Need immutability but don’t have the in-house skills to create and manage a Linux-based Veeam hardened repository?
The list of solutions that have immutability for Veeam Backup & Replication with Windows-based backup repositories is pretty short. If you want to keep your Veeam Backup & Replication backup storage on MS Windows, and still have immutable backups, consider Pure Storage FlashArray//C for your backup storage.
Here are six reasons to consider Pure Storage FlashArray//C with Veeam Backup & Replication for immutable backups:
Enable data immutability for increased security. FlashArray//C, with its immutable SafeMode storage snapshots, provides immutability for Veeam Backup & Replication backup repositories. Simply set up a schedule of SafeMode snapshots for your backup repository storage volumes and specify the duration of the immutability to protect your backups from both malicious and accidental threats.
Reduce data to optimize capacity. The FlashArray Purity operating system performs compression and granular data deduplication to achieve 67-75% data reduction. Additionally, the storage efficiencies of the ReFS Block Cloning file system improves overall data reduction and total cost of ownership.
Get industry-leading customer support. Pure1, Pure’s AI-driven data-services platform, delivers proactive monitoring and support to identify and resolve issues before customers are even aware of the issue. This, along with the quality of their storage products, is a major contributor to Pure’s unmatched Net Promoter Score of over 85.
Vertically integrated DirectFlash modules are managed directly by the Purity OS, ensuring consistent performance and optimized costs at the media level.
Evergreen portfolio provides flexible consumption options ranging from all-CapEx to all-OpEx, and a hybrid model in the middle, where hardware is capex and software is OpEx.
Customers praise the ease of deployment and ease of use, resulting in savings on operational expenses.

If you have a requirement for immutability but are not comfortable creating and managing a Linux-based Veeam hardened repository, then consider Pure Storage FlashArray//C for your Veeam Backup & Replication backup storage.
Cloud deployments are continuing to gain massive popularity, accelerated by the desire to modernize, evolving telework trends, and cost concerns. While not an exhaustive list of reasons, cloud platforms are here to stay. Eighty-one percent of surveyed organizations leveraged multi-cloud strategies last year. Additionally, Flexera’s 2020 State of the Cloud Survey found that 93% of respondents plan to implement multi-cloud. That said, what’s all the buzz about? We’ll dive into the ins and outs of multi-cloud, how you can implement it, and its inherent benefits. What is multi-cloud infrastructure? Companies, and especially larger enterprises, quickly find that their workflows require more than a one-size-fits-all tooling approach. Settling for one vendor’s product, while a unified strategy, can prevent teams from accomplishing important tasks efficiently. Therefore, multi-cloud involves using solutions from at least two cloud vendors simultaneously. Research from three years ago, howe...
Before Veeam Backup & Replication v11, the product used SQL Server to create and store its configuration database. It has always been possible to use SQL Server Express to store a Veeam Backup & Replication, however, this version of SQL Server had some critical limitations. In the 2022 version of SQL Server Express, the most relevant limitations were: Use of one socket or four cores Use of only 1.4GB per instance 10GB limit for databases In an environment of 500 machines or fewer, these limitations may not have an impact, but if you have a large backup environment, you had to migrate to one of the paid SQL Server versions to avoid these limitations. You can check the limits for each version of SQL Server 2022 by clicking this link . For V12 and with scalability, performance and licensing cost in mind, Veeam introduced the possibility of using PostgreSQL as a configuration database. PostgreSQL is a relational database management system that’s been used for over 35 years...
For those of us who have been in the business of backing up data for a while, we’re used to making copies of data on different types of media. I won’t date myself by mentioning reel-to-reel tapes, but the journey started with tape and then backing up data to block/file-based disk storage came along. More recently, a new kid on the block has become a popular destination for backed up data, object storage. Veeam started to use object storage as a target when we released Veeam Backup & Replication 9.5 Update 4 in January 2019 by introducing our use of AWS S3 compliant object storage via the Capacity Tier. A year later, we launched Veeam Backup & Replication v10 which featured support for object locking to provide data immutability for object storage. Immutability provides protection from ransomware attacks by locking the objects which prevents them from being modified or deleted by malicious software or humans. Today, Veeam Backup & Replication is protecting hundreds of petab...
