The partnership between HPE and Veeam is evolving to address the challenges faced by enterprises in protecting and restoring data in mixed and hybrid cloud environments. With a focus on trust, resilience, and availability as essential components in today’s business landscape, the strengthened collaboration aims to empower organizations to safeguard, recover, and leverage their data wherever it resides.
One of the key updates includes new Veeam integrations for hybrid cloud workloads, such as the introduction of a native integration plug-in for HPE Morpheus VM Essentials Software. This enhancement offers image-level backup for virtual machines on VM Essentials, streamlining the process of securing mixed workloads without the need for additional custom setup.
Additionally, HPE has validated Morpheus Enterprise Software container services as a Veeam-ready option, simplifying the security of container-based workloads with reduced manual effort. The collaboration also extends to HPE Private Cloud Business Edition, enabling enterprises to deploy it alongside the Veeam Data Platform to replace fragmented data protection setups and streamline data format consistency across VMware and VM Essentials.
In terms of storage efficiency, Veeam Data Platform now leverages the latest version of HPE StoreOnce Catalyst, delivering significant data reduction for backups and enhancing data restore speeds. This enhancement is particularly beneficial for organizations operating both cloud and on-premises systems, reducing storage costs and facilitating faster recovery times.
Furthermore, the support for HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 is expanding, with the addition of NVMe support and new snapshot integrations to shorten backup windows and enable near real-time workload recovery. The partnership also includes the release of new reference architectures to provide end-to-end immutability in the Alletra Storage MP line, reducing the risk of ransomware and accidental data loss.
To complement these technical enhancements, HPE and Veeam are offering new joint services, including a Data Resilience and Security Posture workshop and a Disaster Recovery Capability Maturity Analysis based on Veeam’s Data Resiliency Maturity Model. These services aim to help organizations assess the strength of their cyber resilience plans and identify potential gaps, aligning with HPE’s broader Cybersecurity Services portfolio.
Overall, the collaborative efforts between HPE and Veeam seek to simplify hybrid cloud and modern application environments for customers, delivering enhanced resiliency, operational simplicity, and innovation. By offering unified data protection solutions and comprehensive services, the partnership enables IT teams to mitigate risks and manage diverse workloads more efficiently.
