The company was founded in 2006 by the team previously behind Aelita Software, well known for its Windows Server management solutions. In 2008, Veeam acquired nworks, adding solutions that bridge the gap between VMware and enterprise management systems from Microsoft and HP.
Veeam is rapidly expanding its presence and its partner network around the world and will continue to offer innovative and practical solutions to help IT professionals better manage their virtual infrastructure. Today the company focuses on managing VMware, but as customer requirements grow, Veeam will support other virtual environments.
vPower
vPower is Veeam's vision for data protection in the virtual world and the Veeam technology that makes that vision a reality. vPower leverages the virtual environment and Veeam innovation to take data protection to the next level and do things never before possible.
vPower eliminates the fundamental shortcomings of traditional backup to reduce the cost, ensure the reliability and increase the value of data protection and disaster recovery. vPower includes the ability to:
- Publish a compressed and deduplicated backup as a regular VMDK file
- Run a VM directly from a backup — without modifying the backup in any way
- Automatically create an isolated environment for application-item recovery, recovery verification and testing/troubleshooting
SureBackup
You must be able to rely on your backups. That means ensuring backups complete on time, every time. It means properly quiescing applications before a hot backup. And it means verifying not just the integrity of the backup file, but your ability to recover from it. SureBackup provides 100% reliability with capabilities like:
Recovery verification patent-pending Automatically verify the recoverability of EVERY backup, of EVERY virtual machine, EVERY time. Veeam Backup & Replication automates the recovery verification process, using available resources in your existing production or test environment. It creates a VM in an isolated environment and runs it directly from the backup file. It starts the VM, boots the OS and confirms that everything is running normally.

InstantRestore
With Veeam Backup & Replication you can quickly restore exactly what you need...whether that's the entire VM, a particular VMDK file, or specific application or user data. InstantRestore capabilities include:
Instant VM Recovery patent-pending Run a VM directly from a compressed and deduplicated backup file on regular backup storage. This eliminates the need to extract the backup and copy it to production storage — you simply start the VM from the backup. So if a VM goes down, you can restart it on any host in a matter of minutes. It's like having a "temporary spare" for your VMs.
U-AIR™(Universal Application-Item Recovery) patent-pending Recover individual objects from any virtualized application, on any OS by running the application from a backup in an isolated environment. It's a brand-new solution to the age-old problem of what to do when users accidentally delete important emails or scripts incorrectly update records.
Instant File-Level Recovery (IFLR) Quickly recover an individual file from a regular image-level backup. You can restore individual files in seconds from a backup or from a replica to the latest state or any point in time. IFLR is available for any virtualized file system.
SmartCDP
With virtualization, you can implement near-continuous data protection for a fraction of the cost of traditional CDP. And you can further reduce costs with 2-in-1 backup and replication from Veeam.
5-minute RTO and RPO
Veeam Backup & Replication leverages the latest technological advancements in VMware vSphere 4 and vStorage — including Changed Block Tracking and thin-provisioned disks — to deliver unprecedented replication speed. You can capture changes and update VM images as often as every few minutes. If a VM goes down, you can immediately fail over to a ready-to-start replica. With Veeam, you can:
- Replicate on-site for high availability, off-site for disaster recovery.
- Replicate and fail over individual VMs — a big improvement over traditional CDP.
- Roll back to a previous replica, thus providing protection against hardware and software failures.
