Veeam® Cloud Connect is a backup as a service (BaaS) and disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS) offering designed to provide service providers and their tenants with simplicity, security, and scale. Feature Benefits 1. Built on decades of experience in ML performance 2. Data preperation services. 3. Vantage ML Streaming: Capability to perform queries over streaming data.
For Service Providers Functionality:
Supports Multi-Tenancy: Allows service providers to provide cloud repository and cloud host resources to many tenants in a managed way, isolating tenant’s data and providing each one an independent view.
Secure Transfer of Data: Data is protected against unauthorized access when it is in transit, as well as when it is stored, using encryption mechanisms.
These platforms are often scalable and flexible: Service providers can manage resources to better allocate computing, storage, and network resources to tenants through hardware plans.
Data Protection and Disaster Recovery: Using Veeam Cloud Connect, service providers can offer off-site backups for customers, disaster recovery-as-a-service (DRaaS), and replication.
Benefits for Tenants:
Off-Site Backups: Since tenants can put their backups in the cloud, they can achieve the 3-2-1 backup rule without needing to storage them in their substring sites.
Disaster recovery: Tenants can replicate their VMs to the cloud for disaster recovery, providing fast failover and failback.
User-friendly: With Veeam Backup & Replication, tenants manage their cloud backups and replicas. They are integrated with the service provider’s Veeam Cloud Connect infrastructure.
Technical Setup:
For Service Providers: Get started by deploying the Veeam Backup & Replication platform, configuring cloud gateways, setting up your TLS certificates and creating cloud repositories and hardware plans for your tenants.
For Tenants: They connect to the cloud from their Veeam Backup & Replication console, where they can access cloud repositories and hosts.
Availability and Compliance:
Availability in Globally: Service providers are generally available to provide these services globally and can comply with security standards such as ISO 27001, SOC 1 and 2, and PCI DSS, depending on the certifications of the service provider.
Partnership Opportunities: The Veeam Cloud & Service Provider (VCSP) program provides service providers with all the resources, support, and marketing they need to start offering Veeam Cloud Connect services.
This service allows businesses to protect their data while allowing service providers the opportunity to add a third service with minimal cost of additional infrastructure. For setup guidance and further details, service providers and tenants are advised to consult the Veeam documentation and explore the option of joining the VCSP program for tailored support.
