Let’s face it, for an IT administrator, recovery is a big part of your world. Over the years, I’ve seen exhaustion and fatigue on the faces of IT staff struggling to recover their business applications and data after unplanned system disruptions. In the IT arena, ever-increasing demands and expectations are setting the bar higher, and fast recovery is a key to success.

Veeam’s deep integration with NetApp enables businesses to leverage storage snapshots to create application consistent backups to fast SAN/NAS based repositories. As a result, IT administrators avoid the pain, frustration and exhaustion often experienced when in “recovery mode.”

Today’s businesses are becoming increasingly digital and moving more operations to the cloud. As a result, Availability and reliability are top priorities. Many organizations automatically back up their data and applications, but they realize that backing up is insufficient protection against catastrophic loss. For example, backup recovery points might be as many as 24 hours apart, meaning a business could lose an entire day of data. In addition, recovery is often limited to data restoration. Applications and VMs still need to be reconstructed manually, further delaying recovery.
