If you haven’t heard, Veeam’s 2017 results are in and the news couldn’t be better. We smashed our targets, achieved $827 million total bookings revenue and grew more than $220 million in a year at an immense 36% YoY growth. Veeam had the best year in the history of the company. We were confident going into 2017, we were even more confident at VeeamON in the spring, but our success has even surpassed what we saw as possible.

2017 has been my first full fiscal year at the company, and during this year, we made a number of bold moves. These moves included a change in our market focus, an increased focus on ... Read more

It’s that time of the year when technologists like myself put our “futurist” hat on, take a moment to reflect on the year that was, and scope out some exciting (and sometimes scary) visions of what the next 12 months will look like.

We are still a ways off from teleportation (a personal favorite) and the replicator (another personal favorite, that is more urgent), so I’ll temper our technology predictions to what we know best: Availability. Predicting the future is always subjective, but forecasting is critical so that we can innovate better solutions and in turn, ensure customers can benefit from new and improved offerings. So here ...

The HPE Discover 2017 event in EMEA was held in Madrid, Spain last week. There, HPE and their partners unveiled a multitude of solutions to help customers capitalize on business opportunities created by the booming amount of data generated by hyper-connected users, applications and devices. Additionally, we heard from HPE senior executives, industry experts and customers on just how disruptive this data deluge can be to organizations, and the need for businesses to drive successful digital transformation initiatives to remain competitive.

This was also something we confirmed in our 2017 Availability Report released earlier this year, that:

It’s been a little over a year since I joined Veeam, and the adage “time flies when you’re having fun” could not be more apt. It seems just yesterday that I was collecting my laptop and addressing my team for the first time! The past 12 or so months have been phenomenal and a truly momentous year for the company. I’d like to say it was all my doing, but the team is outstanding and they have achieved so much to be proud of. Today, Veeam is THE CLEAR MARKET LEADER. You may be saying, “Prove it, Peter,” so let me do just that.

We know our customers are some of ... Read more

Here at Veeam, our alliance partners are at the core of our business, and we continually work together with them to deliver Availability for the Always-On Enterprise. Cisco has been one of our key alliance partners for many years, and in recent months, we further strengthened our partnership through several strategic movements for the benefit of our customers. Earlier in August, we announced that Veeam will be added to the Cisco Global Price List by the end of the year, enabling one-stop shopping: Cisco and its resellers can deliver our Availability solutions together with any Cisco software or hardware product.

In breaking news, last week was a special week for Veeam as we were ... Read more

It’s been a challenging and emotional week. The horrific tragedy in Las Vegas has left us all heartbroken and a bit numb. With NetApp Insight scheduled this week, the decision was made to cancel the first day’s events and activities, but resume the conference and sessions on Tuesday and Wednesday, as planned. I’m sure it was a difficult and delicate decision for our friends at NetApp to make, but they have shown respect, class and leadership to all this week. We are proud to call them partners.

Being with the Veeam team, our partners and customers is the best part of my job, and this week was no different, although it was under very surreal circumstances and a bit more subdued. ... Read more

Cloud adoption is soaring. According to IDC, worldwide spending on public cloud computing will increase from $67 billion in 2015 to $162 billion in 2020, attaining a 19% CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) . The cloud is here to stay, and it’s only going to become more important.

As enterprises move to the cloud, however, ensuring data Availability has become more critical. This includes making sure that users can access information at any time and from anywhere. Veeam is a pioneer in this space, delivering bullet-proof Availability for multi-cloud or hybrid-cloud environments, regardless of whether the environment is private, public, managed or SaaS (Software as a Service). Taking this to the next level, as ... Read more

Cisco is a technology leader with a strong track record of delivering innovative solutions to customers globally. For some time, Cisco has been a key alliance partner for Veeam. Over the past two years, we have completed numerous Cisco Validated Designs (CVDs) to build on our long-lasting technical relationship. Back in March, we announced a significant step forward in our growing partnership when we showcased our direct snapshot integration for Cisco HyperFlex — the first and only one of its kind today.

We are now proud to announce yet another milestone in our strategic partnership with Cisco. Veeam will be added to the Cisco Global Price List by the end of the year. This ... Read more

Today, we saw the publication of the UK Government's Statement of Intent on its forthcoming Data Protection Bill — an interpretation of how the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) will be delivered into UK law.

The materials accompanying the Statement of Intent focus on several key elements of GDPR including:

Based on the requirements of GDPR, which we wholeheartedly support, we believe it is important for businesses to be more accountable for their data processing and management, with data privacy being an obvious priority for all.

We have seen several vendor-backed research reports stating that businesses are a long way off from ... Read more
