VMworld, San Francisco, August 30, 2010 – Veeam Software, innovative provider of VMware data protection, disaster recovery and VMware management solutions for virtual datacenter environments, is demonstrating its new vPower technology for Virtualization-Powered Data Protection this week at VMworld 2010. vPower leverages virtualization and Veeam innovation to overcome the limitations of traditional backup and provide fast, flexible and reliable recovery for disasters both large and small. The new patent-pending vPower technology, previously announced by Veeam in March, includes the ability to run a virtual machine (VM) in production or in an isolated virtual lab directly from a compressed and deduplicated backup file on regular backup storage. vPower is the force behind the upcoming release of Veeam Backup & Replication v5. With five patents pending, v5 with vPower offers these five industry firsts:
Veeam Backup & Replication v5 also includes new Instant Indexing of Windows guest files, “tape-friendly” synthetic full backups, and enhanced deduplication and faster off-site replication. “Data protection and recovery are in the midst of major change,” said Chris Wolf, research vice president at Gartner®. “We now expect archived data to be accessible and just as dynamic as our virtual infrastructures. Tomorrow’s leaders in data protection and recovery are those who intelligently leverage virtual hard disk archives to satisfy all recovery tasks from a single protection operation. This includes instant image recovery, file and object recovery, user self-service recovery and rich verification capabilities.” “vPower is Virtualization-Powered Data Protection that combines the power of virtualization and Veeam’s innovation,” explained Ratmir Timashev, Veeam President and CEO. “With vPower we are taking VMware data protection to a new level and making things possible that were not possible before. In addition, vPower is our breakthrough technology, as well as a set of unique industry-changing capabilities enabled by this technology. vPower allows IT to provide much better service at a much lower cost. We believe the unique capabilities that we are introducing provide the major reasons to virtualize more enterprise applications and accelerate virtualization within enterprise environments.” Pricing and Availability Veeam Backup & Replication v5 with vPower will be generally available in October 2010. North American pricing starts at $599 USD per socket for Standard Edition and $899 USD for Enterprise Edition. Customer licenses under maintenance as of June 30, 2010, are eligible for a free upgrade to Enterprise Edition.
