Veeam released Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 v7 with immutable backup copies, improved visibility with Veeam ONE, and increased control for Backup-as-a-Service (BaaS).
“Microsoft 365 is at the center of communications for many organizations and protecting that data at the highest level has never been more important,” said Danny Allan, CTO and Senior Vice President of Product Strategy at Veeam.
Highlights of Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 v7, include:
- Immutable backup copies: Confidence that Microsoft 365 data is protected against ransomware attacks. Immutable copies can be stored on any object storage repository, including Microsoft Azure Blob/Archive, Amazon S3/Glacier and S3-compatible storage with support for S3 Object Lock.
- Complete visibility: Integration with Veeam ONE and Veeam Data Platform provides advanced monitoring, reporting and alerts for Microsoft 365 backup environments, ensuring reliability of the complete recovery strategy.
- Increased control for BaaS: Tenants gain more self-service backup, monitoring and restore options to address more day-to-day requirements.
Version 7 provides two integrations with Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365: Veeam ONE and Veeam Service Provider Console. Advanced monitoring and reporting delivered through Veeam ONE v12 allows proactive monitoring of Microsoft 365 backup and storage resources through an at-a-glance dashboard. Users receive alerts to resolve issues immediately and can leverage service level agreement (SLA) reports to ensure compliance and recovery point objectives (RPOs) are met.
The second integration builds upon existing features in Veeam Service Provider Console, which allows organizations to have increased control when leveraging BaaS for Microsoft 365 backups with a Veeam Cloud & Service Provider (VCSP) partner. Tenants will gain the autonomy to create backups, monitor protected data and recover at any time without service provider assistance. Secure onboarding, automated billing and REST API support provides an easier and more seamless adoption experience.
In addition to Microsoft Exchange Online, SharePoint Online and OneDrive for Business, the self-service restore portal now includes support for Microsoft Teams. Users can now choose their own individual restore points as needed and restore SharePoint Online and OneDrive for Business folders.
Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 v7 is available now and may be added to the new Veeam Data Platform Advanced or Premium Editions as a platform extension or operate as a standalone offering.
