Scality RING and ARTESCA are Veeam Ready validated for Veeam 12

23

Scality is excited to announce that both ARTESCA and RING are now Veeam Ready validated for Veeam 12.

Why is this important? It’s confirmation that Scality storage solutions are compatible with Veeam Backup & Replication™ features. 

Being validated as Veeam Ready requires completion of a solution qualification process to assure functional and performance standards are met. By attaining this status, Scality customers and partners can rest assured that we support the features of the latest version of Veeam.

Veeam + Scality: The best in backup and data protection

Having worked closely with Veeam on early access versions of the latest Veeam Ready program, this is further validation of how we at Scality are helping ensure our customers can back up to the best. 

Veeam has been Scality’s #1 data protection partner for years. We help hundreds of Veeam customers manage hundreds of petabytes of backup data every day. Our team worked closely with Veeam product management and engineering to ensure complete support of the many cool features included in the latest version of Veeam Data Platform (v12). In fact, Scality was selected as an inaugural launch partner for the February 2023 release.

Scality supports the following features of Veeam 12:

Feature	Business benefit
Direct to Object Storage	Reduce cost and complexity of infrastructure by eliminating separate storage tiers
Smart Object Storage API (SOSAPI)	Report storage consumption. Alert when storage is becoming full to avoid failed backups
VM Instant Recovery	Reduce RTO Minimize disruption and downtime of production workloads
VM SureBackup	Boots the VMs to validate the backups Scans VMs for Malware
Immutability	Secure backups against undue deletion
IAM/STS secure mode	Enables multi-tenancy on backup repositories Secure access to backup repositories using per-agent user and temp. creds. Direct Object storage access for VCC service providers
Multi-bucket SOBR	Streamline on-prem object resource usage, on performance and capacity tiers
Copy jobs	Minimize load on the production storage Replicate backups with per-machine granularity
Forever incrementals	Efficient storage resource usage. Minimize impact on the production storage Simplified configuration

Diving deeper into Direct to Object Storage and SOSAPI

With Veeam 12, Scality’s products support all tiers of enterprise Veeam deployments: performance, capacity and long-term retention. This simplified architecture and compatibility with Veeam Backup & Replication™ gives customers ultimate flexibility to deploy the architecture best suited for their needs.

SOSAPI allows Veeam and Scality to develop tighter integrations between our products. The screenshot below shows how Scality’s products are now “S3-integrated” with Veeam and allow Veeam to pull capacity information directly from Scality’s products.
