Veeam then publishes a virtual machine direct from the backup file which can be brought online just like any other virtual machine. Veeams implementation of this is built on a technology they call Instant VM Recovery. High level, Instant VM Recovery allows you to present NFS storage to the hypervisor environment from the Veeam backup and replication server. OK, the idea of the sandbox environment is not something new, a lot of virtual machine backup vendors offer this kind of functionality these days. Imagine what you could do if those backups could be brought online as virtual machines in an isolated sand box environment. In the case of backup software like Veeam, those backups are very likely to contain a full copy of your production virtual environment, be that VMware or Hyper-V. If you are fortunate, the backup data is likely going to sit and do nothing until it has reached its retention policy and it is deleted again. After that, the data just sits there until such a time that you may need to recover from the backup as the primary source of the data has an issue. If you think about, a backup in its simplest form will likely involve a process of copying data from one location to another and storing it in a propriety format. What on earth am I talking about?įor me at least, it seems to have become a trend in the industry that simply storing ones backups in case of a disaster is not good enough anymore.
