Veeam named 2013 HP AllianceOne Partner of the Year

Veeam Software ,innovative provider of backup, replication and virtualisation management solutions for VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V, has been recognised with an HP AllianceOne Partner of the Year Award for Converged Storage at HP Discover in Las Vegas.

The HP AllianceOne Partner of the Year Award for Converged Storage honours Veeam Software for the dramatic improvements in Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) users can achieve by combining Veeam Backup & Replication with HP StoreVirtual Storage and HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage snapshots.

Integrated into Veeam Backup & Replication, Veeam Explorer for SAN Snapshots (http://www.veeam.com/san-snapshots-explorer.html?ad=pr) delivers unique functionality that enables HP StoreVirtual and HP 3PAR StoreServ users to restore VMware virtual machines (VMs), or individual files and emails directly from HP storage snapshots without having to deploy agents on hosts or VMs.

As a result, users experience shorter RTOs for VM, file and application item recovery directly from SAN snapshots. VM snapshots can automatically be migrated to HP StoreOnce Backup Systems or HP StoreEver LTO-6 Tape Storage to meet long term data retention needs. Additionally, the benefits of combining Veeam Backup with HP Converged Storage include significant reductions in backup times and storage consumption. For example, the Vallejo Sanitation & Flood Control District reduced their backup time by 64 percent and their data consumption by 9x using Veeam Backup with HP StoreOnce Backup systems. Veeam Backup & Replication combined with HP Converged Storage delivers powerful, easy-to-use, and affordable modern data protection that is built for virtualisation.

“Veeam views HP as a vital strategic partner,” said Ratmir Timashev, CEO of Veeam Software, “and customers have come to rely on our joint solution to protect their VMware and Hyper-V workloads. Our upcoming release of Veeam Backup & Replication v7 will further strengthen this relationship by adding ability to back up from HP StoreVirtual Storage and HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage snapshots, which will exponentially improve recovery point objectives (RPOs).”

“Veeam is recognised as HP AllianceOne Partner of the Year in the Converged Storage category for their Veeam Backup & Replication which can be combined with HP StoreVirtual Storage and HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage snapshots to quickly and efficiently restore individual files and emails,” said Doug Oathout, vice president, Channel and Alliances, Enterprise Marketing, HP. “Veeam has demonstrated their expertise in this area by developing this innovative backup and recovery solution for its customers, paving the way for more agile business.”
