Veeam's Data Platform is integrating with Hewlett Packard Enterprise’s (HPE) Morpheus VM Essentials software to provide a unified approach to protecting modern applications and data.
The integration, together with Veeam Kasten – a data management platform that provides backup and recovery – enables organisations to manage and support a range of workloads, including bare metal, virtualised and containerised environments.
Veeam will also deliver its VM data resilience capabilities to VM Essentials with full fidelity Veeam Data Platform image-based backup support in the near term.
The company says that by doing so, customers can take advantage of unified multi-hypervisor protection and VM mobility, as well as up to a 90 percent reduction in VM license costs.
HPE and Veeam also announced a new joint framework - ‘Data Resilience by Design’ – that aims to empower enterprises to adopt a proactive stance on data security and availability, utilising HPE's cybersecurity and cyber resilience transformation and readiness services.
HPE CTO and EVP of hybrid cloud, Fidelma Russo, said data is an organisation’s most valuable asset – and often its most vulnerable.
“With our deep partnership and integration, HPE and Veeam are delivering unified virtualisation and data protection that is future-ready, giving customers the resiliency and agility to evolve their hybrid IT strategy,” she said.
Veeam CEO Anand Eswaran said data resilience can no longer be an afterthought.
“Our enhanced partnership ensures organisations can deploy enterprise-grade virtualisation solutions from HPE with Veeam backup, recovery, security and intelligence for maximum data resilience that keeps businesses running,” said Anand.
