Abstract
• Veeam® Availability Suite™ v8 leverages NetApp storage snapshots to deliver improved backup and recovery performance on a FlexPod.
• Now you can create true backups and replicas from NetApp storage snapshots as often as you’d like—even during business hours—with little to no impact to your production environment.
• Join us to see how Veeam on a FlexPod, managed with UCS Director, can deliver Availability for the Modern Data Center™ with RPOs and RTOs (RPTO™) of <15 minutes for ALL applications

2nd Generation DP: Regular full backups to Tape
4th Generation DP:Block-incremental-Forever Backups
(often by Client-Dedupe; reduce backup transfer rates, but also impacts Restore & Tape copy performance)
5th Generation DP:Snapshot-based, avoids
undesirable data-movement(Leverage for DP, DR, HA and Test/Dev)
3rd Generation: Incremental / Full Backup2Disk / VTL (Dedupe- and Non-Dedupetargets offer some improvementmulti-threaded bkups)

Challenges:
• Manual processes
• Complex handoffs between teams and domains
• Static resource allocation
Result:
• Days/weeks/months to deploy IT services
• High operational cost
• Rigid silos
• Infrastructure inefficiency and under utilization
