It’s been a busy couple of weeks for the cloud teams launching fresh variations of our native backup and recuperation solutions for AWS, Search engines Cloud, and Microsoft Azure now!

 <strong>     Veeam Back-up      <em>     for Microsoft Azure     </em>      v4     </strong>      several significant capabilities which have been put into help customers protect even more of these Microsoft Azure atmosphere, enhance safety and streamline usability. Let’s jump directly into a few of the new key features.

 <h2>          <span id="Azure_Files_backup">     Azure Files back-up     </span>          </h2>     

Azure Files is really a simple solution to use managed document shares inside the cloud, quickly accessed using NFS and SMB protocols without hidden IaaS VMs or NAS to configure and manage. Because of this service’s simpleness and ease, Azure Files adoption fast is growing.

Just like together with your document shares in premises (and any cloud information), Azure Files needs security, and version 4 of Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure delivers it!

Protecting Azure Documents with Veeam is simply as easy since it is regarding Azure VMs and Azure SQL because of policy-based automation. Basically walk through the plan creation wizard to:

 <ol>          <li>     Specify policy explanation     </li>      and name
 <li>     Select which regions and Azure Data files relating to the policy     </li>     
 <li>     Define daily, monthly and every week scheduling     </li>     
 <li>     Look at your estimated monthly expenses     </li>     
 </ol>     

Below is a screenshot showing how easy it is to specify scheduling – in this full case, my daily settings.

 <div class="wp-block-image">          <figure class="aligncenter size-full is-resized">          <a href="https://infracom.com.sg/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/VBAWS40-01.png" data-wpel-link="internal" target="_blank" rel="follow noopener">          <img src="https://infracom.com.sg/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/VBAWS40-01.png" alt class="wp-image-149493 lazyload" width="715" height="473" loading="lazy" />          <img src="https://infracom.com.sg/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/VBAWS40-01.png" alt class="wp-image-149493" width="715" height="473" data-eio="l" />          </a>          </figure>          </div>     

The magic will come in when we begin looking at the recuperation aspect really, though. Veeam’s Azure Documents backup shall index all the data stored inside the share when getting protected. This means you obtain easy lookup and discovery of data files and folders by way of a web-based portal and will then perform quick, granular recovery of these to the same place or to a fresh one.

 <div class="wp-block-image">          <figure class="aligncenter size-full is-resized">          <a href="https://infracom.com.sg/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/VBAWS40-02.png" data-wpel-link="internal" target="_blank" rel="follow noopener">          <img src="https://infracom.com.sg/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/VBAWS40-02.png" alt class="wp-image-149507 lazyload" width="715" height="460" loading="lazy" />          <img src="https://infracom.com.sg/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/VBAWS40-02.png" alt class="wp-image-149507" width="715" height="460" data-eio="l" />          </a>          </figure>          </div>     

 <h2>          <span id="New_dashboard">     New dashboard     </span>          </h2>     

Veeam Back-up for Microsoft Azure also offers a totally new dashboard. This dashboard provides at-a-glance information to improve the management of the backup environment further.

With the brand new dashboard, you obtain an all-in-one view of the way the environment is operating, including granular info on the true amount of snapshots created, how much storage has been used, and just how many protected workloads is there, and more. It is a excellent insight into understanding what’s being safeguarded, and what, if any mistakes, there may be.

My favorite recent addition though is effortlessly the brand new bottlenecks overview since it will provide you with that insight into how your environment is performing so that you can optimize set up and policy construction to lessen backup windows with better success rates.

 <div class="wp-block-image">          <figure class="aligncenter size-full is-resized">          <a href="https://infracom.com.sg/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/VBAWS40-03.png" data-wpel-link="internal" target="_blank" rel="follow noopener">          <img src="https://infracom.com.sg/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/VBAWS40-03.png" alt class="wp-image-149521 lazyload" width="715" height="473" loading="lazy" />          <img src="https://infracom.com.sg/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/VBAWS40-03.png" alt class="wp-image-149521" width="715" height="473" data-eio="l" />          </a>          </figure>          </div>     

 <h2>          <span id="Configuration_backup">     Configuration back-up     </span>          </h2>     

As the usage of Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure scales, ensuring the configuration of the applying itself is recoverable plus protected can be critical. With v4, now you can back up all of the configuration configurations – including stuff like polices – and recover them in case of accidental deletion, disaster, migration and much more.

Let’s have a look at this inside the UI.

 <div class="wp-block-image">          <figure class="aligncenter size-full is-resized">          <a href="https://infracom.com.sg/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/VBAWS40-04.png" data-wpel-link="internal" target="_blank" rel="follow noopener">          <img src="https://infracom.com.sg/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/VBAWS40-04.png" alt class="wp-image-149535 lazyload" width="715" height="473" loading="lazy" />          <img src="https://infracom.com.sg/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/VBAWS40-04.png" alt class="wp-image-149535" width="715" height="473" data-eio="l" />          </a>          </figure>          </div>     

By selecting construction backup from the settings, it is possible to create a schedule in order that regular backups are taken, in addition to perform restores from possibly the latest or earlier restore points. Choosing to revive opens the construction restore wizard that allows one to also import prior backups from other conditions.

 <h2>          <span id="Private_network_deployment">     Private system deployment     </span>          </h2>     

The ultimate feature I’m likely to discuss this is actually the capability to deploy Veeam Back-up for Microsoft Azure within an all-private network infrastructure. Without for everyone, this capacity was up there one of many feature requests from customers in the financial room and also large enterprises, helping market an better backup environment even.

 <h2>          <span id="Summary">     Summary     </span>          </h2>
