Posted by Mumbai: Backup, recovery and data management solutions provider Veeam and Lenovo have partnered for adding data protection to its new BaaS solution. Veeam added its data protection to Lenovo’s new TruScale Backup-as-a-Service (BaaS) solution.
Veeam and Lenovo bring a unified solution
With the data protection solution added to TruScale, Veeam will provide Lenovo users with ‘pay as you go’ BaaS via Lenovo’s Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) platform. The unified solution is designed to modernise enterprises’ data protection strategy, and help manage exploding data volumes.
And it will handle the increased performance and multi-workload availability demands of today’s infrastructure, while also lowering the total cost of ownership (TCO) with a flexible cost model, the company said.
“From resource constraints to ransomware attacks, IT organisations are faced with the constant risk of downtime and data loss,” said John Jester, CRO – Veeam.
“As a leader of Modern Data Protection, we’re proud to be a part of Lenovo TruScale to deliver expert-built and managed BaaS and Disaster Recovery-as-a-Service (DraaS),” added Jester.
This new Veeam and Lenovo solution, according to Jester will help enterprises reduce the complexity of modernising their data protection strategy from legacy solutions and ensure confidence in the protection of their data.
“They can focus on what matters most — their customers, innovation and strategic initiatives to propel their business forward,” added Jester.
The new enterprise-level modern data protection leverages Lenovo ThinkSystem servers and DE, DM storage series combined with Veeam Backup & Replication.
This optimised solution for daily IT requirements maximises availability and simplicity with highly efficient performance and robust data management. Key capabilities of Lenovo TruScale BaaS with Veeam include:
Reliable Recovery: Reduce time spent managing and operating with lower TCO; Verified recoverability and reduced downtime; Dependable data access and data re-use
Digital Resiliency: Rapid and flexible recoveries; disaster recovery; ransomware resiliency
Protection for Data Centre, Edge and Cloud: Consistent protection across any environment; data mobility and protection across clouds; reduced cost and complexity
Data Sovereignty: primary storage target on-site for regulatory compliance and complete control
“We are excited to have Veeam as a key element of the Lenovo TruScale platform to help customers accelerate their digital transformation and innovate faster,” said Dale Aultman, TruScale and Managed Services, Solutions and Services Group, Lenovo.
“Lenovo TruScale delivers the devices, infrastructure, services and solutions, from pocket to cloud, that our customers need, with the simplicity and flexibility of a scalable consumption model,” added Aultman.
With this partnership, Veeam has become the first data protection partner of Lenovo. “Veeam is the first data protection partner being added to TruScale for Data Management portfolio, allowing customers to control their data while letting Lenovo manage the infrastructure,” explained Aultman.
He further informed that this partnership provides customers with robust and reliable data protection and data loss prevention, future-proofing their businesses as they digitalise.
The general availability of TruScale Backup-as-a-Service with Veeam is expected in 2023 via Lenovo.
