Rob Galt, think S3 CTO had this to say about the latest integration “We’re really looking forward to being able to offer this advanced level of backup integration between Veeam and Nimble which will reduce the impact of backups and complement our hybrid cloud backup and storage offering that uses the same technology”

By further leveraging IT investments in modern storage, the new integrations with Nimble Storage will move enterprises beyond backup and into the new era of Availability, helping them to meet recovery time and point objectives (RTPO™) of less than 15 minutes for all applications and data. These include:

1. Backup from storage snapshots

Lower the additional impact from backup activities on production storage by retrieving virtual machine (VM) data from Nimble Storage snapshots on primary storage or their replicated copies on secondary storage;

2. Veeam Explorer™ for Storage Snapshots

Recover individual application items, guest files or entire VMs quickly and efficiently from periodic Nimble Storage snapshots and their replicated copies created by Veeam jobs or with the native scheduler;

3. On-Demand Sandbox™ for Storage Snapshots

Use storage snapshots on primary and secondary storage systems to create complete isolated copies of production environment in just a few clicks, for fast and easy developing, testing and troubleshooting.
