[New] Grafana Dashboard for Veeam Backup for AWS v3

Post by jorgedlcruz » 4 people like this post

Hi everyone, Veeam Backup for AWS v3 was announced not that long ago, and with that a rev 1.1 for the API, which looks absolutely superb. So decided to take the new API to a spin and build a Grafana Dashboard for it, so far this is my best one, with a lot of great visibility of all what VBA AWS v3 gives us: EC2, RDS, and VPC.

Grafana Dashboard - Summary of features
  • Summary - Total number of Repositories, Policies, Protected VMs, VBA Appliance version.
  • Unprotected VMs - Both, in one handy list with size, region and name. And with a great visual map to see the unprotected blue regions
  • Job History Information - A simple table with the latest jobs and status, also includes whether it is a snapshot or backup job
  • Duration of Policies - A simple graph showing duration per job over time
  • Protected vs. unprotected VM in a simple pie chart
  • Tables with all the components protected, in a very comfortable way to consume.
When you finish the steps we will have something similar to that Dashboard that will allow you to visualize:

As some of you might not have Grafana, or the time to build all of this, etc, but still want to understand more, and see it live, please watch the next video.

I wrote all the step by step, in English, on the Veeam Community, click here to read.

Let me know your thoughts.
