[Feature Request] Veeam Calculator API

Post by Gunnersaurus »

It would be great to have access to an API for the Veeam Calculator to generate estimated requirements for given workloads.

Example use case:
The company I work for has developed their own calculator tool used across a wide range of products and services they provide to customers. They provide Veeam as a Managed Backup service and in their calculator some reverse engineering was needed through trial and error to try and determine the formulas being used by the official Veeam calculator. Without knowing for sure what is going on in the backend, this has proved difficult and the values don’t always match up.

Having an API would open up the possibility for any third-party developed tool to accurately generate requirements for Veeam products, also ensuring any changes to the Veeam calculator in the future are reflected.

Hi Gunnersauraus,

If you’re referring to an API in https://www.veeam.com/calculators, R&D doesn’t maintain this calculator. It's another group at Veeam.
I recommend posting your request in our Community Hub, where the calculator team is active.

Best,
