Veeam Replication speed

Post by tidalnz »

Is anyone running larger (300 + VM) Clusters on Hyper-V and using Veeam for DR and orchestration? I am most interested in Replication speed.

In my experience it's always been comparatively slower (hyper-v replica, san to san, zerto, etc)


I guess I am asking what is the best hardware configuration to achieve the lowest RTPOs with Veeam replication? What is achievable?

thanks

You're comparing apples to oranges I'm afraid, streaming replication vs. snapshot-based. The latter is simply not designed for low RPO, usually our customers run it every 15 min or less often.

Veeam CDP is a streaming replication so it would have been the right comparison if it supported Hyoer-V.

Hi Gostev,

Thanks for your reply. Also, I've been a fan of yours for a LONG time!

Does Veeam have something in the works for Hyper-V that is equivalent to Veeam CDP for VMWare?
