VB for Microsoft Azure Application-Aware Processing

[NLO_elisa]

Will Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure ever support Application-Aware Processing?

Our PDC is running in Microsoft Azure, it would be handy if we could initiate Non-Authoritative restore on the PDC in Azure if something goes wrong, so it could replicate from other domain controllers without the need to do a fresh install and clean up server metadata.

At this moment we still have to backup our on-premise ADC with Application-Aware Processing.

Currently restoring DC with Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure will result in USN rollback.
What is current best practice to backup and restore DC in Azure with Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure?

Kind regards

Certainly, moreover I believe this is coming in the immediate next release and will be based on the same proven application-aware processing components used by Veeam Backup & Replication. However I need the PM for this product to confirm for sure, because I might be confused with multiple development branches they have, and what branch is what release

Hi,
Any news about release date with application-aware processing components?

[nielsengelen]

No date yet. Once we get closer to it, we will update the topic.

Has this changed yet?
I see there is some level of application awareness for the Veeam for AWS offering but it seems limited to EC2 instances running Windows.
Thanks.

@mfongemie Not yet but it is still on the roadmap and coming. We'll update here once it is available.
