V9 Replication to the Cloud

[lobo519]

Any details on service providers for this? We would love to use Veeam to replicate VMs to AWS! Otherwise it looks like I may be forced to into something like HotlLink....

There will be no AWS or Azure support for sure, as service provider part of Veeam Cloud Connect replication requires hypervisor access.

However, most of the current 600+ of Veeam Cloud Connect providers are intended to support replication as well, so there will be a lot for you to choose from. You can browse the current service providers directory to see if any name catches your attention. I know we have some largest VMware and Hyper-V service providers on board already.

Thanks for the info .

Have you guys seen http://www.hotlink.com/technology/dr_express.html ? Partnership/integration?!?!?!

[Gostev]

Yes, I've been monitoring them since they first appeared.
No plans for similar functionality, partnership or integration.

Curious of your thoughts? Do you consider them a competitor?

[Gostev]

Not a competitor all, as we don't have an offering for Amazon. Thus, people who are (for whatever reason) determined to use Amazon for offsite DR will not be able to use Cloud Connect Replication anyway. But for the rest, our solution wins hands down > Veeam Cloud Connect – a customer perspective!
