Virtualization books

Protect your cloud, virtual, and on-premises environments by implementing Veeam's powerful backup and replication technologyKey FeaturesGain in-depth knowledge of CDP and hardened repositories that you can use in your virtual environmentExplore Veeam's monitoring and reporting utility - Veeam ONE - along with Linux proxy enhancementsWork with the new Veeam Disaster Recovery Orchestrator (Orchestrator) for testing failovers and backupsBook DescriptionVeeam is one of the leading modern data protection solutions, making it a necessary skill for anyone responsible for securing virtual environments. This revised second edition of Mastering Veeam Backup & Replication is updated to cover Veeam version 11. The book guides you through implementing modern data protection solutions for your cloud and virtual infrastructure with Veeam, all while helping you master advanced concepts such as Continuous Data Protection (CDP), extended object storage support, Veeam ONE enhancements, and Orchestrator.Starting with Veeam essentials, including installation, best practices, and optimizations for Veeam Backup & Replication, you'll get to grips with the 3-2-1-1-0 rule to safeguard data. You'll understand how to set up a backup server, proxies, repositories, and more and then advance to cover a powerful feature of Veeam 11 – CDP. As you progress, you'll learn about immutability (also known as hardened repositories) and discover the best practices for creating them. Finally, you'll explore the new proxy option available in Linux and become well-versed with advanced topics such as extended object storage support, Veeam ONE enhancements, and Orchestrator.By the end of this Veeam book, you'll be able to implement Veeam Backup & Replication for securing your environment and enabling disaster recovery.What you will learnDiscover the advanced concepts of Veeam Backup & Replication 11Master application optimization based on Veeam best practicesGet to grips with configuring CDP and working with repositories and proxiesExplore ways to protect your backups with immutable hardened repositoriesUnderstand the enhancements to backups, instant recovery, and Linux proxiesExplore Veeam ONE enhancementsBecome well-versed in using Veeam Disaster Recovery OrchestratorWho this book is forThis Veeam backup book is for IT professionals who have intermediate to advanced-level knowledge of virtualization as well as backups and backup applications.
