VeeamON 2019 Recap

By on May 28, 2019 in Veeam

Last week Veeam held its annual conference VeeamON in Miami at the FountainBlue Hotel! And what a venue it was.  This has to be the nicest venue I have attended a conference in. The event opened with the General Session with Ratmir Timashev announcing Veeam has become a $1billion software company!  What an achievement for a company started just over 10 years ago.  Ratmir talks about how sucesful Veeam has become and how that was Act 1.  Moving forward with Act 2, Veeam is focused on becoming the #1 Cloud Data Management Platform.  This is an important step in helping customers manage and secure data in a Multi Cloud World.

One of the cool use features in N2WS Backup and Recovery is the ability to automate adding your EC2 instances to your backup policies. By leveraging tags this allows you to launch EC2 instances and assign them specific tags and never worry about those instances being protected. This works across AWS accounts too. Whats makes this even easier is when your using something like cloud formation to deploy anything in EC2 you can just have these tags propagated immediately. Lets take a quick look at how we do this. First we need to make sure that N2WS Backup and Recovery is configured for tag scanning.  This is really simple.  Go to General Settings Locate Tag Scan and turn Scan Resources to Enabled You can specify how long the scan interval is.  Default is 6 hours. Once you have this configured, you need to define the tags in EC2.  How this […]
