Veeam to showcase new availability suite at GITEX

Abu Dhabi / Emirates Business

Veeam® Software, the innovative provider of solutions that deliver Availability for the Always-On Enterprise™, has reiterated its commitment to helping Middle East enterprises meet the requirements for round-the-clock availability by announcing its participation at GITEX Technology Week, which will be held between 16-20 October, 2016 at the Dubai World Trade Centre. The company will be showcasing its NEW Veeam Availability Suite 9.5, an upgraded version of the earlier solution that delivers recovery time and point objectives (RTPO™) of less than 15 minutes for all applications and data, ensuring they are accessible whenever and wherever they are needed.
A BIG focus at GITEX this year will be on building awareness about the newly launched ‘Veeam Availability Platform for the Hybrid Cloud’. Gregg Petersen, Regional Director, MEA and SAARC, Veeam Software says, “Organizations are modernizing their data centers while facing new demands from end users – including access to data and applications 24/7, no patience for downtime or data loss, and exponential data growth of 30 to 50 percent per year. Legacy backup cannot meet these requirements, and cannot deliver the availability that is needed in today’s modern data center. In fact, as per Veeam’s latest Availability Report, 82 percent of CIOs say there is a gap between the level of data center availability they provide and what end-users demand. This availability gap costs enterprises up to $16 million a year in lost revenue and productivity, in addition to the negative impact on customer confidence and brand integrity.”
Veeam Availability Suite 9.5 will introduce new features including expanded storage snapshot integration to Nimble Storage, cloud restore for ANY Veeam backup, a technology partnership with Microsoft designed to modernize the organization’s private cloud platform and enterprise applications, and enhanced VMware vCloud Director support for service providers. With the newly launched ‘Veeam Availability Platform for the Hybrid Cloud’, the company delivers the next generation of availability for virtual, physical, and cloud-based workloads to enable the Always-On Enterprise.
