Veeam participated in HPE Tech Jam Orlando 2026 as a Silver Sponsor, reinforcing its strategic alliance with HPE and underscoring its joint commitment to advancing innovation in cyber resilience and data protection.
The Veeam team delivered a special breakout session titled “Securing Your Hybrid Cloud with Veeam and HPE”. The session demonstrated how the Veeam Data Platform integrates seamlessly with HPE Private Cloud and storage solutions to protect hybrid environments, covering virtual, physical, and containerized workloads.
Attendees of this session explored the expanding HPE and Veeam partnership, which included new support for HPE Morpheus VM Essentials Software and V13 enhancements across backup, recovery, and management.
The session also emphasized advanced threat detection, secure recovery, and intelligence-driven insights, enabling organizations to respond to cyberattacks with greater confidence. In addition, the recent acquisition of Securiti AI accelerated the integration of artificial intelligence into data security, privacy, and governance across both production and backup environments.
Complementing this session, the HPE team delivered numerous hands-on labs, live demos, workshops, and breakout sessions showcasing multiple HPE and Veeam integrations. I can highlight the following sessions:
- Walk-in Hands-On Lab: “HPE VME Image-Based Backup with CBT-Based Incremental on Veeam and HPE StoreOnce”. This hands-on lab covered the recently released CBT-based incremental integration for HPE VME with Veeam 13.0.1 and HPE StoreOnce Gen5. Participants configured image-based backups, validated restore scenarios, and monitored HPE StoreOnce workload and Catalyst source-side deduplication to assess performance and efficiency.
- Workshop session: “Implementing HPE Morpheus VM Essentials Software and Private Cloud Business Edition Solution”. Working through a scenario in which a customer is evaluating alternative hypervisors, the participants became confident in positioning, describing, and demonstrating a comprehensive HPE Private Cloud Business Edition with Alletra Storage MP B10000 VME-based solution. Working with various tools, they learned how to assess, size, and demonstrate this solution, as well as data protection with Veeam and HPE StoreOnce.
- Demo Theater: “Backup & Restore at Lightning Speed – HPE DPA/X10000”. A demonstration session to discover real-world performance results with HPE DPA/X10000 integrated with Veeam and another ISV partner. Live examples that redefine the meaning of high performance in data protection were delivered, showcasing backup and restore speeds that set a new benchmark for cyber resilience and operational efficiency.
- Breakout Session: “Protect HPE Private Cloud Business Edition to Deliver Cyber Resilience”. This session focused on wrapping Veeam solutions around HPE Private Cloud Business Edition. Participants learned that the latest backup solutions for HPE VM Essentials can be leveraged to protect PCBE deployments. It was also highlighted that the cyber resilience mechanisms PCBE offers drive superior recoverability and protection.
- Breakout Session: “Addressing Every RPO and RTO Requirement with the HPE Data Protection Portfolio”. This explained how HPE, with Veeam and other ISVs, delivers an end-to-end portfolio, from snapshots and backup to ultra-low RPO. The session dived deep into the technical advantages of HPE Alletra MP B10000, HPE StoreOnce, HPE X10000, and HPE Cyber Resilient Vault, concluding with an interactive ransomware recovery quiz.
- Breakout Session: “From Risk to Resilience: Competitive Strategies for Data Protection Leadership”. This session explained how HPE Alletra Storage MP X10000 and StoreOnce work together to deliver accelerated backup and restore at scale. We cover new StoreOnce platforms, deep integration with Veeam and another ISV partner, and the role of the X10000 Data Protection Accelerator (DPA).
- Breakout Session: “How to Wrap Data Protection and Cyber Resilience Around Your B10000 Solutions”. This session showed why storage snapshots consistently outperform traditional backups in Veeam and other ISV partner use cases, and how software-managed immutable snapshots deliver decisive advantages for ransomware recovery. Participants learned how to integrate primary storage with data protection to enhance value to the customers.
In addition, HPE provided participants at HPE Tech Jam with free access to proctored exams, including the “HPE Solution Certified – Data Protection” certification exam. This certification, in particular, validates the professionals’ ability to apply core data protection concepts and technologies (including Veeam) and demonstrates skills in solution design, sizing, and validation to ensure that HPE data protection architectures meet customer requirements.
