How I Migrated Veeam Backup & Replication for Supermercados BH
Recently, I had the opportunity to lead a challenging project for Supermercados BH, one of the largest supermarket chains in Brazil. The mission? To migrate the entire Veeam Backup & Replication environment to a new server, rebuilding everything from scratch. Instead of simply restoring the old configuration, we chose to redesign the architecture to optimize performance, security, and ensure a more efficient RTO. One of the main concerns was the network design to ensure that backups and restores were fast and efficient. Properly segmenting the traffic, adjusting the transport proxies, and load balancing the repositories made all the difference. Additionally, we implemented an immutable repository based on Linux Red Hat, providing an extra layer of protection against ransomware. Another critical point was backing up critical machines. For this, we configured snapshots via SAN, minimizing the impact on the production environment and speeding up the proc
