VeeamON 2024 - Use Code "COMMUNITY10" for 10% Off!
Well done @andy.sturniolo !!
Awesome write up @andy.sturniolo its pretty cool how something so simple can be so advanced at the same time. I’d be interested to see how more advanced we can get with YARA rules. It’s something that can be leveraged for much much more than malware too.
Im interested to hear some community opinions. Calling out @Chris.Childerhose @Rick Vanover What type of automation use cases are you guys seeing?
I hope Veeam never drops the free version of VBR 👀 On that note, I would love to see Veeam add support for XCP-NG and proxmox. I will be moving my lab/home network when I buy new hardware this year and I won’t be installing VMware. I have used VMware since the 1.0 days and did hundreds of installs over the years. I am pretty sure Veeam is looking in to Proxmox now to see where that will go. This is me speaking personally and not on behalf of Veeam :) proxmox still has a pretty low market share of around 1-3% with under 7k customers. It would be hard to justify the spend at this moment for the potential return. But keeping eyes on all these potentials are what’s smart and doing some early investigations to what it would take to support when the time is right. It will be interesting to watch this space evolve over the next year and see how the dust settles.
So, we’re down to Proxmox and XCP-NG. Any other options to look at? For free? otherwise there are a few other options, OLVM, KVM, openshift, openstack, HCI, AHV, scale computing, virt.io and a myriad of other vendors. the real problem with all of these and where VMware shined (earlier) was the support. Early on in VMware days there wasn’t any competition, but today there are a lot of options. The problem is support, few enterprises want a support structure for their software, open source projects while good often have little to no support outside of the community aspect. Personal opinion is that if someone came in on top of an open source platform and had a really great support option, they would grab a lot of share.
I hope Veeam never drops the free version of VBR 👀 I dont see us doing that. We love our community.
This is a bit sad, I understand from a business standpoint it doesnt generate immediate revenue and takes up some support resources from time to time. But there are a lot of benefits for doing this, it allows people to learn using the product, and it also seeds the market a bit for smaller environments. Its the old drug dealer method, give them a little bit and get them hooked.
Sweet!!!! Nice work Eric.
I have been using it but then again I am in charge of that technical alliance. Are there any questions that I can help anyone with? I’m curious as to what other use cases anyone may have as well
