Explore different tools and methods to maximize environment performance Ensure efficiency by being able to select appropriate transport modes while being aware of the impact of various backup functions on the infrastructure Building replication capabilities Identify and describe the options available for replication and impacts of using them Create and modify replication jobs, outline considerations to ensure success Introduce the new Continuous Data Protection (CDP) policy Secondary backups Simple vs. advanced backup copy jobs, how to create and modify them using best practices to ensure efficient recovery Discuss using tapes for backups Advanced repository capabilities Ensure repository scalability using a capability such as SOBR on-premises and off-site including integration with cloud storage Ensure compatibility with existing deduplication appliances Introduce the new hardened repository Protecting data in the cloud Review how Veeam can protect the data of a cloud native application Review how Veeam Cloud Connect enables you to take advantage of cloud services built on Veeam Review how Veeam can be used to protect your Office 365 data Restoring from backup Ensure you have the confidence to use the correct restore tool at the right time for restoring VMs, bare metal and individual content such as files and folders Utilize Secure Restore to prevent the restoration of malware Describe how to use Staged Restore to comply with things like General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) before releasing restores to production Identify, describe and utilize the different explores and instant recovery tools and features Recovery from replica Identify and describe in detail, failover features and the appropriate usage Develop, prepare and test failover plans to ensure recovery Disaster recovery from replica to meet a variety of real-world recovery needs Testing backup and replication Testing backups and replicas to ensure you can recover, what you need, when you need to Configure and setup virtual sandbox environments based on backup, replicas and storage snapshots Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager and Veeam ONE Introduce the concept of monitoring your virtual, physical and cloud environments with Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager and Veeam ONE? Configuration backup Locate, migrate or restore backup configuration Introduction Veeam Backup & Replication v11: Architecture and Design Review the architecture principles Explore what a successful architecture looks like Review Veeam?s architecture methodology Discovery Analyze the existing environment Uncover relevant infrastructure metrics Uncover assumptions and risks Identify complexity in the environment Conceptual design Review scenario and data from discovery phase Identify logical groups of objects that will share resources based on requirements Create a set of detailed tables of business and technical requirements, constraints, assumptions and risks Review infrastructure data with each product component in mind Create high level design and data flow Logical design Match critical components and features of VBR with requirements Create logical groupings Determine location of components and relationship to logical grouping Aggregate totals of component resources needed per logical grouping Calculate component (storage, CPU, memory) quantity sizing Physical/tangible design Convert the logical design into a physical design Physical hardware sizing Create a list of physical Veeam backup components Implementation and Governance Review physical design and implantation plan Review Veeam deployment hardening Describe the architect?s obligations to the implementation team Provide guidance on implementation specifics that relate to the design Validation and Iteration Provide framework for how to test the design Further develop the design according to a modification scenario
