V8 enriches these core functionalities, allowing for deeper integration into our platform solutions protecting Microsoft 365, AWS, and Azure, alongside virtual machines protected by Veeam Backup & Replication and agents. More importantly, this version allows for the first time the self-service management of backup jobs on hosted Backup & Replication IaaS platforms.

Deeper Dive into Key Features

Proactive Security Measures: The integration with Veeam Data Platform for enhanced malware detection and security alerting signifies our commitment to bolstering your defenses against emerging threats which in turns adds additional value to your service offerings for your tenants and partners. This feature works with enhancements in Backup & Replication v12.1 to provide service providers with the tools needed to monitor and warn tenants about suspicious activities allowing a response.

Operational Efficiency: We have streamlined the support ticket creation process and managed infrastructure monitoring to save valuable time and resources. The automated log collection and ticket submission feature, coupled with the already existing Veeam Intelligent Diagnostics, underscores our dedication to simplifying your operations. By allowing the creation of tickets from within the Console’s UI and connecting through to Veeam Customer Support Portal for validation of support, multiple steps have been streamlined to get potential cases logged and solved quicker.

Multi-Tenant Environment Mastery: V8 introduces refined capabilities for managing multi-tenant environments, making it easier to assign backup jobs, generate reports, and invoice tenants. This has been a much sought after feature and is a great first step as the console becomes an even more powerful self-service tool for service providers. It ensures they can offer more personalized, efficient services to their clients while allowing them to take control of specific backup configurations.

RESTful API Innovations: With the understanding that service providers want to continue to programmatically access data from the Service Provider Console while also extended their own automation capabilities, the expansion of API endpoints continues to allow our service providers to be more flexible and in control of their self-service capabilities, enabling integrations with existing systems and facilitating the automation of key processes.
