Architecture Overview
Customers that want to use Veeam Backup & Replication with Dell EMC Data Domain should consider
the following guidelines. Specifically, if:
      There is a requirement for high performance with Veeam features that create random I/O like
Instant VM Recovery, Data Labs, database point in time restore, and others mentioned in Veeam
KB2660
      There is a requirement for multiple copies of backups going to long-term backup storage, tape or
cloud
      There is a requirement for fast restores from backup chains with more than 6 incremental
backups that depend on a full backup.
      There is a requirement for fast restores of large VM s that contain multiple virtual hard disks
equaling terabytes in size
With the demand placed on backup storage in these scenarios, it is important to consider the
hardware configuration as it pertains to where backups are stored.
Below are some hardware configuration options that can be used with the Dell EMC storage portfolio
to enable the desired performance across all scenarios. In some cases, there may be a need to
combine characteristics of more than one option, but in all cases, it is strongly encouraged that you
consult with Dell EMC and/or a value added reseller to discuss individual needs.
The industry 3-2-1 backup rule can be used as a guideline for the backup infrastructure planning:
3: Maintain at least three copies of your data and applications. That s the one copy you re using and
two backups. This way, if one of your backups is unavailable for any reason (such as the backup is
co- located with your primary copy and both go down), you can still recover what you need.
2: Store your backups on at least two different types of media or storage controller logics. One reason
for this is that each type of media has its own vulnerabilities, and you don t want both of your
backups susceptible to the same problem.
For example: run your business on a general-purpose fast storage system and store your backups on
a storage system that is specialized for this purpose, or a separate server with local disks.
1: Keep one of the backups in a different location. Consider a crisis in your primary data center, such
as a fire or power failure. If all copies are collocated, they can all be affected, resulting in unplanned
downtime for your organization.

A variant of this approach is to use a Dell EMC server with local disks to store the primary backup
chain (cache approach) and use Backup Copy to Dell EMC Data Domain for extended long-term
retention.

2. Add offsite target   in addition to the above scenarios, you can use the following options to
create an offsite copy of your data.

            a) Place Dell EMC Data Domain at the second site. Use Veeam Backup Copy Job to create the
secondary offsite backup chain from the primary backup chain.

b) Place a second Dell EMC Data Domain on primary site for long-term retention

c) Add a tape system at another site or the cloud   Use Veeam Backup to Tape Jobs using Dell EMC
PowerVault/ML3 or Veeam Cloud Tier with Dell EMC Elastic Cloud Storage (ECS) to store data offsite.

3. Restoring from Dell EMC   Veeam (Update 4 and upward) has been optimized with Dell EMC Data
Domain software (DDOS 6.x) for faster restores. These optimizations have been specifically targeted
for Veeam random IO workloads. Restores can be orchestrated directly from Dell EMC Data Domain
(local) or from long-term retention Dell EMC Data Domain systems (offsite, tape system or cloud).
