\"veeam95whatsnew01\"<\/p>\n

Veeam released the version 9.5 of its Backup and Replication solution introducing some new features and full support to\u00a0Microsoft 2016 Data Center Technologies.<\/p>\n

Despite release 9.5 doesn't support vSphere 6.5<\/strong> yet, the new functions are extremely interesting and\u00a0improve the overall performance of the product.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What's new<\/h2>\n

In version 9.5 plenty of new features have been introduced.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

VMware vSphere infrastructure cache<\/h4>\n

The interaction between Veeam and vCenter has been dramatically improved with the new Veeam Broker Service<\/strong> that collects and caches vSphere infrastructure hierarchy in RAM<\/strong>\u00a0for access at memory speed.<\/p>\n

Jobs will fetch the vSphere topology directly from RAM<\/strong> cache instead of querying the vCenter accelerating job startup.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Advanced data fetcher<\/h4>\n

This feature reduces the\u00a0load on primary storage due to the reduced number of I\/O operations<\/strong> required to\u00a0complete a backup, improving its availability to production workloads.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Advanced ReFS integration for Windows 2016<\/h4>\n

ReFS is the Microsoft file system introduced with Windows 2012 as next generation of file system after NTFS. Maybe the most interesting feature introduced, it brings as main benefits faster synthetic full backups creation<\/strong> and transformation performance<\/strong>, as well as reduced storage requirements<\/strong> and improved reliability<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Advanced ReFS integration requires a Windows Server 2016-based backup repository<\/strong> backed by a local volume or shared folder.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Direct restore from tape<\/h4>\n

Previously restores from tape required to stage\u00a0VM backup files in a repository first before restoring the VM in the final datastore.<\/p>\n

Now administrators can perform a full VM restore directly from tape to final datastore<\/strong> improving the RTO and eliminating the need of locating a repository with sufficient, free disk space to accommodate all of the backup files required to perform the restore.<\/p>\n
