With their combined expertise, Veeam Software and Microsoft have expanded their partnership to build AI solutions. This collaboration will enable customers to protect, recover, and unlock more value from their data.
“In a world where cyber threats and outages are constant, data resilience is no longer optional—it’s mission-critical,” said Anand Eswaran, CEO of Veeam. “By joining forces with Microsoft, we’re bringing AI-powered intelligence to 550,000 customers and most Fortune 500 and Global 2000 companies, enabling them to protect, detect, and recover faster than ever before.”
AI and data resilience
Microsoft will support Veeam in accelerating AI-powered innovations for customers. The data resilience company focuses on research and development investments, architectural expertise, and design collaboration.
Veeam will integrate Microsoft AI services, including machine learning (ML), to enhance Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365, Veeam Data Cloud Vault, and new Entra ID Solutions, which aims to strengthen identity security and resilience for cloud-first organisations.
AI-powered protection and recovery
Veeam’s integration with Microsoft AI is designed to help organisations detect suspicious activity before it escalates, identify backup vulnerabilities that need attention, automate compliance and recovery reporting, and accelerate data restores. This proactive approach ensures businesses are secure and can get back up and running faster.
“AI is transforming every aspect of business,” said Jason Graefe, corporate vice president, ISV’s & Digital Natives, Microsoft. “By integrating Microsoft AI with Veeam’s market-leading data resilience solutions, we’re helping customers not only protect their critical data but also unlock new insights and efficiencies across Microsoft 365 and Azure.”
Veeam Data Cloud
Built on Microsoft Azure, Veeam Data Cloud aims to provide backup-as-a-service (BaaS) for Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Azure. This all-in-one service includes infrastructure and storage, optimising costs and simplifying management.
