Reseña del libro "Veeam Backup and Replication v13.1: The Core Platform"
Previously published as Veeam Backup and Replication v13: The Core Platform by Eric Black. Backup is easy to call successful until you have to recover under pressure. Veeam Backup and Replication v13.1: The Core Platform is a practical field guide for the administrators, consultants, and architects responsible for building, hardening, operating, and recovering Veeam environments. This edition has been revised throughout for Veeam Backup & Replication 13.1, with the technical baseline revalidated against the 13.1.1.18 documentation set. The focus is the core platform and the decisions that affect real recovery: the Veeam Software Appliance and Infrastructure Appliance, Windows upgrades and VSA migration, high availability, proxy and repository architecture, Scale-Out Backup Repositories, object storage, immutability, security controls, ransomware response, malware detection, identity recovery, recovery validation, disaster recovery runbooks, Veeam ONE, Enterprise Manager, and operational monitoring. Inside the book: • Apply 3-2-1-1-0 as an architecture and recovery discipline • Deploy and operate the Software Appliance and Infrastructure Appliance with current 13.1 boundaries • Plan Windows upgrades, VSA migration, and standard or cross-subnet HA • Design proxies, repositories, SOBR, capacity tier, backup copy, tape, and offline recovery paths • Harden backup infrastructure with immutable storage, MFA, four-eyes authorization, RBAC, encryption, and Zero Trust principles • Work through ransomware recovery, clean restore-point selection, identity recovery, and measured RTO testing • Build operational runbooks and prove recovery with practical validation checklists • Operate and monitor the platform with Veeam ONE, Enterprise Manager, external monitoring, REST, and PowerShell This is not a feature tour or a button-by-button manual. It is written for experienced infrastructure professionals who need to understand why a design works, where it can fail, and what must be proven before recovery depends on it. Every chapter closes with validation guidance. The appendices provide a Veeam v13.1 feature map, design defaults, consolidated field checklists, a glossary, and an index for day-to-day reference. This is an independent technical guide. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Veeam Software or any other vendor mentioned.
