Veeam Backup and Replication v11: Architecture and Design

The two-day, Veeam® Backup & Replication™ v11: Architecture and Design training course, is focused on teaching IT professionals how to effectively architect a Veeam solution through attaining technical excellence following the Veeam Architecture Methodology used by Veeam’s own Solution Architects.

During the two days, attendees will explore the goals of requirement gathering and infrastructure assessment, and use that information to design Veeam solutions within team exercises. Attendees will analyze considerations when turning logical designs into physical designs and describe the obligations to the implementation team that will implement that design. Other topics covered will include security, governance and validation impacts when architecting a Veeam solution and how to build these into the overall design.

Attendees should expect to contribute to team exercises, present designs and defend decision making.

Audience

Senior Engineers and Architects responsible for creating architectures for Veeam environments.

Prerequisites

Attendees should:

ideally be VMCE certified

Course outline

Introduction

Review the architecture principlesEx
plore what a successful architecture looks like
Review Veeam’s architecture methodology

Discovery

Analyze the existing environment
Uncover relevant infrastructure metrics
Uncover assumptions and risks
Identify complexity in the environment

Conceptual design

Review scenario and data from discovery phase
Identify logical groups of objects that will share resources based on requirements
Create a set of detailed tables of business and technical requirements, constraints, assumptions and risks
Review infrastructure data with each product component in mind
Create high level design and data flow

Logical design

Match critical components and features of VBR with requirements
Create logical groupings
Determine location of components and relationship to logical grouping
Aggregate totals of component resources needed per logical grouping
Calculate component (storage, CPU, memory) quantity sizing

Physical/tangible design

Convert the logical design into a physical design
Physical hardware sizing
Create a list of physical Veeam backup components

Implementation and Governance

Review physical design and implantation plan
