Enterprise customers can now replace their legacy backup solution with a single comprehensive data protection and Availability solution to protect mission-critical applications, systems and data that exist in enterprise environments. Veeam Software has extended its portfolio of Availability solutions to support for IBM AIX and Oracle Solaris, via a technology partnership with Cristie Software, enables enterprises to drive business transformation via a single comprehensive Availability platform for physical, virtual and cloud workloads. Cristie has proven technology with over 3,000 customers worldwide and more than 1,000 enterprises using its software specifically for AIX and Solaris systems.

“Enterprises need to enhance business efficiency and security, while embracing the cloud, but many mission-critical databases and applications are still running, and will continue to run, on AIX and Solaris. As we expand the Veeam Availability Platform to meet the needs of our growing enterprise customer base, we are pleased to extend support for physical workloads in these environments, in addition to Windows and Linux. Enterprise customers can now replace legacy backup solutions with a single comprehensive data protection and Availability solution from Veeam” stated Peter McKay, Co-CEO and President at Veeam. With the Veeam Availability Platform, Veeam enables any business to deliver the Digital Lifeexperience users expect, delivering the next generation of Availability for the Always-On Enterprise.  It provides businesses and enterprises of all sizes with the means to ensure Availability for any application and any data, across any cloud infrastructure.

“While the share of UNIX-based systems in the enterprise has continued to decline in recent years, there is still a significant number of Fortune 500 and Global 2000 companies that continue to use UNIX-based systems in their data centers,” commented Catia Brunetto, Director BU Infrastructure IT at Veeam partner, Econocom Products & Solutions, a European services company specializing in the management of IT and telecom resources across 19 countries.

“These enterprise organizations can be found in any industry and vertical, including banking, retail, public sector and government, telecom, insurance, manufacturing, automotive and other, and choose AIX and Solaris based on application performance, reliability and security.”
