AWS Storage Gateway support for Veeam and Microsoft backup applications

Posted on: Nov 3, 2014

AWS Storage Gateway now supports backup applications from Veeam and Microsoft, in addition to updated versions from Symantec. You can use these to backup and archive with a Storage Gateway Virtual Tape Library (VTL) to the scalable, cost-effective, and secure Amazon S3 and Glacier storage.

For the full list of supported backup applications, and to get started, visit the AWS Storage Gateway-VTL user guide. An updated virtual machine (VM) image is available for download on November 3, 2014 from the AWS Management Console. For existing gateways a software update will be available on November 17, 2014, and can be applied through the Console or during the gateway’s next scheduled weekly maintenance time.
