Okay. Well, let's get started. Good afternoon, everyone. Thank you for for joining. My name is Chris Scully. I am, an account executive and a client relationship manager, with InterWorks. We are very proud to be bringing you, this technical session, this overview today with one of our best partners, Veeam. And, this is a series of, webinars we've been have been, pulling out there this year, with some of our, favorite and best partners, and, certainly, Veeam is at the top of that list. So we're really glad, to have them today. So thank you again for joining. I'm gonna do a quick introduction, and then I'm gonna hand it off to our to our partners from Beam today to to lead us through. But be putting questions and answers, in the chat or in the q and a section of your Zoom, We'll actually circle back to them at the very end, and I will ask those, as they've come in, back to our presenters. So, until then, everybody will be on mute, but please feel free to chime in that way. We're glad to have you guys again today. So I'm gonna go through just a couple of quick, slides of introduction to, InterWorks if if we wanna slip to the next slide here. So just a very quick thing about InterWorks. If you're not familiar with us, we are, and I won't read all this to you, but I'm we're a people focused, technology consultant organization. We're we're, based out of Stillwater, Oklahoma, but we cover, nationally as well as global. And so, we're really an end to end solution provider on the IT side of things, and, we work with the the right people. We're heavy on services. And, yeah, you can see a list here of the different things that we do, everything from IT to solutions, data, analytics, experience, platforms, and enablement. So, again, anything that you've got, a need for from an IT standpoint, feel free to reach out. You'll see my email at the end of this, presentation that you can reach out to us, and I can get in contact with you with with whether that is with Beam or with anything else that you may need. So, again, thank you guys for joining today. So with that, let me, do a quick introduction and, turn it over to our presenter today. So, we're really lucky to have John Nash here. John is a solution engineer at Veeam. He specializes in Veeam data cloud for Microsoft three sixty five, and intra ID with a strong background of technical support and a focus on m three sixty five and public cloud backups. John's been with Veeam since twenty seventeen, stepped into his current role a year ago. He's passionate about helping organizations protect their Microsoft three sixty five environments with modern SaaS solutions. When he's not diving into the cloud architecture or backup strategy, you'll likely find him on the disc golf course. So, sounds good. But, again, we're really fortunate to have John here. Innerworks, we are certainly longtime partners with Veeam and have a great deal of expertise, in house as well. So we look forward to this and look forward to hearing from you if you need help going forward. So with that, John, I'm gonna turn it over to you and, take it away. We'll circle back, towards the end. Awesome. Yeah. Thanks for that introduction, Chris. It's, definitely been a wild ride with Beam back cloud and kind of Beam's launch into the SaaS space. So always happy to talk product, always have to get really technical and answer questions, and kind of talk about how Veeam fits into a lot of the pictures for a lot of our customers kind of jointly together today. So we're here today to kind of talk about, specifically Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft three sixty five and kind of our backup capabilities around that. And before we kind of jump into three sixty five, specifically, I wanna talk more about kind of Veeam's vision for Veeam Data Cloud and where we're at today and kind of where we're headed. So, initially, in this space, we were just, focused on Microsoft three sixty five in Microsoft Azure, so, like, your virtual machines up there. So that's where we started out with Veeam Data Cloud as a platform. Today, we also offer Veeam Vault as a storage solution for your Veeam backup and replication. We also offer intra ID and Salesforce backups. Soon, we're gonna launch, Kasten Kubernetes backups as well as a lot of ambitious things like trying to put all of our workloads up into the space, something like Veeam backup and replication so you're able to back up your virtual machines, your endpoints. So, a lot of innovation is gonna happen here. A huge investment on Veeam's part into this space to be able to make this happen. But as we kind of talk about this, you know, we're here to kinda talk and focus on the three sixty five side of things. And why should you protect Microsoft three sixty five data at all? Right? You you have recycle bins. You have native technology, purview, and retention, and all of these different things going on. But the reality is is that Microsoft has published this shared responsibility model. Right? And this model tells you that Microsoft is responsible for the service, and you're responsible for your data. So it's a very, very important thing to understand that having that backup of your data is just an additional source of truth for you, that insurance policy against accidental deletions or external threats coming in, anything malicious or even non malicious. Right? Anybody could come in. Maybe they are trying to reduce storage space. Maybe they are trying to clean things up, and they clean up too much. They clean up something that was part of your compliance. And now you need that. Now you're kind of exposed because you no longer have that. They've cleared the recycle bins, and it's just gone. So there's also a lot of other things around this, making sure that you've got your cybersecurity insurance checkboxes, which are very stringent these days to make sure that you have all of these in place in order to be able to take advantage of that kind of insurance policy. So when we talk about Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft three sixty five, what we've built is something that is very modern. It's secure, intuitive, so we build it with security front of mind. And we don't just kind of claim that. We're actually out there. We've achieved SOC two type two certification. We've got a whole slew of ISO certificates, and we're working towards FedRAMP certification. If you guys know government, it is very hard to kind of penetrate that market and get those audits done to get that FedRAMP kind of compliance. So that's something that Veeam is working towards. That's all available to kind of download and see at our Veeam trust center. So definitely would recommend taking a look if you wanted to see kind of and download our our certifications and get a deeper look at kind of some of those categories that were reviewed. Outside of that, Veeam protects over twenty three and a half million customers in the Microsoft three sixty five space today. But that's a combination of both Veeam data cloud platform as well as our on soft our on premise kind of software offering that we've had traditionally for the last eight years. And then everything about this product in Veeam Data Cloud, it's all included. So you're you're not having to worry about deploying servers. You're not having to worry about deploying proxies in the setup, providing a storage space for this. You're not having to worry about network bandwidth, updates, patching, operating systems, security licenses, all of that. So we're handling all of that infrastructure for you so that the only thing that you're worried about is making sure your backup policies are configured, which will help you with doing any sort of restores if those are necessary, using our basic and advanced search capabilities on this platform, being able to kind of go out, find exactly what you need based on a set of metadata, maybe just doing some keyword searches to find that email for Cindy in accounting, so and kind of anywhere in between. As part of this, you do have some optional configurations here for customizing the backup policies, role based access controls, different types of reporting, restricting access based on IP addresses. So these are things that we can kind of go over more specifically in the demo to give you an idea of what additional capabilities are there on top of just having the capability to do the backup or stores and searches. So when we talk about our offerings here in Veeam Data Cloud Platform for Microsoft three sixty five, We're talking about really three things. And, really, it's kind of two things when you get down to it from a technical standpoint. So at the very top, you've got our premium license. This premium license includes one license of Express and one license of Flex. And so why would you need both? Express is gonna be our disaster recovery solution. So Express is built on top of the Microsoft backup storage API. Microsoft released this late last summer, and we are one of the first launch partners here with this API built into the product. And the idea here is that this is gonna protect your Outlook. This is gonna protect your OneDrive and your SharePoint sites. Doesn't protect Teams yet, but that's on the road map to solve. Right? So there's no granularity to the solution yet. You would recover the entire site, the entire mailbox, the entire OneDrive. That's great. That's awesome. But why would I need Express? And the idea is that this is the Microsoft superhighway when it comes to both backups and restores. So this is gonna restore at a speed of one to three terabytes per hour. And that's lightning fast. If you've ever dealt with the Microsoft Graph with anything else going on, maybe you're doing a a ton of uploads or scripting your things, throttling is a huge concern, and it is impactful to the performance of those recoveries. So it's purpose built to be that bulk or stub bulk recovery tool in that disaster event. And so you'll see kind of what we built into the product kind of utilize that express API for those bulk recoveries. In the event that of that disaster, you can know that you'll get your data back up as quickly as possible. On the other side of this, you've got Flex. So Flex is Veeam's traditional backup product that we've had in the market now for eight or nine years. So that's what underpins this whole solution. And the idea here with Flex is that it gives you flexibility in your backups, whether that's flexible retention. Maybe you need, thirty days of retention. Maybe you need three hundred years of retention and anywhere in between. So we can kind of help you address the length of retention. We could help you get down to the object level. Maybe you just need to recover a single email. Maybe it's a single object out of OneDrive or SharePoint. They just need that list restored. They just need that PDF file, that ISO. So those recovery options are available. You also have the capability to do searches with your flex backups, and you also get to choose your storage region of choice. So Veeam is backed by Microsoft Azure. It It is our subscription, so you're able to kind of choose your storage region of choice when it comes to Azure's offerings there. And then last up, what I really like to talk about is Veeam's exit strategy. So in the market, as you're kind of looking at your competition, what it looks like to exit the platform. So let's say that someone else has a better feature that more, comprehensively fits your solution, where you need a a particular feature that covers Microsoft Purview or Planner or something that maybe Veeam doesn't offer today. So you leave Veeam, but when you do leave Veeam at that point, Veeam would help you, essentially acquire your backup data, And then you would be able to use Veeam's kind of free community edition explorers to attach to that backup data and use any sort of recovery against that backup data for the lifetime that you've been backing up on the Veeam platform with your retention. So you're essentially assuming the storage account from Veeam on a sort of a a paid exit there. And that's not really offered today by a lot of the competition. There's no real tools to kind of go into your backup data outside of the fact after you're done paying them after the contract is terminated and utilize that sort of backup data. So definitely something to consider when you're approaching your solutions is to make sure that three, five, ten years down the line that there is an exit available to you so that you're not locked into a vendor, permanently. So what we'll do now is let's go ahead and let's take a look at what the actual platform might look like for you. We'll go through kind of a demo here to give you an idea of the solution itself and where it's at today, and we can kind of talk about where the solution is going. So today, we have the, main dashboard here. The only way into this solution is gonna be multifactor authentication. So something that you already enforce today in your Microsoft tenant, whether that's using an IDP like Okta, maybe it's you're using Duo, or you're just using something like Azure authentication or Entra authentication through the app, giving you a phone call, a text message so that you input that. So Veeam is utilizing a login with Microsoft Handshake to get you into this solution. But not only you as customers, but here at Veeam, this this is the only way into the solution for us as well. Everything has to be done through the secure handshake to get that token to jump right into this UI. So once you're in here as an administrator, you obviously get access to everything that administrator should. And the widgets are meant to give you quick, easy statistics about everything going on in your backup environment. So up here in the top left corner, we're getting your latest backup states. So when did my last backup run? Was it successful? Did it fail? Was it a warning? How How many restore points do I have? Now as an administrator, maybe the number of restore points doesn't matter too much. But when you consider if you're talking to your executives and you're telling them that, hey. I've got ten thousand restore points on disk for my backups. That's a pretty impactful number. So it's kinda cool to deliver that kind of telemetry and metrics. Not as important as administrator, but being able to speak to the solution when you're discussing it internally definitely could find some value there. Then you kinda get this storage utilization on both this top left corner and the bottom right hand corner. The storage itself is an unlimited storage, unlimited retention solution. So these metrics are just here to kind of help supplement maybe your vision into your projects. Maybe you're moving data from on premise file shares. And from those on premise file shares, you're putting it in SharePoint and OneDrive. So now you can kind of see your backups grow with you over time and maybe look for any sort of spikes in data that kind of look fishy. So it might give you a reason to go track some information down to see, you know, is there something new happening with your consumption? Is there a new user that has now overtaken the top five storage users from down here in the bottom right hand corner? Are they supposed to be there? Is it an automation? Is it a process? So meant to give you good telemetry on your backup data, but also your live storage data as well. Also get information on your protected accounts versus your unprotected accounts, your backup retention goals. So I've been backing up for seven months in this environment, but my goal is seven years. So this kinda helps you visualize that goal of retention and where you wanna be. But you also get your Microsoft three sixty five license activity side by side with your Veeam data cloud consumption. So the idea here is that in my environment, I've got twenty five e five users. Maybe you have e one, e three, e five. Maybe it's faculty or students or business premium select licensing. This is gonna help you see your license consumption in Microsoft side by side with that Beam consumption. You'll also notice that we input this kind of inactive number here for you. So inactive from Microsoft means that these set of users have not logged into the platform within the last thirty to ninety days. Maybe this is expected. Maybe it's short term disability. Maybe they're taking a leave of absence, but maybe it's somebody that's just not utilizing the license features that you've assigned to them. So you can actually view these inactive accounts, take these out, and, you know, hand these over to the procurement team. Say that maybe we don't need all of these license. You could renegotiate, find some savings there, but, just making sure that all of that happens. And this isn't unique to Veeam. This widget and the storage usage widget there, those come directly from the Microsoft reporting APIs. We're not doing anything special there. We're just kind of inputting it next to your backup data to give you that side by side comparison. So here in the middle, you've got your Veeam Data Cloud license consumption, though. So the way that Veeam is gonna license you is it's gonna be a per user basis, and that user needs to have a successful backup of their Exchange, Exchange archive, their OneDrive, or a personal SharePoint site. So as long as they have that successful backup, that license is gonna be consumed for a thirty one day period after that first backup job runs as long as they're backed up for the rest of the future in their license in Microsoft. Right? So after the thirty one day period, maybe they're terminated, maybe they retire, they're no longer being backed up. After they're no longer being backed up by Veeam, thirty one days later, that license goes back into your pool to be used by somebody else. And so there's variability built in the platform to kind of match your onboarding and offboarding experience. Even after that person has been off boarded and the license becomes available, we're keeping the data the entire retention term. So whether you've got seven years, seven hundred years, seven days, when that user leaves, that data is always gonna be there for that entire retention period so that you can be sure that, you know, maybe you need to restore their data into their replacement. You could do that. And we'll talk more about restores here in a little bit. But you'll also notice as part of the platform, there's a hundred and three objects in my environment that don't require a license. These are gonna be your shared, your room, resource, equipment mailboxes. So these are production objects that don't require a license in Microsoft. So we don't require a license in Veeam. We back these up as part of the service. You're just paying for your licensed users in Veeam. And then last up, you've got your kind of raw storage usage. So in my environment, it's only a hundred and fifty gigs, but in your environment, it could be terabytes. It could be a hundred terabytes, maybe a petabyte of data. So all of this information is kinda given to you so that you can kind of monitor it and watch it together side by side if you wanted a that additional information inside kind of your backup product, which is really nice. So as you scroll down through the dashboard, you're gonna have quick easy access to your restore explorers. So these also correlate here to the ones on the left hand side. At the very bottom of the dashboard, though, you've got user auditing. So anybody coming into your platform is going to create a trackable event if they're doing any sort of restore activities, even just browsing the restore data or even previewing an email. So as part of the platform, you're able to go all the way down to the object level. So in this case, an email. Right? And open that up, and you're able to read that email. So it's meant to be a comparison tool. You're able to grab that data out of it and then deliver that data, that information, you know, in Slack, Teams, Discord, maybe even sending that information in another email if you wanted or just making sure it's the right email for recovery. But by nature, being able to read emails could be malicious in nature. So someone could come in as part of their Monday morning newspaper, read and read the executive's email if they have too much access. So you can control this with role based access controls. But the idea here is that no matter what, it's gonna create the trackable event so that you're always confident in your auditing capabilities to go back and see who's been in my platform, who's been doing all the things so that you can track down that person if it's, you know, suspected that they're doing something they're not supposed to be. And you can get this sent out as an email notification. You could subscribe to a daily, weekly, monthly report here, or even just generate this here in browser as well as kind of filtering out the events to make sure that you're seeing exactly what you wanna see from this section when it comes to auditing. Next up, let's talk about the backup policies. So as part of the platform, we've got really extensive information on how to set things up best practice, Siles. So you can take advantage of our kind of white glove onboarding service where you we help you set this up from the very beginning. You can also keep it simple. You can do like what I've done here, and I've created a couple policies that are maybe just by application and license type. So I can set up my express policies for those applications. I can set up my flex policies for those applications to dynamically pick up every object in my organization so I don't have to fiddle with the static object assignments here. You're able to do that. You're able to kind of create group based policies. So at the very top, I've created an executive group policy. Maybe I create a sales group, a legal group, and I'm backing up their OneDrives, their, Outlook. They're maybe I'm backing up specific SharePoint sites that are associated. So you're able to go through these and kind of create these on your own. If you want, you'll have that kind of control, that flexibility, if you will. I know that's a little bit corny, but, bear with me there. And so you're able to kinda go through these wizards, set up the static objects, the groups, the dynamic objects if you'd like, but but you're also able to do by exclusion. So maybe you're there are things that you don't want discoverable, you don't want a backup, you don't need a backup. From a Veeam standpoint, it is unlimited storage so that you could back up everything if you wanted. You're not hurting us there. So that way you're fully covered for any kind of dynamic objects that come in, but maybe there are things that you don't wanna back up. So we do offer the exclusions as part of that. So able to be as fine tuning of these policies as you can be. And, again, we'll help you set these up so that you're not having to write, like, a college thesis to put all of these objects together to make sure that you're fully protected in that kind of scenario. Outside of this, you also have five built in reports. So today, we've got a mailbox and user protection report. We've got backup summary and policy details. So these are gonna give you more information about who's being backed up, are they consuming a license, and how are my policies set up, are they running okay. But, also, you've got that restore activity report where it's gonna tell you the auditing information so that you know anybody coming on to your platform is so that you know anybody coming on to your platform is they're doing the right thing here. They're not doing anything malicious, so you can kind of check up on this kind of weekly, monthly if you'd like, maybe quarterly. So these are all available to kinda schedule out or just generate actively here in browser. Next up, we've got a basic search and an advanced search. So what's nice about the basic search is it's meant to be a quick live search of your backup data. And this can go over your Outlook backups, your OneDrive, your SharePoint files, your team files. So you could search any one of these applications for a keyword. Maybe you're looking for a specific object to search down into. So for me, I've searched money inside of Adam Smith's mailbox. So this will live populate the search results as it goes. And then within these search results, I can filter down even farther. So maybe I'm looking for something called deep money or something about deep money. This will help me filter down those results even further so that it can come in here and pull these out. And I can send it back to the original location. I could send it to a a new location, a new folder if I wanted, or I can just download it here in browser and ship it off much faster using email or Teams or Slack or whatever your kind of platform is there. So meant to be very quick, and get you what you need, with as basic as possible. So the other side of the coin is a more comprehensive, more metadata based search so that, you can go in and maybe it's a third party request, a legal request coming in. They have very specific criteria that they want you to run against your backups to see what's discoverable there. So as part of this, again, all four services are included here. You can go into the primary and secondary fields of each service where, essentially, these are all metadata driven by the, data on the Microsoft side. Fill these out exactly as you're getting that kind of criteria so that, whatever you can grab from the criteria that you're being handed, we're gonna put it right into the tool. We're gonna build out our search, you know, maybe ten, fifteen, twenty different criteria and put all of that together, hit start search, which starts a search in the background. And earlier, I mentioned comprehensive. Comprehensive also means from a technical standpoint, very slow. Right? So this is a very light version of ediscovery and really goes into that nitty gritty metadata, that binary bit of data to grab all of this and present it to you once it's finished. So once that search job has completed, you're able to pull this up, know that everything in your search matches exactly what we put in there, and then you'll have the recovery options to pull these out and send these back to the original location, send it to a new location, or download these here in browser. You have all of those options here. So So let's talk about the actual recovery themselves. So each of these explorers is purpose built to look and feel exactly like each other. It is meant to be that kind of simple, intuitive, that point and click kind of functionality that Veeam is really striving to produce for you. So at the very top level of this, we've got a bulk recovery. This bulk recovery can utilize both express or flex, and we can send it back to the original location. If you're using flex only here, as part of that recovery, that bulk recovery, we also have a feature that's gonna help you recover quicker. Because flex is a little bit slower going through that Microsoft Graph, we're offering this feature that allows you to recover the last couple days first of email. So getting everybody back up as quickly as possible, you know, maybe with last week's email, and then it will recover the rest of the email after it does the first seven days first, the first three or four days first. So whatever is kind of most comfortable for you. You could also add different exclusions here. Maybe you just wanna recover changed and missing items or kind of leave everything marked as unread. I think that would drive me nuts personally, seeing all it's kind of like our big red blinking light. When everything is unread, you've got all those notifications. So, me personally, please don't restore those as unread. That'll drive me crazy. But this might help show somebody that, hey. There's fifteen thousand unread emails. This is what we recovered for you. So that's available there for that bulk recovery. But most of your day to day is gonna be at the object level or maybe at the folder item level. So at the object level, the mailbox, we could come in here and I can recover using express or flex still. That express is gonna take advantage of that performance that we talked about, the Microsoft Superhighway, but we also have the flex recovery. So back to the original location, we've got those advanced options that we talked about, exclusions, inclusions, things like that. But maybe we wanna recover this mailbox to a different person. Maybe we wanna recover a old employee's email box to their their manager, their new manager. Maybe we wanna recover it to their replacement, or send this wherever we need to for whatever reason that we need to. We can go in here and select that mailbox for the target, and then we can call this folder whatever we want. We can call it the old clerk's folder. And so this will recover the entire structure into that folder for you, and you can call it whatever you want. You could even recover this back to the original mailbox and just restore it to a different folder so that they have that data from that time period. What's really nice is that you still do have those advanced options here as well, but you also have the ability to pull this down as a PST file. So maybe you still have some processes in place to download this object as a PST file, and use it on prem, use it as part of, submission for discovery, you know, in your legal process. But you also have the ability to download this object and background, which is also a PST download. But the idea here is that we don't wanna watch the wheel spin. Alright? We want to get back to our day, and this will notify you when that recovery is ready so that you can go into the notifications, hit that blue hyperlink for this restore, and it will download this PST file to your browser kind of at your leisure. It's like the the four thirty PM on a Friday where you don't wanna sit around and wait for it. You'll just get it on Monday. So you start the restore, come back in on Monday, grab that, and then do whatever you need to with that. So, again, same exact recovery options at the folder level. So back to the original location, new location, download here in browser, or at the object level. So I can come all the way down. I can recover a bunch of objects if I want. I can recover a single object, or I could actually read these emails as well. So, again, as part of that platform, I can open this up. I can see that this has an attachment to it. If it had a message body, which this one doesn't because it's scripted, it would go in and it would tell me the message body. It would say, hey, John. This is the message body blah blah blah blah blah. See you next week on Tuesday. So that's all available here. That creates that trackable event so that we'll see that in the report or however we get those kind of notifications. Next up, we've got OneDrive. So OneDrive has the same exact options here. So very top level, bulk recovery back to the original location using Express or Flex here. So if you've protecting all of these objects with both Express and Flex, it will tell you that you can use Express or Flex here. So my Flex recovery back to the original location like we talked about. No additional options here. But, again, most of our day to day is probably gonna be within a single object. So we can drop down here into the single object level. I I can recover this whole one drive with Express or Flex at this object level back to the original location. Maybe I wanna recover it to a new location. Maybe I do want some advanced options capable of that. Maybe I wanna restore the, the sharing involved when you kind of share odd items to make sure that all of the links come back in for the right levels of access. Maybe you're looking for specific versions or how you want to handle version history. So maybe you just wanna merge everything together or overwrite what's already there because there's corrupted versions of the item still left over. And you also still have the ability to restore it into a specific folder. So cover this in the replacement, maybe a central OneDrive that you're using for shared access. You could do that. On top of that, again, local computer download, so you can bring this right here in browser or that four thirty PM on a Friday, download in background, have that ready for you when it's ready. It'll notify you that, hey. That link is good to go. So you can come in and kinda get that at your leisure. Same recovery options at the folder level here. So I can drop down into my notebooks. I can drop down here into my restore data folder, and I can grab these files. And I can go all the way down to the folder or object level, recover these the same way. So original location, new location, new folder, all of that's gonna be available there for you. Now SharePoint is a little bit different, only in the sense that, you can't download the entire SharePoint site to your browser. Not sure how that would work out or what you would do with it at that point. But, what you can do with SharePoint is you can still do the bulk recovery at the very top, you know, express or flex with all those sites that you're protecting. Most of your day to day is probably gonna be in the actual site itself. You could do a site level recovery. Maybe you wanna send this site back to the original location. Maybe you wanna recover this site to a new alternate URL. You know, maybe you wanna provide this for your development team so you can come in here, recover this whole site as a development site so that they're not making changes in production, because, of course, that probably never happens. But you also have advanced options. So this the advanced options, they cover your permissions, any subsites, any list views that you've created, but it also has your versioning settings here as well. So, versioning will take up a ton of storage. And maybe as part of the platform, you want to reduce those versions. So we'll have that version history for for you as part of this platform that you could go within the actual site contents itself, find that item that you're looking for. Maybe it's a specific version of that item. You could select that. That version of the item will exist for OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams. So could be multiple versions that you're looking for, and maybe you're just looking for the one that's not corrupted, or maybe somehow it's just missing. So within the actual site contents itself, you'll have a ton of different libraries, a different, set of lists and assets. So So you can recover the entire library or the list back to the original location. Maybe you wanna recover the library to a new location, a new list, new alias. So these are all available. You still have the advanced options here that we talked about earlier. But at this level, you can actually download the entire library to your desktop if you needed to. You can also go down into the structure and grab maybe that file that you're looking for. So same exact recovery options here at the file level back to the original new location, download here in browser. But because I don't really have any version to show off, you'll have to use your imagination a little bit and see that. Imagine that there's a ton of different versions, and all you would have to do is just select the right version that you want here. Click okay, and then hit your recovery, and that's gonna recover that specific version there for you of that object that you're looking for. And then rounding out kind of the platform here, you've got Microsoft Teams backup. So Teams is that complex subject of the SharePoint back end, mailbox front end, all of the layers of complexity in between here. So you've got the Teams protection at the very top. You've got your membership, your GIPHY settings, your permissions, your tags, and things like that. So we'll we'll cover that for you. But you've also got all of your channel settings. So whether your channel is a public channel, is a private or shared channel, we'll protect all of those for you. And within those, you can obviously add, files. You can upload files to all of these because they're SharePoint back end. So we'll cover the files for you. We'll cover all of the tabs that you've added. As long as the tab data is within the SharePoint site itself for that team, it will get recovered back and attached. No problem. But if it's something like, you know, Power Platform or Planner where the data is kept outside of the platform in their own respective spaces, we'll put the tab back, but we can't connect the two. So you would kinda have to do a little bit of manual work after the fact until we can kinda protect and recover those with you. Then last up to talk about really is these posts. The channel posts themselves, they come at a premium API cost, through Microsoft that would get billed directly to your Azure subscription. There isn't really anything Veeam can do to kind of, subvert that cost for you. It's just something that, has to happen to get to these posts. And this is an opt in service. So if you need additional information, we've got a ton of different knowledge based articles and calculations that you could use to try to estimate the type of costs. It is a fraction of a penny per post that would get backed up, that you could select, and most people opt not to do it, but it is a part of the platform if you wanted that kind of service, you know, for compliance reasons or whatever have you, to be able to back these up. So we do offer that as part of that. Alright. And then there's this purpose built bulk recovery tool. So in kind of the slides that we talked about earlier, we talked about express and having that ability to help you out in that disaster situation to help that business continuity disaster recovery, plan that you've kind of built for your company. So this is where that express offering fits in for you. So purpose built bulk restore tool built on Microsoft backup storage to take advantage of that Microsoft superhighway, that one to three terabytes per hour recovery, and that's a per service number. So if you're doing a recovery against all three of those protected services with Express, you're potentially looking at somewhere between three and nine terabytes per hour recovery across all of those platforms because those are independent of each other, and they're not going through the same Microsoft Graph throttling that every other solution on the market has to go through today. So fill this tool with all of your express protected objects, including those SharePoint sites. Choose your restore point in time. On the next screen, it's just gonna verify all of the restore points that match your selection for those selected objects. And Then you hit go, and then it does that recovery at that speed. So, meant to get you there as quickly as possible. I mean, in that kind of situation, you're probably on the phone with both Microsoft and Veeam. And we're gonna help you go through this because we have a per we have a severity one team that is built to handle these situations so that you're not having to worry about doing this all alone. We're gonna help you walk through the process, make sure that your backup and running is complete as possible as we can get you there. So definitely something to think about. And then let's drop into the kind of the the settings portion here. So as part of the platform, we offer these role based access controls. And the idea is that on the platform, you're just gonna start with administrator. This role is gonna be in charge of, obviously, everything as the administrator, and you can kind of turn down, turn off the settings if you want depending on your level of permissions as administrator. Maybe that's kind of moot. But the idea is that you would carve out the different roles. Maybe you wanna do self-service capabilities. Maybe you want to give different groups of access within your team. Maybe you want to carve out a tier one, tier two help desk so that the tier one group has access to all of these groups of data except the executives. So you could build it out that way. You could also give them access to specific SharePoint sites so that they can kind of scope into that SharePoint site selection and get that information for you. Maybe you don't want them to be able to manage users or create reports or any of that. So all of that is kind of capable here for you. Once you build these roles out, super easy to assign. So you could do static assignments. I can come in here, and I could layer on the different roles that I've created. Once I hit save here, these are in place immediately. So as soon as you see that user has been updated, even if they're logged into the platform, they try to go somewhere else, and maybe they don't have enough permissions, they won't be able to get there. Or maybe you've given them expanded access, so they just need to refresh the page and, boom, they'll see those expanded permissions. So it allows you to kinda quickly and easily play with permissions to make sure that they have the right levels of access on the fly. Now static assignments seem kind of like a chore, so we're gonna recommend that you do it by groups so that you can come in here, add your groups from Antra, and then layer on those same permissions if you want, take those permissions away. Again, making those permission changes on the fly as you go so that anybody logging in from that group to this platform will have them applied immediately or in flight if you're making those changes. Next up, you get kind of this, simple billing screen that gives you information about your subscription, your licensing, and then kind of your consumption over time. But the meat and potatoes here is gonna be this license user section, so it's gonna go over who's consuming a license and why they're consuming a license. So what was their last backed update? Is it within that thirty one day period that we talked about? What applications are we protecting? So you can export all of this information out here in browser, but this is the user protection report from the reporting section earlier. So you could schedule it out again or do it as an export from that section too. And then you've got the system setting side of things. So, you know, as we get towards the end of the platform here, you've got the ability to do some different support items. So maybe you want to enable the Teams API that we talked about to get to those channel posts. Maybe you wanna go in and have your express activation. So secondary app registration, refreshing or renewing the Entre ID application here or even that certificate that's attached. So this is typically a support driven section after onboarding. Otherwise, during onboarding, we're probably going over all of this information with you as well, but all of these are available. You've also got information and access to set up this, self-service functionality. When this feature is on, it is on. When it is off, it is off. So that when it is on, anybody from your tenant would be able to sign in to Veeam Data Cloud. It'd be able to access just specifically their own Outlook and own OneDrive. These are the only two buttons they would be able to see. They would be able they wouldn't be able to, like, see the search functionality, the reports, the policies, the dashboard. So just Outlook and OneDrive and recover single objects back to the original location, whether that's an email or that ISO or ZIP file from their OneDrive. Just kind of limiting the amount of destruction that those users can kinda cause for you. So outside of that, you've also got some networking restrictions that you can impose. So you would essentially add in your subnets here of where you would be accessing the Veeam Data Cloud from. So this prevents users from getting on at Starbucks, at McDonald's, the airport Wi Fi. So allows you to really restrict access and lock it down so that you know exactly who can access it from where. But, also, this logging feature helps here as well. So if you have an existing SIEM server or a Syslog server in your solution, you could forward over all of those activity events to kinda live in that ecosystem with the rest of your notifications. Speaking of notifications and last up kind of on the platform here is just email notifications. So setting it up for when your backup's complete, when they just when they fail, maybe any changes to your licenses or restore activity. So restore activity also encompasses the ability to prevent that email from being read. So this will also show you who's doing all the restore, but also who's reading those emails. And that's it. That's the whole platform today. The rest is kinda self driven. You know, you've got a couple of settings around, you know, regional time zones and how I get support, you know, beating up your account manager or different knowledge base articles that we've written. Well, outstanding, John. Thank you so much for that. Very much appreciate your time. Let me let me, just kinda end this with a a couple of questions I wanna pass along to you. So maybe give us give us, can you walk us through a real world scenario where not having a backup, impact to the customer in in your experiences? Absolutely. And this is a great question. So, I'm lucky enough or unlucky enough to to be involved with a lot of different customer engagements. And the most recent story I have about this is they are now looking at backup. They didn't have a backup in place before, you know, couple weeks ago. They had a user that was looking to create a SharePoint site. They needed to do something for their role as a SharePoint administrator to create a site for as part of their tasks, but they were out of storage in SharePoint. They had no storage to create a new site, no quota. It was full. So they went out. They found the oldest SharePoint site that was there. They assumed that nothing there was deleted or whatever their process was. They deleted that site. They deleted it from secondary recycle bin. So not only from the primary recycle bin, but from the secondary recycle bin using PowerShell, which gave them the space that they needed. But what they found out a week later was that they needed data from that site because it contained client files. And so in that scenario, now they're open to legal, you know, risk coming in and getting fees that probably cost more than it does to implement a backup solution for that data. So that's one of the main reasons that they were coming to to look for that solution. Outstanding. And let's do one more. I guess, just to kinda wrap us up, what's one thing you wish every IT team knew about SaaS backup? Yeah. One thing that I wish everyone knew was how much time that you could save by implementing a solution like this. When you think about SaaS and what it provides, you know, as a service, you don't really think about the people cost or maybe a time investment as an administrator coming into the platform and how much time you do invest into patching and updating and creating support tickets. So a lot of these things are handled because as a service, we do have that information. We have the logs. We're doing the infrastructure. We're handling those patching those updates. So a lot of that time goes right back into your day, and you may not feel it right away. But over time, you'll you'll start to be able to take on new projects. You'll be able to develop new processes, implement things like self-service, and get really comfortable with delegating certain responsibilities instead of feeling you like, you need to take care of all of that on yourself. Outstanding. Well, again, John, thank you for your time. Thanks for everybody for showing up. We, we're we're glad to bring you, these webinars and this introduction to some fantastic solutions. So, I will draw your attention real quick to the webinar chat where you'll see both John's email as well as mine. So feel free to reach out with any questions specific to Veeam, or any IT solution, needs you may have in general. Feel free to give me a call. So, again, thank you guys for your time. We appreciate you. And, John, thank you so much. Have a great day. Thanks, Al. Talk to you soon. Appreciate it.
