2018 time frame is much more of a possibility if KVM continues its current trend. It is the short-term where adding KVM support makes no business sense for us based on its absolute market share in the companies who would actually be willing to pay for a backup solution.

There’s also the upcoming Agents for Windows & Linux which can be used in the interim to backup VMs in KVM and other open source hypervisors.

[MERGED] Roadmap — AIX? KVM? Xenserver?

Post by Cullan » Oct 27, 2016 8:20 pm this post

Just wondering if there are any plans to support systems such as AIX or adding any new hypervisor support — KVM, xenserver?

Have you recently done any customer surveys to keep track of your customer-base’s interest in alternative hypervisors?

I’d say KVM would still be niche. Nutanix is very expensive compared to san/host/vmware or hyperv comobo.

Hyperv + storage spaces direct are going to give Nutanix a run for their money over the next few years.

I can agree on the first part (for now, but things are moving fast), but not (fully) on the second part. Please be carefull when you link KVM usage to willingness to invest in backup solutions. I’m not seeing that link as a storage/server/virt./Veeam reseller & integrator.
I think, based on customer feedback, VMware is on the wrong path regarding license costs. Talk to the «old» vSphere Enterprise edition customers for example.

If you have Windows or Linux VMs running on a KVM hypervisor you can always use Veeam Agent for Linux and Veeam Endpoint Backup to cover these workloads. Since agents work on a guest level, such scenario is supported

I have to disagree on your last point.
Most if not all of our small customers are running a kvm based hypervisor solution(single host) and _all_ of them are paying for offsite backup today and in all cases it’s an inferior product, compared to B&R+cloud connect.

I am confident that if B&R supported KVM / libvirt hosts, then most of those customers would move to a cloud connect based solution.

The only argument against using something like Proxmox, compared to similarly costing version of hyper-v, for a small customer needing a single host, running

Maybe Veeam could add a nice GUI for KVM as well with functionality comparable to the old vSphere client.

Acropolis Change Block Tracking (CBT) for Backup Vendors
With AOS 5.0 backup vendors can take full advantage of Nutanix based CBT (hypervisor agnostic) to take both incremental and differential backups of disks and VMs more efficiently. If your cluster only running VMware vSphere you already have CBT via the hypervisor; however with Nutanix CBT similar capabilities are available to the base platform enabling multi-hypervisor CBT support. Administrator will now be able use the same backup tools and methods across all supported hypervisors.
Nutanix CBT utilizes the new REST 3.0 API that can be used to query for the changed meta-data regions given any two snapshots of a virtual disk or virtual machine. The approach is valuable for taking incremental and differential backups; and even useful while taking full backups because the API identifies regions that are spare (zeroed), therefore saving on read operations.
Nutanix will soon announce backup partners integrating natively with the platform.

FAQ

As you begin to adopt new Red Hat Virtualization (RHV) infrastructure, its data and VMs will need to be protected in order to be prepared for DR and to maintain compliance. To ensure that all VMs and their data are protected, Red Hat provides its own backup interface in which you can generate snapshot or file-level backup of RHV VMs to the backup storage of your choice. The key is to take advantage of a data protection solution that provides native integration with this process and RHV’s use of Red Hat CBT to ensure that only new unique changes are protected, reducing the backup time and impact on your storage.

Veeam Backup & Replication v11a now adds support for Red Hat Virtualization (RHV) 4.4. Please check with the platform vendor for the appropriate supported version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux for RHV.

Veeam Backup & Replication v11a now offers reliable integrated backup for Red Hat Virtualization (RHV) so that customers running KVMs can be prepared for both common and disaster recovery scenarios. With fast snapshot recovery for RHV VMs, Veeam customers can meet recovery objectives with confidence using the solution that is flexible for their needs and natively integrated with Red Hat Virtualization.
