Understanding Veeam DataLabs – What are they?

Veeam DataLabs is an included component of Veeam Backup & Replication, which enables availability and security by reducing malware risks, deploying upgrades and patches, allowing DevOps/Test, and allowing for the mitigation and remediation of compliance risks.

Some of the many useful features you can implement using the Veeam DataLab include the following:

  • Automated backup and replica verification using SureBackup and SureReplica.
  • OnDemand Sandbox allows you to bring up servers in a segregated environment and enable users to access this without affecting production.
