help Veeam Backup for AWS FAQ

Does Veeam Backup for AWS require a separate Veeam server to run?

No, Veeam Backup for AWS is designed as a native, standalone AWS application that operates entirely within the Amazon Web Services cloud. It does not require you to deploy or manage a traditional Veeam Backup & Replication (VBR) server on-premises. However, if you do have an existing VBR infrastructure, you can connect the two for centralized management.

What AWS services and resources can Veeam Backup for AWS protect?

The solution is specifically built to protect Amazon EC2 instances, allowing for policy-based backups of entire virtual machines. It also integrates natively with Amazon S3 for cost-effective, long-term retention of those backups. Furthermore, it supports advanced recovery features like Instant VM Recovery directly back into an AWS availability zone.

Is Veeam Backup for AWS included in the Veeam Universal License (VUL)?

Yes, Veeam Backup for AWS is fully integrated into Veeam's portable licensing model known as Veeam Universal License (VUL). This means a single VUL instance license can be used to protect a workload on AWS, and later repurposed to protect an on-premises VMware VM if needed. This licensing flexibility is a major selling point for organizations migrating workloads to the cloud.
