HPE Backup & Disaster Recovery

Fortify Your Data Resilience with Veeam & Zerto Powered by HPE

As data volumes grow and cyber threats intensify, organisations need more than traditional backup or basic DR. They require a layered, cyber resilient strategy that protects data, ensures availability, and enables rapid recovery.

HPE, Veeam, and Zerto deliver this through a unified Data Resilience by Design approach, combining enterprise backup, immutable storage, and continuous disaster recovery on intelligent HPE infrastructure.

Keep Pace with Modern Threats

The rapid expansion of data has created an urgent need for more robust and adaptable protection. Yet many solutions struggle to keep pace with modern threats. With ransomware and malicious actors an ever present risk, organisations require a security strategy that is both comprehensive and purpose built.

Within HPE’s reference architecture, Veeam and Zerto are not competing disaster recovery tools, but complementary technologies designed to address different aspects of cyber resilience. Each plays a distinct and critical role in a layered protection model.

Veeam underpins foundational data protection, delivering secure backup, immutability, long term retention and recovery, alongside advanced ransomware detection and scanning capabilities. It ensures data integrity and recoverability over time.

Zerto, by contrast, is purpose built for near zero RPO and RTO disaster recovery and cyber recovery vault use cases, enabling rapid workload recovery and operational continuity in the event of an outage or cyber incident.

Together, backed by HPE’s intelligent infrastructure, Veeam and Zerto form complementary layers of cyber resilience, combining long term data protection with real time recovery. The result is an enterprise grade approach to backup, disaster recovery and cyber recovery that is secure, scalable and future ready, without compromise.

About Veeam

Backup & Data Protection Foundation

Veeam Data Platform is HPE’s strategic backup partner, providing secure, scalable protection for modern workloads across hybrid environments.

Veeam Data Platform now delivers native, image level VM backup for HPE Morpheus VM Essentials, supporting agentless protection across multiple hypervisors. This enables seamless workload mobility between VMware and HPE VME, while helping organisations optimise licensing costs by up to 90% through reduced dependency on legacy virtualisation platforms.

For cloud native environments, Veeam Kasten complements this capability by providing purpose built protection for containerised workloads, ensuring consistent backup and recovery across both traditional VMs and Kubernetes environments.

About Zerto

Continuous Disaster Recovery & Cyber Resilience

Cyber Resilience Use Case

Zerto integrates with HPE Cyber Resilience Vault, providing:

Isolated recovery environments
Encrypted, continuous replication
Air gapped recovery at scale

Zerto is a software-defined solution designed for enterprise-class business continuity and disaster recovery.

Key Capabilities

Image based, agentless backup for VMware and HPE Morpheus VM Essentials
Immutable backups for ransomware protection
Longterm retention and compliance
Broad repository support (HPE StoreOnce, Alletra, object storage)
Cross-platform “restore anywhere”
Protection for SaaS, physical, cloud and Kubernetes (via Veeam Kasten)

HPE Integration Highlights

Native image level backup for HPE Morpheus VM Essentials
Unified protection across VMware and KVM environments
Up to 90% virtualisation licensing cost reductionwhen modernising

Key Capabilities

Journal-based CDP replication, capturing changes every few seconds
RPOs of seconds and RTOs of minutes for near instant recovery
Built-in orchestration and automation to streamline failover and failback

For long-term retention, compliance, and immutable backups, Zerto is designed to work alongside Veeam, which provides extended data retention, secure backups, and ransomware detection. Together, they form complementary layers within a modern cyber resilience architecture—Zerto for rapid operational recovery, and Veeam for durable, compliant data protection.

Zerto’s continuous data protection enables near-instant recovery. In real-world scenarios, customers like TenCate reduced recovery time from two weeks to under 10 minutes following a ransomware attack.

Providing continuous data protection and rapid recovery, Zerto enables automated disaster recovery across both hypervisor and cloud environments. Rather than long-term backup retention, Zerto maintains seconds level recovery journals, typically retained for hours to days, to support fast and precise rollback during cyber incidents or outages.

Backup & Disaster Recovery Reinvented

By combining Veeam and Zerto solutions, you can provide your customers with united and unmatched data protection and disaster recovery. Synergy between the two products ensures that downtime is almost non-existent and data is defended, even during ransomware attacks or major outages.

The complementary nature of Veeam and Zerto enables a comprehensive, scalable and future-ready solution that protects workloads, ensures compliance and keeps businesses running – no matter what.

This joint solution is part of HPE’s ‘Data Resilience by Design’ approach, empowering enterprises to proactively secure and recover data across hybrid environments. Available via HPE GreenLake, it offers cloud-like agility with enterprise-grade protection.

Key Benefits

Cloud-Native Protection

Immutable Storage

Competitive Differentiators

HPE Alletra Storage MP is the first - and currently, the only - primary storage platform with immutable snapshots orchestrated by Veeam Data Platform.
HPE Alletra Storage Server 4000 with Veeam Data Platform hardened Linux repository delivers 17 GB/s backup and 13.2 GB/s restore performance.
Zerto software can be added for a complete ransomware protection of virtualised applications, offering encrypted continuous replication that enables the lowest RPO while Zerto Cyber Resilience Vault provides complete data isolation and physical air-gapping.
HPE Alletra and Zerto Vault offer end-to-end data lifecycle management with built in cyber resilience, unifying hybrid cloud operations with rapid recovery from ransomware. It’s scalable, secure, intelligent infrastructure for modern workloads.
HPE's integration of Morpheus Data into GreenLake provides a comprehensive hybrid cloud solution by enabling multi-cloud and multi-vendor application provisioning, orchestration, and automation, as well as cloud cost optimisation.
