Veeam® Software, the #1 leader by market share in Data Resilience, recently announced the release of Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 v8, delivering the most comprehensive and flexible immutability for Microsoft 365 data.
Now organisations can ensure their Microsoft 365 data is resilient employing a zero-trust, multi-layered immutable strategy, making certain backup data is safe from potential changes or deletions so that its original integrity stays intact. Currently protecting more than 21 million Microsoft 365 users, Veeam safeguards customers’ critical Microsoft 365 data to ensure that their business keeps running no matter what happens.
“Losing the critical data, files and communications housed in Microsoft 365 is a catastrophic scenario for any organisation”, said John Jester, CRO at Veeam. “That’s why we’re protecting over 21 million users today, more than any vendor in market, making Veeam the #1 data resilience solution for Microsoft 365. Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 v8 ensures that despite expected cyber-attacks and data disruptions, organizations have ready access to critical business information to ensure business continuity. Now with the most comprehensive backup immutability for Microsoft 365, this release includes new architecture designed for efficiency and scale, as well as added support which is based directly on customer requests”.
Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 v8 combines immutable backups with existing immutable copies, delivering total defence for organisations’ backups. It provides the flexibility to store backup data on any object storage, including Azure Blob Storage, Amazon S3, IBM Cloud Object Storage, or S3-compatible storage.
In addition to enhanced immutability, Veeam enables increased enterprise scale and efficiency with Veeam Proxy Pools. This architectural update boosts backup processing speed by distributing traffic across multiple proxies. By intelligently sharing the load and staying under the radar of throttling, enterprises can achieve better backup performance and efficiently scale up large environments with tens of thousands of users.

Organisations now have the ability to use Linux-based backup proxies, providing more choices and a lower total cost of ownership.
