Instant Secure Data Protection without Hardware Lock-In   

Veeam Software, the global leader in Data Resilience has announced the release of its first fully prebuilt, pre-hardened software appliance – the new Veeam Software Appliance. Designed to simplify deployment and boost cyber resilience, this software-only solution empowers IT teams to achieve instant data protection without the cost and limitations of hardware lock-in.   

Breaking Away from Traditional Hardware Appliances 

Unlike conventional hardware appliances, the Veeam Software Appliance is hardware-agnostic. Organizations can deploy it across physical, virtual or cloud environments while enjoying the simplicity of a fully preconfigured solution.

Delivered as a bootable ISO or virtual appliance, it runs on a hardened, Veeam-managed Linux OS (JeOS). This ensures a secure, always-updated foundation without the need for manual patching, Windows licensing or complex setup. 

  • First prebuilt, pre-hardened software appliance for rapid deployment    
  • Hardware-agnostic design – runs on existing infrastructure or preferred platforms  
  • Veeam-managed Linux OS (JeOS) with built-in immutability 
  • Zero Trust access controls for enhanced protection
  • Automated patching of OS and backup software  
  • Modern web UI with SAML single sign-on 
  • Instant recovery to Azure for fast, automated cloud restoration 

Security and Efficiency from Day One   

With immutability, automated patching and streamlined compliance, the Veeam Software Appliance provides robust resilience immediately upon deployment. Its software-only model eliminates hardware lock-in, reduces total cost of ownership and makes it ideal for new sites, edge deployments or teams needing fast backup solutions.

“Our Veeam Software Appliance enables fast, secure, pre-configured data protection for every organization,” said Anand Eswaran, CEO at Veeam. “It runs out of the box, giving teams confidence, agility and the freedom to protect their data without complexity.” 

Expanding Data Resilience    

This launch represents a major step forward in Veeam’s mission to deliver radical resilience to businesses worldwide. With over 550,000 customers (including 67% of the Global 2000), Veeam continues to innovate, offering flexible, secure and enterprise-ready solutions that protect data across cloud, virtual, physical, SaaS ang Kubernetes environments.

The Veeam Software Appliance is now available globally through an early release program and offers a 30-day free trial for new customers.
