Database-Level Backup
Backup solutions for enterprise applications (Veeam Plug-Ins and MongoDB Backup) allow you to create transactionally-consistent database-level backups of SAP HANA, Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, IBM Db2 databases and MongoDB replica sets. These solutions extend the functionality of Veeam Backup & Replication and are distributed as part of the Veeam Backup & Replication installation image.
Backup solutions for enterprise applications use native database instruments to create backups. Created backups contain data only for databases (including application logs) without server data. For database-level backups created with Veeam Plug-Ins, Veeam Backup & Replication provides recovery of entire databases. You can recover data using native database tools or Veeam Explorers. For details on which database-level backup solutions support data recovery with Veeam Explorers, see Launching Veeam Explorer from Plug-in or MongoDB Backup.

- MongoDB Backup — a backup and recovery solution that allows you to back up and restore MongoDB replica sets.
Important |
Veeam Plug-Ins store database and log backups in repositories added to the Veeam Backup & Replication infrastructure. Thus, to use Veeam Plug-Ins, you must have a Veeam Backup & Replication server deployed in your infrastructure. To learn how to deploy Veeam Backup & Replication, see Deployment. |
