Considerations and Limitations

Consider the following:

  • Veeam Data Cloud Vault is available in several edition options and Azure region settings. For more information, see Veeam Data Cloud Vault Editions Comparison.
  • The maximum number of Veeam Data Cloud Vault subscriptions is 4 subscriptions for an organization.
  • There is no limit to the number of vaults per Veeam Data Cloud Vault subscription.
  • Starting from version 12.3, Veeam Backup & Replication supports extended integration with Veeam Data Cloud Vault. Veeam Data Cloud Vault users can connect the product with Veeam Backup & Replication to avoid sharing storage vault credentials. For more information, see Using with Veeam Backup and Replication.
  • Veeam Data Cloud Vault only integrates with Veeam Backup & Replication. You are not permitted to use it with other products to upload data.
  • You can use a vault storage as a Veeam Cloud Connect repository.
  • Veeam Backup & Replication traffic throttling rules apply to Veeam Data Cloud Vault scenarios.

Note

For Veeam Cloud Connect Backup, you can only use the Veeam Data Cloud Vault storage as a cloud repository if the Veeam Data Cloud Vault object storage repository is added on the service provider side in the connection through a gateway server mode. In this scenario, traffic throttling rules are defined per tenant in the properties of the tenant account. To learn more, see the Network Traffic Throttling section in the Veeam Cloud Connect User Guide.

  • To connect Veeam Data Cloud Vault with Veeam Backup & Replication, the Veeam Data Cloud Vault subscription and the Veeam backup server must belong to the same organization on the My Account portal. Consider this in the scenario where the account under which you log in to My Account belongs to multiple organizations.
  • One Veeam Backup & Replication server can be connected to multiple storage vaults. This may be useful if you want to create backups in different locations.
  • Multiple Veeam Backup & Replication servers can be connected to the same storage vault. In this scenario, you can add the same storage vault as an object storage repository on multiple backup servers. Each backup server will create backups in a separate folder within this object storage.
  • Veeam Data Cloud Vault only supports the Azure cool access tier.
  • You cannot seed data from the Azure Data Box device to Veeam Data Cloud Vault.
  • Before you start using Veeam Data Cloud Vault as an object storage repository in Veeam Backup & Replication, get familiar with considerations and limitations. For details, see the Veeam Data Cloud Vault Considerations and Limitations section in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.
