Summary
Veeam and Scale Computing announce native integration between Veeam Data Platform and Scale Computing HyperCore, positioning the partnership as a VMware alternative for organizations facing rising virtualization costs and complexity. The solution combines Veeam's backup and recovery capabilities with Scale Computing's simplified virtualization platform, targeting mid-market organizations, distributed enterprises, and public sector customers seeking to reduce operational overhead while maintaining ransomware resilience. Key capabilities include agentless automated backup, immutable air-gapped storage, centralized management across hybrid environments, and portable data formats to avoid vendor lock-in. The partnership addresses four primary use cases: VMware replacement migrations, edge and remote office protection, ransomware recovery, and cloud adoption strategies. Both vendors emphasize the 'do more with less' mandate facing IT departments, framing the joint solution as a path to lower costs, faster recovery times, and flexible modernization at the customer's own pace.
