overview perspective, why you would want it and what its capabilities are. But first let's log into the Veeam Data Cloud. You have two options. You can log in with your Microsoft account, but I'm going to be logging in with my Veeam account. So I've already logged in today, so it's just going to ask me for my one-time passcode because I have multi-factor authentication set up. So I'm just going to pop in my one-time passcode and hopefully we'll be able to log in. And that's going to bring me into the overview section of Veeam Data Cloud. But let me first talk about why you would want Veeam Data Cloud. Well, Veeam Data Cloud is for protecting your as-a-service workload data. So if you have workloads in Azure, you have configurations in Enter ID, and you have data in Microsoft 365, Salesforce or Vault, or the optional here we have AWS as well, you need to be able to protect that data. Obviously it's made available by Microsoft and AWS in that particular use case, but you do need to protect that data, have multiple copies and multiple restore points available of that data outside the system if possible. And Veeam Data Cloud gives you the easy way of performing this. There is nothing to install, nothing to size. It is an as-a-service capability with Veeam Data Cloud. So as we start to look at the overview here, you can see that the active workloads I have within my subscription available to me is Azure, Enter ID, Microsoft 365, Salesforce and Vault, and with the option of AWS as I mentioned earlier. In this session, we're going to be looking at an overview. We're going to go into much more detail into each area in up and coming videos. So let's take a look at the dashboard. From the dashboard, you can see here that I am protecting all the workloads I'm meant to be protecting within my policies. I have two tenants and there is nothing unprotected. I'm actually protecting my Microsoft 365 data, including Exchange, OneDrive for Business, SharePoint and Teams. I'm also protecting my Enter ID data. You can see here I've got 362 protected objects within my Enter ID. If I scroll down a little bit here, you can see just a highlight of the backup session activity. You can see here the Microsoft 365, the Enter ID backup happening. I may have some restore sessions that I have performed. I haven't performed any recently. This is a lab, but you would see those here as well. If I go into a more detailed activity, you see a longer historical data here around the activities that have gone on for both backups. You can see here, restore sessions and also audit logs as well. If we take a look at the audit log, see if it shows us anything. Just take a moment to come up and you can see here in the activity that you see most of just me logging in and out. So if we look at some of the workloads in more detail, we can look at Microsoft 365 and you can see here that I'm consuming 17 licenses. I'm going to go into a little bit more detail, but not too much. As I said, we'll be looking at them in more detail in future sessions. You can see there I have a protection status of 100 percent, 58 objects protected, and that's made up of Exchange, Teams, SharePoint, and OneDrive. Again, the activities are shown just at the bottom of the UI there. We have notifications, of course, of interesting and important items. You can configure those as you wish. Reports, you can run reports, you can schedule reports. I don't have any in this particular lab at the moment. One thing that's a little different with VDC, so in VDP we have the the concept of backup jobs. For VDC we have backup policies. Now I'm not going to go into too much detail around those. We'll be looking at those in future sessions, but you can see here I have two policies set up. One that is protecting the entire organization, and one that's protecting just selected items. And that's all I'm going to talk about backup policies here in this session. We also have the ability to again look at any threats, activities, and additional settings for each type of workload. But if we just pop across the individual workloads, you can see here within Azure I'm not protecting any Azure workloads at the moment. I will be configuring that in a later video. But for EnterID, I am protecting my EnterID. So if we just highlight that, you can see there I have 362 protected objects. If we go a little bit deeper, we can see here that my protection is turned on, and you can see here the types of object protected applications, roles, users, groups, and administrative units. So very healthy lab environment, everything is protected. We could go into a little bit more detail around the objects protected, and it's a bit more detail. Again we're not going to go too deep in this session, purely just an overview. Coming down to Salesforce, I'm not protecting Salesforce, but again you would see in here if you were. And then we have Vault, and this is where we have the configuration of the storage, and unlimited storage is available within your subscription. So it's very easy, as I mentioned, nothing to configure, nothing to size, nothing to patch. This is an as-a-service capability from Veeam protecting as-a-service predominantly from Microsoft and AWS. Please look out for future videos as we go and explore more of the details within VDC. Thank you.

TL;DR

  • Veeam Data Cloud is a fully managed, as-a-service backup platform requiring no installation, sizing, or patching — designed to protect cloud-native workloads from Microsoft and AWS.
  • The portal provides a unified Dashboard showing protection status, backup and restore session history, and audit logs across all connected workloads in a single view.
  • Supported workloads include Microsoft 365, Microsoft Entra ID, Azure, Salesforce, AWS, and Vault, with 100% protection status demonstrated across Microsoft 365 and Entra ID in the lab.

Summary

This introductory episode of the Veeam Data Cloud series walks through the portal from first login to a full workload overview. Kevin Ridings demonstrates signing in using either a Microsoft or Veeam account with multi-factor authentication, then tours the Overview and Dashboard sections, which provide at-a-glance protection status across all connected workloads. The platform supports as-a-service data protection for Microsoft 365 (Exchange, OneDrive for Business, SharePoint, and Teams), Microsoft Entra ID, Azure, Salesforce, AWS, and Vault storage — all without requiring any software installation, infrastructure sizing, or patching. The Dashboard confirms protection coverage across tenants, surfaces backup and restore session history, and exposes audit logs for compliance visibility. A key distinction highlighted is the shift from backup jobs (used in Veeam Data Platform) to backup policies in Veeam Data Cloud, with policies configurable to cover an entire organization or selected objects. The Vault workload provides unlimited storage within the subscription, reinforcing the fully managed, consumption-based model. This episode serves as a high-level orientation, with deeper dives into each individual workload planned for subsequent videos in the series.
