Case Study: Veeam achieves scalable, low-cost on-prem backup and sub-15-minute recovery with Cloudian HyperStore (Cloudian)

Veeam and Cloudian Simplify Data Protection with Amazon S3-Compliant Storage

Veeam customers were facing growing backup capacity requirements and high costs/logistical challenges for offsite backup and disaster recovery. Cloudian was brought in as the vendor, using Cloudian HyperStore and Cloudian HyperStore Connect for Files alongside Veeam Backup & Replication to provide a plug‑and‑play on‑premises backup target that integrates directly with Veeam.

Cloudian implemented HyperStore as a scale‑out, S3‑compatible Veeam backup repository with policy‑based tiering to public cloud, optional target deduplication (up to 30:1), and seamless scaling from TBs to PBs. The Cloudian solution delivered faster recoveries (RTOs under 15 minutes with Veeam Instant Recovery), eliminated replication licenses, cut secondary backup costs (around 70% less and under $0.01/GB/month), and provided high throughput (>18 TB/hr with 16 nodes) plus durable, multi‑region protection.
