Sangfor Technologies has announced that Sangfor aSV, the native hypervisor engine powering Sangfor HCI, is now supported by Veeam Backup & Replication 13.1 through a dedicated Veeam plug-in.
The integration enables organizations to protect workloads running on Sangfor HCI directly within the Veeam environment, delivering a unified backup and recovery experience.
As organizations evaluate VMware alternatives and pursue virtualization modernization initiatives, maintaining a consistent data protection approach remains a critical requirement. Organizations seeking greater flexibility in their virtualization environments often prefer to retain familiar backup and recovery workflows while minimizing operational disruption.
With native support in Veeam Backup & Replication, organizations can adopt Sangfor HCI while continuing to leverage the backup and recovery capabilities of the Veeam ecosystem. This helps simplify data protection operations and eliminates the need for separate backup platforms. By extending Veeam’s proven backup and recovery capabilities to Sangfor HCI environments, organizations can modernize their virtual infrastructure with greater operational consistency and flexibility.
The Veeam plug-in enables organizations to add Sangfor hosts directly to their Veeam backup infrastructure. As a supported hypervisor platform within Veeam Backup & Replication, Sangfor HCI provides backup and recovery capabilities aligned with Veeam’s enterprise data protection standards.
Through the integration, organizations can benefit from:
- Unified Protection and Management for Sangfor Hypervisor
Protect and manage Sangfor Hypervisor workloads directly within the Veeam environment through a unified backup and recovery experience. - Efficient Backup and Flexible Recovery
Reduce backup windows with Changed Block Tracking (CBT) while enabling full VM recovery and granular file-level restores. - Enterprise-Ready Backup Operations
Support diverse data protection requirements with forward incremental, forever-forward incremental, active full, and synthetic full backup options. - Seamless Integration with the Veeam Ecosystem
Leverage existing Veeam tools, processes, and expertise while extending protection to Sangfor environments.
Veeam Plug-in for Sangfor aSV 1.0 is included with Veeam Backup & Replication 13.1 and requires Veeam Backup & Replication 13.1.0.411 or later.
