“Mastering Veeam Backup & Replication 13 - Fourth Edition” is now in publication and is ready to order either the book or e-book/kindle.

Well, since writing my first book on v10, I have since wrote three additional books including the latest release for v13.  It was a real pleasure to write this new book on v13 with all of the changes/enhancements that Veeam has put in to this release.  The process was smooth as always.  The team at Packt worked with me again and my busy schedule to create something I think that everyone will enjoy reading.  Whether you are a newbie with Veeam or a seasoned expert, you can learn something from this book.

Book Description
#

Veeam Backup & Replication v13 is a core component of the Veeam Data Platform and represents a significant shift toward security‑first, Zero Trust data protection. For backup administrators, mastering v13 is critical to protecting virtual, cloud, and hybrid workloads against outages, accidental data loss, and modern ransomware threats.

This book provides a practical, administrator‑focused guide to designing, deploying, and operating data protection environments using Veeam Data Platform v13. It emphasizes real‑world backup operations, infrastructure hardening, and recovery execution, enabling backup admins to move beyond basic job configuration toward resilient, audit‑ready designs.

You will gain hands-on experience with both foundational and advanced Veeam capabilities, including Continuous Data Protection (CDP) for low‑RPO workloads, Veeam AI using Veeam Intelligence, Instant Recovery for rapid workload restoration, monitoring, and analytics with Veeam ONE, High Availability for disaster recovery, and a look into the new Veeam Console with all its new enhancements. Throughout the book, cyber‑resilience concepts such as immutability, separation of duties, least privilege, and secure recovery validation are reinforced to align with Veeam v13’s Zero Trust architecture.

What you will learn

Who This Book Is For

Users will be VMware Administrators or Backup Administrators with existing knowledge of Veeam, and the topics covered in this book.  They will know Virtualization and Backup concepts to understand what gets discussed in each chapter.  Veeam is one of the leading modern data protection solutions, and learning this technology will help users protect their environments.  Most users will want to implement many of the topics discussed and investigate Veeam ONE for monitoring/reporting their infrastructure and High Availability for DR scenarios.
