What Veeam does
Veeam Backup & Replication takes image-level, application-aware backups of VMware and Hyper-V virtual machines, plus physical and cloud workloads, from a single console. It supports instant VM recovery, immutable/air-gapped repositories to keep backups out of reach of ransomware, and automatically protects new VMs as they're added to a host. Where Synology's HyperBackup is built around a NAS storing files and folders, Veeam operates at the hypervisor layer — the distinction that matters once a business is running virtualised servers rather than just file shares.
Where it fits
Backup & Disaster Recovery, as the platform for virtualised server environments rather than NAS-based file storage, and Incident Response & Data Recovery Planning, where Veeam-based restore is the recovery half paired with Black Panda's IR-1 containment.
Typical deployments
Businesses running VMware or Hyper-V virtual servers rather than flat file storage, and regulated clients (finance, government, GLC) needing a documented, tested VM-level recovery plan alongside their incident-response plan.
