We sell Veritas to some of our clients. There are some differences between Veritas NetBackup and Veritas CloudPoint. In CloudPoint, for example, now they're integrated with NetBackup itself. That is in the 9.1 version. There is not much difference in that. With NetBackup, I can take a VM-level backup and file-level backup. Similarly, in CloudPoint, you can take a volume-level backup. Currently, there is no file-level backup, or something similar, in the cloud, although I'm not sure about that. In NetBackup, you can have granularity, whereas, in CloudPoint, you can take volume-level backup, or the virtual machine, or the instance-level backup. I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten. We've mostly been happy with the product's capabilities. I would recommend the solution, however, those that take it on should have some knowledge of the solution and understand the prerequisites. It will make it easier to implement. Make sure to go over documentation or seek out information instead of going in blind.
Make sure that they test the encryption. If they want to replicate the EBS volumes between two regions, then they should understand the encryption if they want to encrypt the replicated volumes. I would rate Veritas CloudPoint a nine out of ten.
Cloud backup is a method of safeguarding data by storing its backups in a cloud computing environment. The purpose is to shield the data from physical damage, corruption, or loss. Cloud backup solutions bring several advantages over traditional on-premises backup systems, such as scalability, reliability, and ease of use.
