iland empowers businesses to protect critical data with enhanced visibility and management of cloud backup services for Veeam

IT teams and MSP channel partners will benefit from a powerful self-service management console to monitor and manage cloud backup services essential to achieving IT resiliency

London, UK – May 16, 2017– iland, an award-winning global cloud service provider of secure and compliant Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), Disaster-Recovery-as-a-Service (DRaaS) and cloud backup services, today announced the latest release of the iland Secure Cloud BackupSM with Veeam service. The new service integrates Veeam Cloud Connect Backup into iland’s award-winning Secure Cloud Console.

According to Gartner, by 2018, the number of enterprises using the cloud as a backup destination will double, up from 13% at the end of 2016*. iland has been helping protect customers’ businesses with backup services delivered from their global VMware-based platform for over two years and is now extending the powerful visibility and management capabilities already available for their Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) and Disaster Recovery-as-a-Service (DRaaS) solutions to their iland Secure Cloud Backup with Veeam solution.

With this integration into the iland Secure Cloud Console, customers and MSP channel partners now have visibility into cloud backup resources for multiple repositories across iland's globally distributed cloud infrastructure. Customers can monitor cloud storage usage, receive utilisation alerts and proactively scale resources up or down when required. The Console enables insight into detailed cloud billing information and usage analytics enabling IT teams to monitor storage utilisation over time and forecast potential backup storage needs driving better IT planning and strategic decision making.

“Having a robust and secure backup strategy in a location other than on-premises is an important part of achieving IT resiliency,” said Brian Ussher, President at iland. “We’re excited to be announcing new and unique backup management capabilities with this integration to our cloud console which will further empower our customers and MSP channel partners who rely on us to backup and protect critical business data in our secure global data centres around the world.”
