Technical requirements
For this chapter, having Veeam Backup & Replication is a requirement, along with access to an Object Storage environment to work with SOBRs. If you have been following along with this book, then you will know that Chapter 1, Installation -– Best Practices and Optimizations, covered the installation and optimization of Veeam Backup & Replication, which you will leverage in this chapter. Additionally, you can reference the SOBR section of the Veeam website: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/backup_repository_sobr.html?ver=120.
