Cloud Snapshot Manager integration with PowerProtect DD Virtual Edition (AWS)

Cloud Snapshot Manager integration with PowerProtect DD Virtual Edition (DDVE) enables you to leverage the power of DDVE to retain AWS snapshot copies (backup copies) for a long period of time with high level of deduplication.

The powerful capabilities of Cloud Snapshot Manager are brought together with DDVE, the industry-leading deduplication storage appliance. With this integration, you can enjoy the benefit of snapshots while having the flexibility of keeping your backup data for a longer duration. With high level of deduplication delivered by DDVE, you can have your snapshots, maintain your long retention cycles, and have your storage cost reduced all at the same time.

The feature is available for all users at no extra cost. It also does not require a new Cloud Snapshot Manager license.

NOTE:  You have to deploy DDVE outside Cloud Snapshot Manager in your AWS environment. For more information, see PowerProtect DD Virtual Edition in Amazon Web Services Installation and Administration Guide available at Dell Technologies Online Support.
