This document is intended for Veeam Cloud & Service Providers (VCSP) or for those who want to become VCSPs that want to utilize Microsoft Azure for infrastructure and Azure Blob for storage. It provides the architectural and sizing detail needed to understand how to build a Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 (VBO365) system as a service, as well as provide the information necessary to perform a cost analysis for business justification.
It also provides runbook steps for deploying VBO365 in a Microsoft Azure environment. While there can be many use cases for different environment sizes, this document focuses the runbook portion on one use case sized for 1000 users to serve as guidance based on a set of educated assumptions.
The purpose of this document is to educate a VCSP on how to design and build a VBO365 system in a Microsoft environment, perform a cost analysis, and to get to market as quickly as possible.
