GDS Africa
Veeam Data Platform

Radical resilience for your data

Downtime and ransomware are when-not-if events. The Veeam Data Platform secures, backs up and recovers every workload — cloud, virtual, physical and SaaS — and GDS Africa delivers it end to end.

The challenge

Your data lives everywhere — so must your protection

Workloads now span on-premises, multiple clouds and SaaS apps. Protecting each with a different tool leaves gaps in coverage, recovery and ransomware defence.

One platform, any workload

Cloud, virtual, physical, SaaS and containers — protected and recovered from a single platform, not a patchwork of tools.

Recovery you can trust

Automated recovery verification and orchestrated testing mean your backups actually restore — proven, not assumed.

Ransomware-ready

Immutability plus malware detection give you a clean, trusted copy to recover from when an attack gets through.

The full platform

Backup, recovery and resilience — for everything

One platform across your whole estate, with the capabilities to back up, recover, orchestrate and defend your data.

Backup & Recovery

Fast, reliable backup and recovery for virtual, physical and cloud workloads — image-level, application-aware and verified.

Replication & CDP

Continuous Data Protection and replication for tier-1 systems, with near-zero RPO and fast failover when minutes matter.

Microsoft 365 & SaaS

Dedicated backup for Microsoft 365 (Exchange, SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams) — your SaaS data is your responsibility, not the vendor’s.

Cloud-native backup

Native protection for AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud workloads, with portable recovery across environments.

Ransomware resilience

Monitoring & analytics

Backup & DR as a service
