Intended Audience

This guide is intended for backup administrators or consultants managing Veeam Backup & Replication on a daily basis. Most sections of this guide assume you already have hands on experience with Backup & Replication, and will serve as an "advanced user guide", meaning that more basic usage information, system requirements and the like must be found in User Guide in Veeam Helpcenter. Service providers delivering BaaS and DRaaS with Veeam Cloud Connect should refer to the corresponding Veeam Cloud Connect Reference Architecture.
