Veeam Availability Suite 9.5 Update 4, the latest version, will provide the customers data retention at a lower cost, easier cloud migration and data mobility, and cloud-native backup and protection for AWS.

These new capabilities will also be coming to the upcoming Veeam Availability for AWS and Veeam Availability Console v3. The company has expanded its relationships with Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, IBM Cloud, and over 20,000 service providers.
