Backup server
Based on the size of the infrastructure one of the following sizing recommendations can be used.
| Infrastructure size | Concurrent tasks | Backup server configuration | SQL server configuration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Up to 500 workloads | Up to 50 | 12 vCPU 24 GB RAM | PostgreSQL on a backup server |
| 500-1000 workloads | Up to 100 | 24 vCPU 32 GB RAM | PostgreSQL on a backup server |
| 1000-5000 workloads | Up to 500 | 48 vCPU 64 GB RAM | PostgreSQL on a backup server |
| 5000-10000 workloads | Up to 1000 | 56 vCPU 128 GB RAM | MS SQL on a backup server |
Note: The provided configurations apply only to the deployments performing VMware virtual infrastructure and/or physical machines backup. In case the solution protects additional types of workloads (NAS, enterprise database plugins, etc) a trusted Veeam technical advisor must be consulted.
