CONTENUTI

Introduction

• Review the architecture principles
• Explore what a successful architecture looks like
• Review Veeam’s architecture methodology

 

Discovery

• Analyze the existing environment
• Uncover relevant infrastructure metrics
• Uncover assumptions and risks
• Identify complexity in the environment

 

Conceptual design

• Review scenario and data from discovery phase
• Identify logical groups of objects that will share resources based on requirements
• Create a set of detailed tables of business and technical requirements, constraints, assumptions and risks
• Review infrastructure data with each product component in mind
• Create high level design and data flow

 

Logical design

• Match critical components and features of VBR with requirements
• Create logical groupings
• Determine location of components and relationship to logical grouping
• Aggregate totals of component resources needed per logical grouping
• Calculate component (storage, CPU, memory) quantity sizing

 

Physical/tangible design

• Convert the logical design into a physical design
• Physical hardware sizing
• Create a list of physical Veeam backup components

 

Implementation and Governance

• Review physical design and implantation plan
• Review Veeam deployment hardening
• Describe the architect’s obligations to the implementation team
• Provide guidance on implementation specifics that relate to the design

 

Validation and Iteration

• Provide framework for how to test the design
• Further develop the design according to a modification scenario
