In a GCP environment, PowerProtect Data Manager requires an instance of DD Virtual Edition (DDVE).
DDVE is a software-only protection storage appliance: a virtual deduplication appliance that provides data protection for entry, enterprise, and service-provider environments. Like any PowerProtect DD System, DDVE always pairs with backup software.
When you deploy PowerProtect Data Manager to GCP, you can deploy DDVE simultaneously or outside of the deployment process. For more information, see PowerProtect DD Virtual Edition in Google Cloud Platform Installation and Administration Guide at Customer Support.
