In order to function in an AWS environment, PowerProtect Data Manager requires that DD Virtual Edition (DDVE) also be present.
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 is always paired with backup software.
You can deploy DDVE to AWS either before or after you deploy PowerProtect Data Manager to AWS. You can also deploy DDVE to AWS outside of the PowerProtect Data Manager deployment process.
