There are many options.
SQL Plug-in backups.
- You can script the restore on a secondary server.
VMware Image Level Backup.
- You can instant restore a disk with the SQL database to the secondary system and run it from backup (maybe only suitable for short test) then hang in the SQL database file into the SQL server.
- You can do the same from a storage snapshot (with our storage snapshot processing). This gives you ultimate performance of your production storage for it.
- Use the virtual lab to start the whole server in a development environment. (Network sandbox environment).
- Use any kind of SQL restore with automation.
All the above you can automate.
I am not aware of any 3rd party tools that did copy data management for SQL with Veeam, but you can usually use any of them that can start a specific (restore/instant recovery) script.
