Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. Tell us a little bit about your backgrounds. 

Topic 2 - We live in a world of software, and clouds, and ransomware attacks and security threats and frequent changes to applications. Let’s start by talking about the big picture of what backup looks like these days. 

Topic 3 - In a world that’s becoming increasingly more DevOps-centric, who now owns all of the elements around backups (testing plans, compliance, retention and cost-mgmt, etc.)

Topic 3a - What are some of the unique things Veeam does to make things simpler for those teams? 

Topic 4 - We used to live in a world of redundant, cold hardware in a remote facility, and truck rolls to Iron Mountain, and manual steps. What has public cloud and automation done to the backup landscape?

Topic 5 - How does the economics change now that public cloud is such a critical piece of backup strategies? (saving data, faster recovery times, agility, etc.)
