Candidates who take the VDCD510 exam in a country where English is not a primary language will have an additional 30 minutes added to the exam time. This time extension is automatic, no additional action is required from the candidate. There were jsut a few questions with a […]

It’s the new version of Veeam Backup & Replication 6.1 that add several enhancements from the v6.0: VeeamZIP: a new capability for performing ad-hoc backups.
