How to install [product]

Installing Veeam Kasten K10 Enterprise on a Kubernetes cluster is designed to be straightforward and repeatable across environments. The following steps outline a typical deployment workflow for a 1-node Kubernetes environment, with best practices that help ensure a smooth setup and reliable protection from day one.

1. Prepare the cluster and prerequisites: Verify your Kubernetes version is supported by Kasten K10 Enterprise and ensure your cluster meets minimum CPU, memory, and storage requirements. Confirm network connectivity to your chosen storage backends and to any cloud or on-prem artifacts that backups may target. Install essential tooling such as kubectl and Helm (if you plan to deploy via Helm). Ensure you have a valid license key or activation method as part of the initial configuration.
2. Obtain access to the Kasten K10 control plane: Access the Kasten K10 management interface through your cluster’s namespace (usually created during deployment). Ensure you have appropriate RBAC permissions to install and configure the Kasten components and to create backup policies for the workloads you intend to protect.
3. Deploy Kasten K10: Use the supported deployment method (Helm chart or YAML manifests) to install the Kasten K10 control plane and data plane onto the cluster. Follow the vendor’s guidance to install the operator and required CRDs (Custom Resource Definitions). This step provisions the Kasten K10 back-up tooling, the UI, and the data-protection agents that interface with your Kubernetes workloads.
4. Register your environment and apply licensing: Activate the Enterprise edition with your 1-node license. Validate that the license is recognized by the Kasten K10 control plane and that feature flags associated with the Enterprise edition are enabled. Confirm that the Basic Support terms are active for the license term.
5. Create backup policies and targets: Define backup policies that reflect your data protection objectives. Select namespaces, applications, and storage targets (S3-compatible object storage, NFS, or other supported backends). Configure retention windows, backup windows, encryption, and any compliance-related requirements. Run initial test backups to verify coverage and recovery readiness.
6. Test restores and DR workflows: Execute test restores for critical workloads to validate application recovery. Perform a disaster recovery (DR) drill to ensure your recovery procedures are effective, and adjust policies as needed based on observed RPO/RTO goals and business requirements.
7. Ongoing governance and monitoring: Utilize Kasten K10’s dashboards and audit trails to monitor backup activity, policy adherence, and storage consumption. Schedule periodic reviews of protection status and update policies to accommodate new applications or changes in the Kubernetes environment.

Tips for success: Keep your backup storage in a location that is isolated from production for resilience, enable encryption at rest for sensitive data, and regularly review violation or anomaly alerts. For public sector deployments, follow any additional security controls or compliance frameworks mandated by your organization and jurisdiction.

Frequently asked questions

What is Veeam Kasten K10 Enterprise Edition?

Veeam Kasten K10 Enterprise Edition is a Kubernetes-native data management platform that provides backup, restore, disaster recovery, and application-m-aware protection for containerized workloads. It is designed to protect databases, stateful services, and microservices running in Kubernetes clusters, with enterprise capabilities like policy-based automation, RBAC, multi-tenant governance, and robust integration with diverse storage backends.

What does Basic Support include?

Basic Support typically covers core assistance for installation, configuration, and essential operational questions during the license term. It ensures access to product updates, critical patches, and standard technical support channels. For mission-critical environments, you may consider adding higher-tier support options for faster response times and expanded coverage.

What does the 1-node license mean?

The 1-node license indicates that the protection features are licensed for a single Kubernetes cluster (node set) within the scope of the deployment. This license is suitable for smaller clusters, development environments, or specific production workloads that run on one cluster. If you expand to additional clusters, additional licenses may be required per node or per cluster according to the licensing terms.

Is this license suitable for Public Sector deployments?

Yes. The listing notes Public Sector pricing, which means terms and pricing are aligned with public sector procurement requirements. Public Sector deployments typically include considerations for data sovereignty, compliance, and governance. Always verify that the license terms meet your jurisdictional and organizational compliance standards.

What storage backends and platforms are supported?

Kasten K10 Enterprise supports a wide range of storage backends (S3-compatible object stores, NFS, other cloud/bare-metal storage) and Kubernetes platforms (including OpenShift, EKS, AKS, GKE, and on-prem clusters). This enables consistent protection across multi-cloud and hybrid environments.

How do I verify backup and restore success?

After configuring backup policies, run initial backups and perform test restores of representative workloads. Verify that application data, state, and configurations restore correctly within the expected RTO and RPO targets. Use Kasten K10 dashboards to monitor backup health, storage consumption, and policy compliance.

Can I upgrade or change the edition later?

Upgrades or changes in edition typically involve licensing adjustments and may require an updated license key or renewal. Contact your sales representative or vendor support to review upgrade paths, pricing implications, and licensing alignment with your evolving Kubernetes environment.
