The first facet is that Microsoft is making an equity investment in Veeam. Although no terms of the financial arrangement were given, this does follow a $2 billion round in late 2024 in which Veeam was valued at $15 billion. There have been rumors swirling regarding the Kirkland, Wash.-based company going public, but Veeam is nearing $2 billion in revenue and maintains healthy margins so there’s no urgency to join the capital markets. - With this partnership, Microsoft and Veeam are co-innovating to ==infuse== AI into the Microsoft Cloud to protect against threats. Using AI, Veeam can predict where an attack might happen and protect against it before it occurs. This becomes increasingly important in the AI era as AI is fueled by data and if the data is not protected, the output from AI can be wrong and lead to bad decisions. This is a case of “fight fire with fire” in which companies need to use AI to protect the data that fuels AI. - I look at this partnership as a win-win-win. Microsoft gets a trusted partner with Veeam around which it can build a better data resiliency portfolio. For Veeam, protecting and recovering Microsoft workloads is what it does best. This partnership adds to the strong tailwinds the company currently has. Last year, it booted Dell as the top share player in backup and recovery, it has a great partnership with Salesforce, and now Microsoft sees it as such a strong partner, it invested in them. - The big winner, though, is customers. Microsoft software is used by almost every company, and being able to protect and recover data as needed brings a level of assurance to move forward with AI projects. <br> ## Words and Idioms ### multi-faceted /ˌmʌltiˈfæsɪtɪd/, /ˌmʌltaɪˈfæsɪtɪd/ 멀티패시리드 having many different aspects to be considered (문제, 보석등이)많은 면을 가진 ### infuse /ɪnˈfjuːz/ 1.
