Causes of Downtime
Strategy Considerations
•How quickly do I need to recover?-Cost of every hour (minute)
to business ops and reputation
•What level of outage do I need to protect against?
-System outage
-Site within a campus
-Within or across countries
•How does my strategy change with virtualization?
•How do I prove my strategy?-Testing without impacting production

Traditional Disaster Recovery
•Involves:-Complex processes and infrastructure-Precise training, documentation and execution
•Requires:-Dedicated identical hardware-Significant consumption of time and resources-2 to 3X the capacity used for production-Unacceptable levels of WAN utilization
•Results in:-Inability to test or often failed tests-Recovery times of days or weeks

Source and Target based Deduplicated Backup– Keep your backup infrastructure but reduce Cost
– Target Based Dedup90% less capacity10x backup performance
– Backup Built for Vmware– Source based Dedup
95% reduction in backup storage 90-99% less CPU/Memory/Network10x-20x faster backup30-50% increased server consolidation
Replication Functionality– Vmware-Integrated Array Snapshots
– Support for VMFS and NFS– Fastest macro-level, single step restore for a single VM
or an entire datastore
– Optional Database integration
VMware SRM- Array Integration– VMware Site Recovery Manager Integrated with
shared storage at every price point– Every protocol, every scale– Single click automated DR testing and failover– Require vCenter integrated Failback– VMaware Remote Replication
