Cloud Adopters Are Ahead of The Game
Important triggers for cloud continuity
• No second site or offsite plan, whatsoever
• Significant pain with managing a secondary site
• Significant pain with managing storage
• Using traditional strategies – tape or rotating disk

Wrong choices can be costly!
30% of cloud spending is wasted.

What Cloud to use?
Public / Hyperscale Clouds
Managed Service Providers
Vendor Cloud
© 2017 Unitrends 7
Protect your ideas/business
Align continuity with criticality
Protect Everything You HaveWhich workloads matter the most?
© 2017 Unitrends 8
Focus on individual backup tasks, not business requirements
Leave IT blind about recovery compliance
No confidence in achieving or communicating SLAs
Act only as a cost (insurance policy) rather than a value driver:
Increase productivity
Reduced infrastructure costs
Proactive analytics
Challenge: Most solutions are not business focused

1. Understand your needs

5 Critical Success Factors
Object (ie. Azure Blob)
• Lowest cost
• Most dynamic
• Slowest performing (for most applications)
Block (VM Hard Disk)
• Highest performing (even SSDs)
• Less flexible / dynamic
• Highest cost (also requires compute)
2. Select the right cloud storage strategy
© 2017 Unitrends 22
5 Critical Success Factors
3. Avoid unnecessary compute costs
• Significant cost impact
• Up to 70+% of total solution
• Sometimes necessary:
• Enterprise functionality (WAN acceleration, global dedupe, etc.)
• Short, predictable RTOs

When Boomerang Might Not Be Ideal
• Customer requires VMs with VMDKs >1TB
• Customer must use operating systems that are not supported in Azure or AWS
• Customer requires a solution that works with VMs that cannot take snapshots• iSCSI pass through disks
• Physical RDM disks
• Independent persistent disks
• Customer requires consistent, predictable recovery SLAs

Unitrends Cloud May Help Instead
Solve Boomerang/Azure/AWS limitations
• Backup-based
• Cloud storage seeding for large data sets
• DRaaS for VMware, Hyper-V, and Physical Windows
• 1-HR SLA
• Recovery Assurance –Automated DR Testing & Compliance Reporting

Data loss can occur with Office 365
• Office 365 data lives in the Microsoft cloud, not on a company’s own server
• Deleted email is gone after 14-30 days—totally unrecoverable
• Deleted SharePoint & OneDrive files are gone after 186 days
• Most lost data is due to user error
• Users can choose to permanently delete files & email
