Two Traditional Approaches


How to be Protected

Disaster Recovery by Duplication

Disaster Recovery by Back-up


DR by Duplication

• Focus is on protecting application– Local cluster– Duplicate hot site– Like for like infrastructure

• High performance, but at what price?– Near Zero RTO, RPO

• High cost– Duplicate infrastructure– Cost x2


DR by Back-up

• Focus is on protecting data– Tape back-up– Imaging

• Poor performance– Slow RTO, RPO (days)

• Cost effective, but at what price?– How do we get the data back

in to a useable state?– How long to rebuild the server?


The Challenge


Balancing Three Challenges

ConsolidatedDisasterRecovery


Technology Overview


Workload: The (New) IT Paradigm

A workload is anintegrated stack ofapplication, middleware,and operating systemthat accomplishes a computing task

A workload is portableand platform agnostic–it can run in physical,virtual or cloudcomputing environments

A workload or acollection ofworkloads makesup a businessservice, which iswhat the end userconsumes


The PlateSpin® Solution


Bridging the GapCompleting your DR architecture

• Fast RTO and RPO• Duplicate Resources• Costly and Complex

• Slow RTO and RPO• Over Commitment of Recovery Resources

Duplication Backup


Consolidated RecoveryLeveraging Virtual Infrastructure for Protection of Physical servers

Solution• Replication of workload into an off-line

virtual machine

• One click failover

• One click test restore

• Flexible failback

Benefits• Drastically reduce TCO and RTO while

achieving whole workload protection

• Improving RPO through incremental synchronization

• Simplify testing with bootable backups

What do Customers Have to Say?


Nichols College

“Disaster recovery solutions can be very complex ... PlateSpin Forge is very straightforward. There’s just one piece of hardware to manage. It’s low maintenance, and has low overhead. Without it, we certainly would have spent more money on another disaster recovery solution that would have required more resources to support it.”

South Tahoe Public Utility District

“Without PlateSpin Forge in place, we would have really been scrambling, as it could easily take 25-30 staff hours to get a new server up and running ... With PlateSpin Forge, we had the new server up and running within just three to four hours.”

Features and Benefits


Key BenefitsHeterogeneous Workload Protection

`

How does it work?

Step 1 - Add workload: PlateSpin discovers the workload information (OS, volumes, etc)

Recovery Cloud

Production Server

Step 2 – Configure and prepare: PlateSpin creates and prepares a VM on the virtual infrastructure

Step 3 – Replicate the WorkloadPlateSpin replicates the whole workload into the virtual environment and replicates changes on a pre-defined schedule afterwards

Recovery Cloud

One solution to protect all Windows and Linux workloads (physical and virtual)


Key BenefitsRapid Failover In the event of a disaster, recover failed workloads in minutes

How does it work?

Step 1 – Offline workload detectedPlateSpin notifies the administrator that the protected workload(s) have gone offline

Step 2 – User initiates the failoverThe user initiates the failover through a web based user interface, a mobile device or through an API

Step 3 – Workload is failed-overPlateSpin powers on and configures the replica VM on the virtual infrastructure

Recovery Cloud

Failover a single workload, a business service or the whole site


Key BenefitsFlexible FailbackIn the event of a disaster, recover failed workloads in minutes

How does it work?

Step 1 – New or Repaired target discoveredPlateSpin discovers the new or repaired target production server

Step 2 – Failback to bare metal or Sync to repaired ServerThe user can initiate a live failback to either bare metal server or repaired original for maximum flexibility

Step 3 – Business as usualPlateSpin shuts down the recovery VM and replaces it with the newly configured production machine

Recovery Cloud

Don’t get stuck in DR mode, seamlessly recover back to normal


Key BenefitsTesting and Reporting

Test Network

Protected workloads can be tested at any time without affecting the production environment

How does it work?

Step 1 – Test FailoverPlateSpin Protect powers on the replica VM and attaches it to a test network

Step 2 – InspectionWorkloads running in a test environment can be inspected either manually or by running automated scripts

Step 3 – Test ReportPlateSpin Protect captures test information (the time to recover, user comments, etc) and generates test reports.

Recovery Cloud

Test a single workload

or the entire business service

Run tests to stay compliant

Automate testing through the Protection API
