Why Agent-Based?
Real-Time or Throttled
3 Levels of Compression
Encryption can be Enabled
Control over RAM/Disk usage
Byte-Level, Changes Only
Unified Replication Engine
Replication Technology
Used in multiple Workflows for Windows and Linux
Many-to-one virtual and physical production server/VM protection and migration
Helper Appliances are either created (Windows) or deployed (Linux)
Target VM configuration does not have to match production physical/virtual configuration
Chipsets and hypervisors may be different between production and target
Centrally controlled and managed

DR_01BES_01
Full Server Migration and Failover Technology
Staged information overwrites system configuration (non-hardware)
Target is automatically rebooted at the conclusion of the process, and becomes the production server
Server Reboot
DR_01 BES_01
Identity, SID, GUID and all non-hardware configuration are overwritten. IP information may be replaced, or maintained with DNS updates to re-route users.

File and Folder Migration/Failover Technology
• Failback can be performed in several ways:
• Reverse operation using original tools
• Manually creating protection/failover in the opposite
direction (when original server is lost)
• Choosing a different tool entirely to create a
protection/failover configuration
• i.e. VRA to fail over, Full-Server to fail back
Failback Options
DR Edition
Available for Windows and Linux
Can protect entire systems, or just files/folders
Can restore to different hardware, or to the original system
