Virtual Datacenters

Virtual Datacenter Components •  CPU •  RAM •  STORAGE (DISK) •  NETWORK

Bluelock Virtual Datacenter (4 Series for DR - RaaS)

Virtual Datacenters for DR •  only

during replication •  During testing or a disaster

event : , network capacity, and are added dynamically from the cloud


LET’S DIVE DEEPER


Virtualization refresh •  Hardware virtualization or

platform virtualization refers to the creation of a virtual machine that acts like a real computer with an operating system.

•  Virtualization creates the ability to take physical servers and condense them to run multiple instances of servers on one physical server.

DATA MIGRATION AND SEEDING


VPG 2

Incremental Sync

Full Sync of VPG 1

VPG 3

Network

Incremental Sync


Optimizing replication (Data compression)

Plenty of bandwidth (initially)

Initial replication – raw feed

RAW replication feed overwhelmed network until

compression turned on


RPO Fluctuation

Nightly maintenance degrades RPO and Recovery Point options (due to burst of ephemeral data)

Initial seeding of new VMs,

creates bursts


Optimizing replication (Ephemeral data)

Plenty of bandwidth (initially)

Nightly maintenance degrades RPO and Recovery Point options (due to burst of ephemeral data)


Optimizing the solution Exclude swap and temp disks from

replication to reduce maintenance burst

Private, Paygo, Flexible replication circuit eliminates

paying for in/out Internet bandwidth and only for high

bandwidth when needed

Burstable bandwith makes adding/seeding VMs to

protection simple without impacting RTO


Preset to Exclude Swap and Temp Disks


MAKE YOUR NEXT MOVE


Taking the Next Step

Where you are now

•  DR isn’t a priority •  DR is too expensive •  Connecting to the cloud is

complex •  Cloud is too risky

•  Not in our skill set to plan

and manage DR

Your Next Step

•  Start the conversation •  Get a quote for one app •  Try it

•  For DR, evaluate if this is true anymore, or old thinking.

•  If you see the value, a cloud service provider can get you there.
