Data Growth and IT Complexity are Soaring
Data explosion
The number of
apps to manage
is
rapidly
increasing
IT complexity
By 2020, more than a trillion applications will be exchanging 58 zettabytes of digital data over 100
billion devices.*

Recovery – The Challenge
Forrester and DRJ asked 200 readers:
Were you able to recover from your most recent
disruption in less than one hour?
In 2007, 30% responded yes
In 2010, 13% responded yes
In 2013, 2% responded yes

The State of Disaster Recovery Today
The recovery challenge…
38% of companies back up mission-critical applications/data to tape, and manually transport them off-site (Forrester/DRJ)
The average time to recover after a disaster was 18.5 hours, up from 17 hours in 2007 (Forrester/DRJ)
Companies lose an average of $84,000 every hour of downtime (IDC)
Yearly cost of downtime at almost one-third of companies is estimated at > $3.9MM (Aberdeen)
Key Challenges
Don’t consistently back up/replicate data off-site
No infrastructure to recover to or test with
Lack of skills & available personnel to do complex recoveries
No real-world experience recovering complex applications
Growing volume of data with new complexity from virtualization
Less than half of firms have a disaster
recovery plan

The Cloud, Overview and Defining Terms
13th Annual Continuity Insights Management Conference: Next Generation Resilience

DR - Consider The Cloud
• Blended systems with local backup plus cloud becoming common• Take advantage of cloud economies and flexibilityBut• Add another layer of management
• Service provider risks• SLAs• Never put all eggs in one basket
• CAPEX – OPEX benefits• Significant savings on DR• Facilitates backup of remote sites
• WAN Latency may be acceptable for secondary storage• When cloud is an alternative – Compare existing storage costs to cloud

Definitions – RTO, RPO, RTA, CRP• RTO – Recovery Time Objective
• How quickly should critical services be restored
• RPO – Recovery Point Objective• What point should data be available
• RTA – Recovery Time Actual• The tested time it takes to restore an application
• CRP – Certified Recovery Point• Tested and certified application recovery points

System Loss/Failure

RPO (Recovery Point
Objective) – Time Since Last

RTO (Recovery Time

Hybrid Cloud DR Strategy
• Data kept on premise with local appliance for fast local recovery
• Data replicated off premise to protect against catastrophic failures
• Leverage replicated data to spin up VM’s instantly in the cloud to:
Meet recovery objectives
Minimize outage and unplanned down time
Achieve the LOWEST possible TCO

Replication

Disaster Recovery as a Service “DRaaS”
What:
• Allows businesses to keep their primary production servers, storage and applications local, while incorporating the cloud for disaster recovery and business continuity in a secure infrastructure
When:
• If losing critical data will affect your business
• Compliance requirements: HIPAA, PCI, FINRA & Sarbanes-Oxley
Why:
• Ability to fail applications over to the cloud to ensure seamless end-user availability in the event of a failure
• Improved security
• Lower operation expenditures
Benefits of DRaaS
14
Better functionality for
less cost
• Most of the time, you essentially only pay for storage resources, turning on VMs only in the event of a disaster invocation or a test
• Little to no upfront investment is required
Easier, more frequent, and less expensive testing
• Testing can be automated and non-disruptive. DRaaScontracts usually include testing services and failover assistance
Easy, more flexible, enables
chargeback
• Gives you the ability to adapt to changing IT environment and business needs
• Deployments are measured in weeks, not months to years
Pay-as-you-go pricing
• Pay per protected server operationalizes DR spending, making it easy to add additional protected servers or storage, avoids burst capex and enables chargeback
Disaster Recovery as a Service “DRaaS”
Who is a Good Fit?
Companies that:
• Have mission critical data
• Have regulatory practices relative to the retention of data
• Are sensitive to downtime (Operational Recovery)
• Are looking for more efficient ways to protect their data and reduce operating procedures/expenditures
• Are migrating where downtime/data loss is a concern

Real-Time Reporting
• Report on recovery readiness in terms of application SLAs
• Relate applications to business processes
• Frequent exercise, review tiers and priorities

Hybrid Cloud Provides 3 Levels of RTO/ RPO
25
Hot cloud site (RaaS): Recovery cloud is running replica VMs to production site using
real-time replication.
Recovery time objective (RTO) : 0-2 hours
Recovery point objective (RPO): 0-24 hours
Warm cloud site (DRaaS): Recovery cloud contains offline copies of virtual machines
that can be spun up during disasters or tests.
RTO: 2-6 hours
RPO: 0-24 hours
Cold cloud site (Cloud Backup & Archive): Recovery cloud contains backups of
production systems that must be first rehydrated and turned into VMs before recovery
can occur.
RTO: 4-24 hours
RPO: 24-48 hours
