Introduction to Local and Remote Protection

The decision to choose the best technology for data security, whether local or remote, is a big challenge. The goal is to quickly recover data with the lowest amount of data lost using a simple and cost-effective method. How can we handle this challenge?

Disaster Recovery:

EMC RecoverPoint / SE is a point-in-time recovery and data protection (CDP) recovery solution for providing local and remote-replication (CRR) data protection and synchronization to provide remote data protection. RecoverPoint / SE CDP and CRR can be used individually or together so that it can protect local and remote concurrent (CLR) data for a large amount of data at any distance.

EMC RecoverPoint / SE is available in Total Efficiency Pack, Protection Pack, Local Protection Suite and Remote Protection Suite for EMC VNX series arrays. In VNX storage environments, RecoverPoint / SE provides a lot more than just creating an integrated replication solution for SAN LUNs and Provisioning (CRRs). RecoverPoint / SE for local and remote SAN replication can also be used in integrated EMC CLARiiON and Celerra arrays.

RecoverPoint allows replication of applications data to your backup site synchronously and asynchronously with recovery point objectives (RPOs) goals; you need to balance the RPO and the recovery time objective (RTO), which can This will ensure that the data that is duplicated locally or remotely is stored and that, in accordance with the customer's policy, to achieve the best performance and distance between the production and backup sites, it can interact between synchronous replication and asynchronous modes Features such as bandwidth reduction, data replication, and data compression.

End-to-End data protection:

RecoverPoint / SE protects companies from losing data due to problems such as server failure, data problems, software errors, viruses and other end-user errors, as well as natural disasters that may lead to interruptions in performance. prevents. Utilizing RecoverPoint / SE, organizations will save significant savings as complex and inefficient data protection schemes will be eliminated, making this a very easy way to manage.

Reduce bandwidth, replicate data and compress data:

RecoverPoint uses advanced and intelligent technologies to reduce bandwidth, replicate data, and data compression, resulting in savings of up to 90% of the WAN bandwidth used to replicate. These technologies enable you to provide the best level of security for existing bandwidths, in addition to reducing WAN costs significantly, especially at long distances.

Application Data Protection:

RecoverPoint / SE provides quick retrieval for application data. The data at the selected points is immediately available and can be quickly read or written by the host. Snapshot consolidation for retention periods is used with a set of dedicated storage devices that enables customers to be able to retrieve more data online for retrieval without having to spend on storage. Extra.

Read and write the available retrieval data without causing any interruptions in the replication process. In retrieval, it is possible to test the data at different times to determine the best point for retrieval. This functionality can also be used in back ups to be used for various data processing processes, including data migration, retrieval support, and the development and testing of applications.

In addition, RecoverPoint / SE can provide convenient recovery points for Microsoft applications such as Exchange Server and Microsoft SQL Server through the use of Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) and Virtual Data Interface (VDI) APIs. This feature greatly reduces the recovery time for Exchange and SQL Server and increases the likelihood of recovery for sensitive business applications. Finally, RecoverPoint / SE will combine with other EMC products, including Replication Manager, Data Protection Advisor, and NetWorker.

End-to-End protection for virtual server environments:

RecoverPoint / SE is a comprehensive and flexible data protection solution that can provide proper recovery for the EMC VNX, CLARiiON series and EMC Celerra integrated arrays in VMware virtualization infrastructure and Microsoft server Hyper-V environments. For VMware, RecoverPoint / SE combines with VMware vCenter and enables the user to view the protection status for virtual machines; it also combines with VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager to simplify and coordinate data protection, failover and failback. Which allows virtual machines to be retrieved quickly and without losing data.

VNX Remote Protection Collection:

This software protects data against local, definitive failures and events occurring in VNX storage systems. This software provides adequate protection for file and VNX blockers in the least time and at any point in time. Below are some of the benefits of this:

• It's easy to maintain business continuity: a solution that can support any host and application.

• Efficient Replication: Compression and deduplication reduce WAN bandwidth.

• Uninterrupted protection: Synchronous replication and bi-directional asynchronous continuity can be repeated, which can be immediately restored at a specific point in the application time.

EMC VNX Series:

Integrated storage with high performance, simplicity and outstanding performance for virtual applications has been optimized. With the VNX series , you will achieve a new level of performance, protection, adaptability and ease of management.

Integration:

The VNX series helps you to use a single platform for file and block data services. Centralized management facilitates monitoring work. Data Efforts Services can reduce your capacity needs by up to 50%.

Optimum:

Suitable for applications that combine with VMware and Hyper-V. The speed of SQL and Oracle workloads will be tripled and will run about 1,000 virtual handsets in less than 8 minutes.

Automatically:

Ensuring that active data is automatically stored in flash drives and less active data is categorized in higher- capacity drives. Full-automatic storage tiering (FAST) EMC VNX simultaneously maximizes performance. It brings costs down to the lowest.

High efficiency:

Due to multi-core EMC MCx and Flash optimization, transaction efficiency will increase by up to 4x with increasing bandwidth and reducing interruptions.

Protected:

Provides the highest levels of access for applications and data protection with continuous operations and retrieval at any time. Data-at-rest data encryption allows physical protection.
