Cloud-based Diaster Recovery

The characteristics of cloud computing make Disaster Recovery to the cloud an ideal use case. In this session, Jeffrey will share his experiences with designing and implementing a Cloud-based Disaster Recovery solution. He will explain in detail what considerations should be taken into account and what a typical approach for a DR to the cloud implementation could or should look like.

10. Public Cloud Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) Three major use cases DATA CENTER EXTENSION Seamless portability and networking with unified management and support DATA CENTER REPLACEMENT Fast, secure infrastructure shift from on-premises to the cloud DISASTER RECOVERY Simple, low cost failover and recovery, to & from the cloud
11. Cloud-based Disaster Recovery Attractiveness Cloud-based DR solutions offer: More agility Faster implementation No need for in-house DR infrastructure or upfront costs Reduction in internal resources to support DR plan Cloud-based DR allows companies to eliminate: Secondary sites (DR data centers) Servers Storage Rely on off-site backup tapes for DR
