VMware SRM: Rethink Traditional Disaster Recovery

2

DR:Why Bother?

According to an IBM white paper: Of businesses that experience a major loss of data

• 43% Never reopen

• 51% Fail within 2 years

• 6% Fail long term

3

DR: Challenges

Cost

• Duplication is costly

• Outdated hardware can be impossible to acquire

Testing

• Complex and fraught with error

Agility

• Updating plans is a “Forth Road Bridge” task

4

DR: Key elements

Data Replication

Hardware Replication

People Replication

5

BC: Avoiding Disaster

Planned migration of a datacenter

• Flood, Power, Weather

Undoing a migration when normality returns

• Planned migration and failback

6

DR in a Virtual Environment

Hardware independence

• No need for identical setup

Self contained Virtual Machine

• Machines are replicated in their entirity

Easily updated for new services

• Simply replicate the VM to recovery site.

7

vSphere Replication

Host level replication

• Per VM

• RPO as low as 15 Minutes

• Included with most versions

8

Site Recovery Manager

Electronic Run Book

• Easily updated

• Granular recovery plans

Planned Failover

• Disaster avoidance

Failback

• Reversing the failover plan

Non disruptive testing

• Plans are tested with documentation for audit

Integration with Storage Replication

• Low RPO

Analyst Viewpoint

 “Over the last five years, the number of alerts annually generated by event and performance systems has increased, on average, by 300% […] The next five years will see a significant acceleration in that growth rate due to the dynamic nature of new IT infrastructure”

“The spread of virtualization and cloud computing has added a new volatility and dynamism to the IT stack. Old-style event correlation and root cause analysis technologies based on a structured, static understanding of topology relationships between IT infrastructure components fail to keep up with the new dynamics.”

“IT operations teams that […] effectively adopt emerging IT operations analytics technologies can achieve at least a 10% reduction in IT service outage minutes.”

“Early Stage IT Operations Analytics Could Reduce IT Service Outage Minutes” by Debra Curtis, Will Cappelli and Jonah Kowall published March 30, 2012.
