SUPPORTING YOUR HYBRID CLOUD JOURNEY
As a Microsoft Gold Partner for Cloud Platform, we can provide a Proof of Concept (PoC) for Azure Site Recovery which illustrates how applications, workloads and data can remain accessible during periods of downtime.
We demonstrate how to automate replication, invoke disaster recovery (DR) and monitor protected instances - before recovering to normal working conditions in an orderly manner using the Azure portal and runbooks.
While we can explain the benefits of having a Disaster Recovery as a Service solution, our engagement also shows how your organisation can continue functioning during, and after, an adverse event - without the cost and ongoing management that is normally associated with non-cloud DR solutions.
Operational Monthly Costs
DR is charged to the business as an ongoing OPEX cost
Failover and Failback
ASR allows you to orchestrate the failover and failback of virtual and physical machines
First Month Free
The first month of any server being protected does not incur any charge, this is a huge enabler for POCs
Regularly Test Scenarios
Test continuity plans or run dev-test copies of production workloads without impacting users; test new versions of apps with copies of live data, then seamlessly put into production
Low RPO and RTO
Achieve low recovery point objective (RPO) and recovery time objective (RTO) targets of minutes for every major system in your organisation, simply and cost effectively
UK Data Centres
Stay in line with Data Sovereignty requirements and guarantee your data stays in the UK; Site Recovery is ISO 27001:2013, 27018, HIPAA, DPA certified, and is in the process of SOC2 and FedRAMP JAB assessments
Export Runbooks
Azure allows you to export your recovery plan process and detailed output in order to validate any auditing processes
Per Server Cost
DR is charged per server so that costs can go up and down on a monthly basis as the organisation adds or removes servers to be protected
Easy to Use Management Tool
The whole process is managed from the cloud in the now familiar Azure Resource Manager portal with easy to use getting started wizards
Server Protection
Most organisations will have a mix of virtual and physical servers - ASR has the ability to protect physical servers as well as virtual environments, so that the entire estate can be protected with one tool
Supports Hyper-V and VMware
Today most of the virtual infrastructures found in the wild are based around the industry standard VMware vSphere hypervisor; this is fully supported by ASR
Runbooks and Azure Automation
This can be as simple as virtual machine power-up and power-down, but can also inject runbooks from Azure Automation - allowing you to do virtually anything inside of Azure during a failover or failback
VSS Compliant
ASR gives you the ability to failover to snapshots that were taken in compliance with VSS so that you can guarantee your data is consistent after a failover
Unlimited Testing
Test failovers allow you to recreate your environment in an isolated bubble network without affecting the live servers, also allowing replication to DR to continue in the background
Array Agnostic
There is no dependency on specific storage manufacturers or protocols, so data can be replicated from any source including local disks
