Synopsis
Virtualization has existed for decades, and yet the rate of adoption in recent years has skyrocketed along with the innovative ways that virtualization can be utilized. The Essentials Series: Virtualization and Disaster Recovery discusses the benefit of virtualization in providing for business continuity though data replication and protection, allowing a more cost-effective solution for high availability and disaster recovery.
Article 1: Data Protection in a Virtualized Environment
Learn the essential concepts of disaster recovery when teamed with virtualization solutions. This first article discusses the concept of virtualization, cost savings of using a mirrored set of servers (especially a mirrored site), and benefits to WAN replication and virtualization.
Article 2: Leveraging Virtualization for High Availability and Business Continuity
The second article of the series explores replication-based technologies: how they relate to high availability and server consolidation (whether in a physical-to-virtual scenario or a virtual-to-virtual scenario) while providing immediate recovery solutions and long-term data protection and archiving. You will also learn how virtualization can assist in keeping your company running within regulatory compliance.
Article 3: Replication and Recovery Management Solutions
The final article of the series takes a step outside the technology to look at pricing models for both a purchased and rented virtualization solution. Per-Instance or Per-CPU licensing for virtualization will be discussed. You will learn how to calculate and maximize your ROI based on different needs and concerns in order to find a solution that will be an excellent fit for your company.
