6. What Will Impact Your Technology Decisions
• What am I protecting?
• Application dependencies?
• One or multiple methods of recovery?
• How frequently do I need to backup and replicate?
• Sync vs. Async? Can I tolerate data loss?
• Might I have multiple SLA requirements, dependent on the event?
• What technology should I use?
• Cost and ease of use?
• Time to failover? Error prone? How do I test?

USE CASES
• Protection against Guest OS corruption
• Snapshot VM environments
• Self-Service File Level Restore
POINTS OF DIFFERENTIATION
• VM or vDisk granularity
• Low performance impact
• VM and application level consistency

9. Nutanix Asynchronous Disaster Recovery
• Delta changes
• Dedup on the wire
• Compression on the wire
• Flexible topologies
• Bandwidth schedules

10. Metro Availability Overview
Overview
ü Global File System Name Space stretched between
two clusters
ü Single VMware HA cluster acts as stretched data

OVERVIEW
• Synchronous replication at VM and Container
(group of VMs) level
• Real-time copies of data across two datacenters
• Centralized and intuitive management via
Nutanix Prism
BENEFITS
• Continuous availability of applications and data
• No data loss in case of site failure
• Non-disruptive migration of VMs between sites
• Interoperability with Async Replication

12. Key Business Benefits of Lower RPO
ENTERPRISE PROTECTION FOR MISSION-CRITICAL APPLICATIONS
• Minimize data loss in case of outage or disaster
• Granular control of restores at Application or VM level
LOW TCO FOR HIGH VALUE
• Comparable RPO to high-end storage arrays
• Outshines direct HCI competitors
EASE OF USE AND SIMPLICITY
• Centralized Prism Management with intuitive Failover and Test workflows
• No latency and distance restrictions

13. Light Weight Snapshots
INTRODUCTION OF NEW, LIGHT-WEIGHT SNAPSHOT (LWS) TECHNOLOGY
• Continuous Data Protection-like technology
• Uses ‘markers’ instead of full snapshots
• Completely Oplog based, LWS Store is located on SSD
CONTINUOUS REPLICATION TO REMOTE SYSTEM
• Data stream is from System memory, contains LWS markers
• Snapshots on remote system are synthetically created from LWS
(Hydration)
ON RESTORE, USER CAN SELECT ANY LWS UP TO AN HOUR AGO TO RESTORE FROM
• Default is to use the most recent completed LWS
