• Migrate a datacenter to Microsoft Azure
• Leverage Azure Site Recovery for minimum downtime
• Let’s do it all automatically
• For you
• Hold my beer…or so ;-)
• All scripts used are publicly available … wait till the end of session

6. Backup and Disaster Recovery
• StorSimple
• Low cost Cloud Storage Tier
• Daily Backups to the Cloud
• Azure Site Recovery
• Replicate Virtual (Physical) Machines to Azure
• Use as DR or test scenarios
• Or use it for migration
• Azure Backup
• Replace Tape with Cloud
• Backup Azure VMs
• Single Item Restore available
