This document summarizes Azure Site Recovery and Azure Migrate tools for disaster recovery, migrations, and workload assessments. It discusses the drivers pushing customers to migrate to Azure, including reducing costs, freeing datacenter space, and improving cloud ROI. It then summarizes the key Azure tools for each stage of migration including assessment (Azure Migrate), replication (Azure Site Recovery), and data migration. Customers can assess over 5000 Hyper-V or 10000 VMware VMs and replicate workloads between on-premises and Azure with these tools. The presentation concludes with demonstrations of Azure Site Recovery functionality for disaster recovery between Hyper-V and Azure and a migration assessment using Azure Migrate.

3. What’s driving customers to migrate to
Azure or BC/DR

4. Choice of tools for every stage and
every requirement
Goal is successful Azure migration & Disaster recovery: Pick the right tool for the job
Data Migration Assistant (DMA)
Azure Migrate
SQL Server Migration Assistant (SSMA)
Azure Security & Management
(e.g., Blueprint, Security Center,
Backup, Monitor, Azure Policy )Azure Database Migration Service
Azure Site Recovery (ASR)
Azure Data Box
Azure Cost Management

5. Summarizing cloud migration strategies
Redeploy as-is to cloud
• Reduce Capex
• Free up datacenter space
• Quick cloud ROI
IaaS
Minimally alter to take better
advantage of cloud
• Faster, shorter, updates
• Code portability
• Greater cloud efficiency
(resources, speed, cost)
Containers
PaaS
Materially alter/decompose
application to services
• App scale and agility
• Easier adoption of new cloud
capabilities
• Mix technology stacks
PaaS
Serverless
Microservices
New code written with cloud
native approach
• Accelerate innovation
• Build apps faster
• Reduce operational cost

6. Business Continuity Challenges
Cost Monitoring
Recovery
Protecting
Many
Workloads
Need to reduce the costs
related to downtime
Disaster recovery solutions
with synchronous
replication are expensive
Some workloads that
could benefit from
protection go
unprotected due to
costs and complexity
Constant monitoring
of services can be
challenging
Manual recovery of the
many virtual machines that
compose services can be
complex and time-
consuming - procedures
need to be documented
and tested

7. Orchestrate the recovery of your apps for
simplified disaster recovery
Improve Recovery-Time-Objectives (RTO)
and Recovery-Point-Objectives (RPO) for
both planned and unplanned outages
Achieve zero impact disaster recovery drills
Minimize app errors and data loss with
application consistent recovery points
Replication for heterogeneous

17. MICROSOFT AZURE SITE RECOVERY
Consistent Experience
Centralized view of replication & recovery
between on-premises locations, & between
on-premises & Microsoft Azure.
Streamlined Configuration
Only 1 additional installation step –
installation of Site Recovery agent on Hyper-
V Hosts
Quickly set up protection of on-premises
clouds, with Microsoft Azure as a target.
Support for Encryption of Data at Rest, along
with flexible replication frequencies,
additional recovery points & VSS-aware
application consistent checkpoints.
Network Mapping
Enables the mapping of on-premises VM
Networks into pre-created Microsoft Azure
Virtual Networks
Zero application data loss during migration

Azure, in the event of a site outage at the primary
datacenter.
Support for Scripts and Manual Actions that
require some form of human intervention during
the execution of the Recovery Plan.
Shutdown of VMs upon execution is in reverse
order of recovery to ensure zero data loss.
Flexible Failover & Failback Options
Support for Test, Unplanned & Planned Failover

19. BUSINESS CONTINUITY

20. Demo #1
AZURE SITE RECOVERY
• ASR INFRASTRUCTURE
• HYPER-V TO AZURE
• AZURE TO AZURE

21. ARCHITECTURE AZURE-TO-AZURE
Replication process:
1. The Site Recovery Mobility service extension is
automatically installed on the VM.
2. The extension registers the VM with Site
Recovery.
3. Continuous replication begins for the VM. Disk
writes are immediately transferred to the
cache storage account in the source location.
4. Site Recovery processes the data in the cache,
and sends it to the target storage account, or
to the replica managed disks.
5. After the data is processed, crash-consistent
recovery points are generated every five
minutes. App-consistent recovery points are
generated according to the setting specified
in the replication policy.

22. ARCHITECTURE AZURE-TO-AZURE
Background:
This environment will consist of two Virtual Networks
deployed to your Primary and Secondary site with
an AD Domain, IIS Web Servers and Microsoft SQL
Servers that you will configure into a SQL Always On
Availability Group
Goal using Azure BC DR:
Your goal for this environment is to have the ability to
have a one-click failover process using Azure Site
Recovery in either direction. The users will have one
URL that they will use to connect to your application
regardless of where the application is running.

23. What does it do?
o Easily discovery of on-premises VMs
o Direct migration & test migrations
o Visualize dependencies to create move groups
o Insightful workload assessments:
o Azure Suitable analysis “editable”
o Right-sized Azure resources bases on utilization history
o Estimated monthly run cost in Azure
o Customize cost assessment – offers, workload uptime, Vm serie
o Support for VMWare “Agentless” NEW Hyper-V
o No Cost

28. Summary
The ASR solution is not only one part of the DR/BC suite
Classifying workloads based on RTO/RPO needs
Azure Migrate bringing it all together in one portal from start to end
Defining a process around Disaster Recovery
Running DR drills at a regular cadence for compliance purposes
Forecasts, analyzes and mitigates specific threat vectors for targeted divisions in the organization
Concerns about security issues, like malware, ransomware, and intrusion, are increasing. These security issues
can be costly, in terms of both money and data & outage = Business continuity
