Every IT department wants a disaster recovery site – but many have difficulty allocating the thousands – or even tens of thousands – of dollars to support a hosted, collocated or cloud compute environment that is dormant most of the time. In other cases, organizations have a disaster recovery plan for their critical data and applications, but no plan for secondary or tertiary applications. This educational webinar shows how you can use Veeam and TwinStrata to obtain a viable disaster recovery plan that’s affordable for everyone.

26. Traditional DR/BC Reality
26
Exorbitant costs to support
•
•
•
Hosted solution - or Colocation solution - or Remote office
Off-site location in
case of disaster
Double the server
and compute
infrastructure
Significant administration
and tech refreshes for
underutilized DR hardware
RESULT: Cost & Maintenance Headache

27. Today’s “Non-Traditional” Alternatives
Hosted DR
 Lease hot-standby or warmstandby infrastructure
• Servers and storage
• Networks, firewalls, IP
addresses
 Pay dedicated per month
costs
• ~$5K-$8K/mo. to recover 50
VMs
27
Compute-based DR
 On-demand, but incompatible
environments
• VMware local
• Unknown hypervisor in cloud,
no admin access
 Complex, risky orchestration
• Rely on VM conversion tools
• Or third party migration tools
