VMware vCloud(R) Hybrid Service(TM) – Disaster Recovery, Available Now, Seamlessly Extends Disaster Recovery to the Public CloudPALO ALTO, CA – Apr 15, 2014 — /BackupReview.info/ — VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW), the global leader in virtualization and cloud infrastructure, today announced VMware vCloud® Hybrid Service™ – Disaster Recovery, a new cloud-based disaster recovery (DR) service that provides a continuously available recovery site for VMware virtualized data centers. VMware vCloud Hybrid Service – Disaster Recovery is simple to set up, can be self-managed, and is a fraction of the cost and complexity of traditional DR solutions. The service is available immediately in all five vCloud Hybrid Service data centers in the U.S. and U.K. Built on vSphere®, VMware vCloud Hybrid Service – Disaster Recovery continuously replicates virtual machines to a virtual data center within vCloud Hybrid Service, with a recovery point objective (RPO) of up to 15 minutes, from just $835 a month including 1TB of storage and standby cloud capacity. The low cost and simplicity of the service means customers can avoid the burden of owning tertiary data centers for DR, and can now continuously protect applications that were previously vulnerable because it was too expensive and complicated to include them in a DR plan. “Everyone wants enterprise-class disaster recovery, but without the complexity and cost of traditional DR,” said Jerry Sanchez, vice president of Hosting Operations, Planview. “We know how to administer vSphere®, so the simplicity and familiarity of administering vCloud® Hybrid Service™ – Disaster Recovery is just as easy, making this service a natural fit for us. Typically, DR services require expensive professional services to install and maintain. With the VMware solution, the data and applications are simply mirrored in vCloud® Hybrid Service™, ready to go whenever trouble strikes, and with the benefits of a cloud-based economic model.” A New Approach to Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery “We continue to aggressively execute our hybrid cloud vision, delivering capabilities like DR that businesses can use to extend and protect their existing IT investment to the cloud,” said Bill Fathers, senior vice president and general manager, Hybrid Cloud Services Business Unit, VMware. “VMware continues to distinguish itself from other cloud providers by making disaster recovery simple and cost-effective, allowing our customers to use a hybrid cloud approach to deliver business value, without wrestling with operational complexity and incompatibility inherent to other public clouds.” VMware vCloud Hybrid Service – Disaster Recovery is a replication and hosting service ideal for businesses with limited or no DR solution in place today, or customers looking to replace a traditional offering with a service provider or one that is managed in-house. VMware vCloud Hybrid Service – Disaster Recovery provides simple and secure asynchronous replication and failover for vSphere virtual environments.
Opportunities for Partners “The demand for DR is high because customers are looking for faster, simpler and cheaper options,” said Jason Nash, chief technology officer, Varrow. “With vCloud® Hybrid Service™ – Disaster Recovery, customers no longer have the burden of hardware and software upkeep, and have access to a simple and affordable DRaaS solution, while benefiting from trusted technology and top-class support. A cloud-based DR solution from VMware will be an easy sell for our vSphere® customers looking to deploy a disaster recovery plan within their organization.” Additional Resources
