Key Benefits of Site Recovery Manager
Accelerate Recovery with Automated Processes
Traditional disaster recovery solutions leave many organizations unable to meet recovery time and recovery point objectives. The slow and often manual recovery processes common in traditional disaster recovery solutions are prone to errors and result in frequent failures. VMware Site Recovery Manager automates the recovery process to ensure that it is executed rapidly and accurately.
Ensure Reliable Recovery with Thorough Automation and Easier Testing
Testing disaster recovery plans and ensuring that they are executed correctly are critical to making recovery reliable. However, testing is difficult with traditional solutions due to the high cost, complexity and disruption associated with tests. Another challenge is ensuring that staff are trained and prepared to successfully execute the complex process of recovery.
Site Recovery Manager helps you overcome these obstacles by enabling realistic, frequent tests of recovery plans and eliminating common causes of failures during recovery. It provides built-in capabilities for executing realistic, non-disruptive tests without the cost and complexity of traditional disaster recovery testing. Because the recovery process is automated, you can also ensure that the recovery plan will be carried out correctly in both testing and failover scenarios. Site Recovery Manager also leverages VMware Infrastructure to provide hardware-independent recovery to ensure successful recovery even when recovery hardware is not identical to production hardware.
Take Control of Your Disaster Recovery Plans
Until now, keeping recovery plans and the runbooks that documented them accurate and up-to-date has been practically impossible due to the complexity of plans and the dynamic environment in today's datacenters. Adding to that challenge, traditional solutions do not offer a central point of management for recovery plans and make it difficult to integrate the different tools and components of disaster recovery solutions.
VMware Site Recovery Manager simplifies and centralizes the creation and ongoing management of disaster recovery plans. Site Recovery Manager turns traditional oversized disaster recovery runbooks into automated plans that are easily to manage, store and document. Additionally, Site Recovery Manager is tightly integrated with VMware Infrastructure 3, so you can create, manage and update recovery plans from the same place that you manage your virtual infrastructure.
