Organizations have traditionally invested in disaster recovery (DR) protection only for their most critical business applications and services, due to the high cost and complexity of owning, setting up, maintaining, and operating DR solutions. But two key trends are changing this approach. First, with the current pandemic accelerating the pace of digital transformation, many more applications and services have become critical to the core business, with customer, employee, and partner interactions now online. And even post-pandemic, much of this shift is here to stay. Second, the emergence of easy-to-use, cost-effective DR as a service (DRaaS) solutions have dramatically simplified an organization’s ability to ensure resiliency.

In response, VMware has recently launched VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery – a new DRaaS solution for protecting vSphere environments. Built for infrastructure professionals responsible for IT resiliency, it uses VMware Cloud on AWS and native cloud services to provides highly reliable, cost effective, easy-to-use disaster recovery with low recovery times. This session will provide an overview, demo, and technical insights into how the solution works.
