A simple, cost-effective disaster-recovery solution for virtual environments is high on the agenda for IT organizations as they virtualize more business-critical applications with VMware. VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager provides centralized management of recovery plans, enables nondisruptive testing and automates site-failover processes. 

The FalconStor® Continuous Data Protector (CDP) solution can be deployed in conjunction with VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager. This unique implementation dramatically speeds both processes and reduces costs while ensuring achievement of recovery time objectives (RTO). 

Server virtualization presents some interesting implications for disaster recovery (DR), including cost reductions and increased recovery times. In this FAQ, business continuity expert Paul Kirvan discusses the various server virtualization approaches that are effective for DR and how they benefit failover and failback processes. 

This white paper highlights the rise of virtualization and discusses how it will effect backup, recovery, and related processes. We will also look at what applications have been virtualized and how the old backup and recovery tools may not be up to the challenge of supporting this new dynamic infrastructure. 

By working with Dell, the Peterson Sullivan IT group achieved its goals of creating a consolidated and scalable IT environment with strong backup and disaster recovery strategies. 

For many enterprises, the backup and recovery process has not kept pace with the sheer growth of data or the increased requirements for higher data protection. As a result, many storage organizations are redesigning their existing backup architecture.

Accounts payable remains a manual and often inefficient business process. Read this white paper for a discussion of best practices options and a solid approach to implementing solutions for automating and optimizing Accounts Payable in the SAP environment. 

Many organizations struggle to deal with the management challenges of complex IT environments, not only on backup performance and the achievement of Recovery Time Objectives in disaster recovery, but also on productivity, performance and profitability. 

Check out this FAQ podcast, to hear W. Curtis Preston, independent backup expert and executive editor, source and target deduplication, how these approaches differ, what that means from a disaster recovery perspective and more. 

All businesses have 3 non-negotiable requirements for backup & recovery: backup windows can't interrupt the ability to conduct business; when disaster strikes, recovery must be quick enough to ensure service continuity; its cost has to fit in budget. 

This paper will examine how to architect storage subsystems to provide efficient protection as part of the backup and recovery process. Read on to learn more.
