Data replication in supported cloud environments

To offer scalable, cost-effective disaster recovery (DR) options for your business, Veritas provides the following technologies in tandem with cloud services:

  • Flexible Storage Sharing (FSS) and Volume Replicator (VVR) for Linux environments

    Using FSS, a technology that enables seamless cluster-wide sharing of local storage over the network, you can form clusters across zones within a region. Using VVR, you can replicate data across zones and regions for both standalone and clustered systems.

  • VVR for Windows environments

    You can replicate data across zones and across regions.

Note:

In these topics about replication, "zone" is used as a common term to refer to an Availability Zone (AZ) in AWS, a VNet or a user-defined site in Azure, or a zone in Google cloud.

With the help of these technologies, you can:

  • Leverage the cloud as a DR site.

  • Replicate application data from your on-premises data center to the cloud or within the cloud.

  • Avoid the infrastructural costs that are needed to maintain a second physical site.

Data is always available, even if a failure occurs in a node, or a storage device, or a zone.
