FEATURE : DISASTER RECOVERY AND BUSINESS CONTINUITY
Enterprise IT must be able to deploy flexible and costeffective unstructured data replication and ongoing data lifecycle management policies to address the modern scale of data and increased Disaster Recovery requirements .
What gaps do enterprises have with traditional / typical DR ?
Organizations need affordable data protection for non-critical data . As an example , most organizations replicate all their storage to another site so they can recover from a disaster .
This approach is called Network Attached Storage ( NAS ) mirroring and it is expensive because it requires identical infrastructure for each storage at both sites and a full copy of all the data .
With ongoing data growth , many organizations are silently choosing not to replicate storage that contains less critical data – a dangerous strategy that creates a gap in the event of a disaster .
