“PHD Virtual Backup and ReliableDR
are like peanut butter and chocolate!”
Hello everyone,Thank you for joining me for our July Partner Update. My name is <intro and role>. As always, we want to be sure that you are fully equipped to bring value to your customers and partners by selling PHD Virtual products, and this particular webcast will dive pretty deeply into new product functionality and messaging that we hope makes it very clear that we are positioning ourselves to be the premier vendor for protecting and recovering your virtual environment.So let’s take a look at our agenda for today…
While today’s agenda is heavily based on the new release of our ReliableDR product for vSphere, you’ll see that this release marks an important milestone for PHD Virtual Backup as well. We acquired ReliableDR from a company by the name of Virtual Sharp just a few months ago. And already with the release of ReliableDR 3.2, we will have brand new integration with PHD Virtual Backup to help solidify both products as a single, premier solution for backup and disaster recovery of your Vmware environment.First, I’ll walk everyone through the story around this new position and our new bundled offering called the Recovery Management Suite.Then I’ll cover the new functionality added to ReliableDR 3.2.And as a bonus we’ll take a sneak peek at PHD Virtual Backup 6.5, since that is going to be released with ReliableDR 3.2 and is a crucial component of the integration between the prodcuts.
When implementing plans to stave off these negative effects, it is important to approach recovery in a holistic fashion that spans the entire continuum from granular file and application data, to full virtual machines, all the way up to multi-tiered applications and full sites that have many complex dependencies.However, our customers tell us that there are specific challenges that make successful data protection and recovery across this continuum difficult to achieve
Lets explore some of these challenges and I’ll describe how PHD Virtual minimizes them:[click]If a critical application running on VMware went down, how do you know you can get it up and running again – especially when most companies test recoveryso infrequently? PHD fully automates application and site recovery verification which enables you to test as frequently as you want – and in a way that is non-disruptive to normal business operations[click]Its not just about getting back up and running – its really about recovery within SLAs (RTO/RPO limits). PHD immediately detects and alerts you of any SLA deviations – providing continuous assurance that your RPOs and RTOs are achievable[click]Traditional manual approaches to recovery verification require too many IT personnel who already have full plates – another reason why testing is done infrequently. PHD automates these these complex tasks[click]In some industries auditors demand proof that DR plans will achieve required recovery point and recovery time objectives – PHD delivers complete compliance reporting[click]Most companies use several products from multiple vendors that don’t work well together or require expensive services to integrate them. PHD offers a complete unified Recovery Management solution for Data Protection and Disaster Recovery.[click]Much too often, organizations deal with DR when they are in the midst of an outage or disaster – PHD enables companies to be far more proactive and prepared – as a result, risk is reduced[click]Finally, According to Gartner – each DR test on average costs between $30-$40k. PHD enables companies to dramatically cut those costs through extensive automation and reporting.
The Recovery Management Suite is comprised of 3 products. PHD Virtual Backup for VMware, the optionalCloudHook module, and PHD ReliableDR.Backup provides advanced data protection powered by our unique virtual backup appliance architecture. It can perform both backup and VM replication.While the full suite is focused on Vmware only, PHD Virtual Backup does support Citrix today and soon will support Hyper-v.With CloudHook… customers retain the on-site control and recovery of local backups with the added assurance of off-site cloud storage options for backup ReliableDR automates DR failover, failback, and application recovery testing. Therefore, the Recovery Management Suite is a Unified data protection and disaster recovery solution that dramatically reduces the cost of data, application, business service and site-wide recovery within SLAs.
[do NOT click yet]ReliableDR is integrated with the replication capabilities of PHD Virtual Backup and Replication.[click]PHD Backup can replicate VMs from the backup data stored at the production environment. This limits the impact to your production storage by using a single snapshot for both the backup and replication processes. It is completely storage agnostic. And because you can have multiple VBAs at both the primary and secondary sites, this option delivers greater scalability, bandwidth efficiency, and security of data in transit needed for medium to large environments.----------------------------------------[click, click]The purpose is to limit the number of snapshots on your production environment. We only need one for both backup and replication.Another great benefit of replicating from backups is that because we break up the process into two steps, the production snapshot is actually open for less time. Again, focusing on impacting production as little as possible.And, as usual, you have ReliableDR sitting at your DR site for all of the failover and testing automation of those PHD replicas. So here are the trade-offs with PHD replication…let’s start with the benefits…It is still very inexpensive with the Recovery Management Suite bundle we’ll be launchingIt is also storage agnosticBy having VBAs at both ends, you get WAN efficiency by compressing the data at the source, and the target side VBA can write very fast to the DR storage (optimizing both sides of the pipe)You can have many VBAs on each side to scale up to meet the needs of large environmentsYou can secure the data in transit because we can encrypt itAnd, finally, you get built in local and offsite backup and granular recoveryLots of good benefits there for larger environments that need MORE THAN basic functionalityThe limitations are that…All snapshot based solutions have a hard time delivering continuous or very near-continuous replication, especially for large highly transactional VMs. You typically get RPOs of 30 minutes to an hour for average workloads. Ultimately, you have to consider the impact to production by taking snaps all day long as well. It’s not just about how fast we can process the data, but how your production applications perform during the process.Failback is not as seamless as it is with ReliableDR replication (yet! at least…we’ll obviously be fixing that in a later release). You’ll need to leverage the PHD software to take care of moving the data back to production, but you still can leverage ReliableDR to automate the application recovery steps for failback. So that’s still good.So where this really fits best is with anyone that doesn’t have the budget for storage replication, but does have a need for more bandwidth efficiency and scalability. So we’re talking about the M-side of SMB and mid-market and smaller enterprises with more strict compliance requirements.

[click]Finally, ReliableDR is completely integrated with most popular storage vendors to automate failover, failback and verification of virtual machines replicated at the storage layer. This is critical for medium to large enterprises that require highly scalable, near-continuous replication.It is important to note that customers are not locked in to using just one replication option with the Recovery Management Suite. We support the use of all three options simultaneously within an environment to handle multiple tiers of storage and applications.As a result, PHD is changing the game when it comes to recovery by significantly reducing recovery risk, cost, and complexity.
Because budgetary, compliance, and scalability requirements will vary, the Recovery Management Suite is able to integrate with various replication solutions that meet different needs.[click]In any situation, you can leverage PHD Virtual Backup’s Virtual Backup Appliance to protect data locally at your production site, providing you with advanced deduplication, long-term retention and granular recovery of data and full virtual machines. PHD Backup also provides easy to use off-site data protection to ensure you have a copy of your backups in another location, and…[click]with the CloudHook module, that copy can be sent to several different cloud storage providers.[click]ReliableDR will be installed at your DR site, performing the automation for failover, failback and recovery verification. [click]ReliableDR has its own built-in replication. It simply uses Vmware snapshots and change block tracking to pull changed data to your DR site. As a result, it is completely storage agnostic and is a great fit for small environments, cloud providers, and datacenter migration projects.
