Protecting Virtual Servers
You’ve made the move towards virtualising the data center. Whether it’s for server consolidation, faster provisioning, improved business continuity, or a mix of these goals – you’re in good company. In fact, industry analysts estimate that over 50% of organisations are using server virtualisation for some portion of their operations.
But how are you protecting these virtual servers and their data?
Most virtualisation packages includes some form of high availability add-on that allows virtual machines (VMs) to move between physical resources. But just like in a physical server environment, HA is only one portion of a data protection strategy. You still need a solution to cost-effectively recover from data loss, corruption, and full site outages – not to mention satisfy regulatory compliance requirements.
To meet these needs without squandering your entire IT budget, you need a backup & recovery solution that uses cost-optimised disk (e.g. a de-duplication product) and tape for archiving and long term disaster recovery. But as you have probably already realised, backup and recovery of virtual servers is different than with physical servers.
Quantum can help. Working with industry leading backup applications and server virtualisation vendors, Quantum has solutions that easily integrate into your virtual data center and cost-effectively protect your data both on and offsite.
