Storage Based Replication

Storage-based replication is crucial to ensure data availability and redundancy. It uses a SAN (Storage Area Network) to replicate data in real-time. This ensures that data is always available at multiple locations, minimising the risk of data loss due to failures.

Solution Highlights

Why Storage Based Replication Is
Your Top Choice

  • Real-Time Replication for Maximum Uptime

    With storage-based replication, your data is constantly mirrored in real-time, ensuring that even in the event of hardware failure, you're back up and running quickly.

  • Minimal Impact on Resources

    By operating at storage level, storage-based replication offloads processing and minimises the resource load on applications and hosts. Your system runs optimally without the risk of lag.

  • Greater Control & Flexibility

    Whether you're using on-premise storage, a hybrid cloud environment, or a fully cloud-based architecture, storage-based replication offers the flexibility to operate seamlessly across different environments.

  • Proactive Disaster Recovery

    Data replication provides an added layer of protection by ensuring your business can recover from disasters with minimal disruption. Whether it’s a localised failure or a natural disaster, storage-based replication ensures your data is safe.

  • Customisable Recovery Solutions

    Storage-based replication services are typically designed to allow for both point-in-time recovery and full-system recovery. Tailor backup and recovery processes to fit the specific needs of your organisation.

  • Long-Term Reliability

    Storage-based replication is known for its long-term reliability. It ensures that small and large business have peace of mind knowing their data is continuously replicated and accessible.

How to deploy Storage Based Replication

Identify Source and Target Systems

Determine the source and target storage systems that will be involved in the replication process.

Configure Replication Rules

Define the replication rules, including the frequency of replication, data transfer rates, and any filters or exclusions.

Establish Connectivity

Ensure that the source and target systems have the necessary network connectivity to communicate and transfer data.

Initiate Replication

Start the replication process, which may involve copying initial data and then continuously replicating changes.

Monitor and Manage

Monitor the replication process to ensure it is running smoothly and address any issues that may arise.

Real World Application

Disaster Recovery

Replicate data to a geographically distant data center to protect against local disasters like fires, floods, or power outages. It also protects against site-specific disasters, like security breaches or equipment failures.

High Availability

Create redundant copies of data to ensure continuous availability in case of hardware failures or network outages. Distribute read traffic across multiple replicas to improve performance and reduce load on individual systems.

Data Distribution

Replicate content across multiple regions to reduce latency and improve user experience for globally distributed audiences. Store data in specific regions to comply with data residency requirements or improve local access.

Compliance

Ensure compliance with data retention regulations by replicating data to a secondary location. Meet data sovereignty requirements by storing data within specific geographical boundaries.

Testing and Development

Replicate production data to create isolated environments for development and testing without affecting production systems.
