Chris Bayne, Chief Solutions Architect, demonstrates disascer recovery failback. The Infrascale Disaster Recovery solution mandates that failing “back” to your primary site (after failing over to a secondary) be simple and straight-forward. In this demo, we’ll shows how quick and efficient it is to stop the secondary and send the bits back to primary, allowing the administrator to restore normal business operations.

Chris Bayne, Chief Solutions Architect, demonstrates cloud failover for macro recovery. Failing over to a secondary or cloud location is the desired outcome for mitigating or responding to macro disasters impacting a primary work site. The Infrascale Disaster Recovery solution meets that demand. In this section, we’ll demonstrate how to set up a Disaster Recovery run-book orchestration and how that orchestration would be used to recover in the cloud.

Chris Bayne, Chief Solutions Architect, demonstrates local failover for micro recovery. The Infrascale Disaster Recovery solution realizes full capabilities to boot a singular (or multiple) image locally, versus a complete set of images booting to the cloud. This feature comes in handy for micro-disasters (malware infection, corrupted hard drives, etc.). We’ll show how quickly an administrator can boot their selected version of a disaster recovery images locally – and get production back on track.

Chris Bayne, Chief Solutions Architect, introduces and demonstrates Infrascale Disaster Recovery. The Infrascale Disaster Recovery (IDR) solution is met with two distinct product variations – IDR-Local and IDR-Cloud. Both provide protections for all modern systems, include DR image verification, and unlimited version history. Either can be used for backup and recovery of files/folder or as full server or virtual machine DR fail over and fail back. When used for DR, the bootable images are ready in minutes.

IDR-Local: Backup to your on-premises appliance and run the replicas locally. Backups (only) available in the cloud; no cloud boot.

IDR-Cloud: Backup to your appliance and boot locally or in the cloud. Enjoy unlimited DR testing, DR server orchestration, and replicate unlimited restore points to the cloud (disk limits apply).

The Infrascale Cloud Failover Appliance (CFA) is the critical starting point to our Disaster Recovery experience. We’ll show how quickly an administrator can configure VMware (or other hypervisors or physical servers) to be replicated; ensure the replication meets desired scheduling/check points and retention policies; how we ensure the VM replicates to the cloud; and make sure the image is bootable / ready for recovery.

Personnel:

Scott Hamilton, Senior Director of Product Management and Marketing, Data Center Platforms Business Unit, discusses the need for open composability in future enterprise IT infrastructure. As we near zettabyte scale, shared-nothing models strand resources, lack of agility leads to SKU explosion, and new use cases move GPUs to the data. Composable infrastructure is the answer, and NVMe over Fabrics provides the solution. Western Digital is supporting composability through OpenFlex and Open Composable API, and the Kazan Networks acquisition accelerates NVME-oF as a building block. The Open Composable ecosystem now includes Western Digital, Kaminario, Liqid, and DriveScale, along with Xilinx, Eideticom, Mellanox, Arista, and Broadcom.
