Global WAN Data Replication

Data replication over IP networks is offering a practical, cost effective strategy for distributed data consistency management, remote backup and disaster recovery across multiple distributed LANs, data centers and subsidiaries.

In the past, remote data protection was not practical for many organizations, especially for disaster recovery. For one thing, it was limited to short distances, often within a building or across a metropolitan area. Today, however, organizations need to replicate data over distances of 300 miles or more to be confident that the disaster-recovery site will be outside the impacted area. Secondly, cost was also a big problem. Data replication required that organizations invest in two costly storage infrastructures. And finally, the organizations often found themselves replicating data that didn’t need to be replicated at all, further driving up costs.

RELDATA Unified Storage Solutions provide a broad range of data protection features at no extra charge, making remote data protection solutions for disaster recovery practical for almost any organization. The remote data protection functionality includes uni- and bi-directional iSCSI based block-data and rsync-based file replication over TCP/IP networks, which can be automatically scheduled and used in support of disaster recovery. RELDATA implemented a patent-pending snapshot-leveraged data replication procedure, representing an incremental data replication between a mirrored snapshot of the source volume and the destination volume. This approach enables an ongoing availability of the source volume, reduces the amount of traffic significantly if data replication is repeated periodically and allows very short time periods of repeated data replication procedures. In addition replicated data traffic fully supports IPSec encryption and CHAP authentication as mandated by the IETF-ratified specification.

Storage managers and administrators profit from the following benefits using RELDATA Unified Storage data protection solutions:

  • Remote data protection features on both block- and file-level are available at no extra charge.
  • Remote traffic between two RELDATA Unified Storage Gateway locations can be additionally secured and accelerated by integrated IPsec encryption
  • Snapshot leveraged data protection offers an ongoing replication of changes in selected source volumes
  • NDMP support enables direct, server-less disk-to-disk-to-tape backups of files
  • Extensive rollback functionality facilitates rapid disaster recovery of lost data
  • Enabling immediate access from disaster site to remote replicated data
  • Standard Fibre Channel connectivity support in the backend opens existing FC SANs for backup storage of distributed Ethernet data

As a result, organizations can use data replication to expand the amount of critical data that is replicated. IT administrators can selectively replicate data across long distances, enabling disaster-recovery sites to be located hundreds or thousands of miles away from the primary location.

Thus RELDATA data protection solutions provide an easy and cost effective method of delivering data to and from all your remote operations. This is particularly useful for companies such as real estate companies, law firms, accounting firms, banks and hundreds of small and large businesses alike that have more than one location to manage. This is also especially useful for growing companies that are either frequently opening new locations or acquiring remote locations through mergers and acquisitions.

Finally, RELDATA data protection solutions provide the utmost reliability in backing up and restoring critical business data since the company’s data is fully distributed. The remote offices and locations can effectively become channels for remote off-site backup of key data so that there is no single point of failure. In addition, highly critical data can be additionally replicated to locations that offer adequate level of data protection and security (such as tape backup).
