In the event of a disaster or drill, you can launch your OS and third-party applications on demand and they will run natively on AWS. You only pay for what you use during the disaster period. In other words, you get robust resilience with RPOs of seconds and RTOs of minutes at the cost of a cold standby solution. Increase reliability Geographic redundancy — Best practice for disaster recovery is to use a target site that is located in a different geographic region than the source environment. Short distances between source and target sites can be problematic from a regulatory perspective. CloudEndure Disaster Recovery enables the use of a target site in a remote geographic location while still performing continuous data replication with minimal RPOs and RTOs. You can implement geographic redundancy between on-premises and AWS, across different AWS Regions, and between a different cloud provider and AWS. High tolerance for network instability — CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is designed to keep data in sync, asynchronously, over long distances, regardless of database write rates or network conditions. In contrast, legacy replication products are designed to be used within a data center with low network latencies and are not designed to protect data across long distances. If you have a write- intensive system, your tolerance for network interruptions is very low. Replicate any application from any source infrastructure Any application — CloudEndure Disaster Recovery replicates and recovers all SAP applications running on AWS-supported OS. In addition, CloudEndure Disaster Recovery natively supports replication of other applications, including third- party software, legacy applications, homegrown applications, OS, and common applications such as Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft Exchange Server, and SharePoint. Any source — CloudEndure Disaster Recovery provides equally efficient replication and recovery for all SAP applications running on x86-based Windows and Linux OS versions. This includes SAP applications running on any physical, virtual, or cloud-based infrastructure. Block-level replication — CloudEndure Disaster Recovery utilizes block-level replication rather than taking snapshots or writing data to disk. This is what enables data integrity for SAP applications as well as their OS and all surrounding applications. Perform automated disaster recovery testing Easy implementation — A strong disaster recovery strategy must include the capability for frequent testing. However, many organizations avoid launching frequent drills due to the overhead needed to do so, or concerns that testing or a failed drill will disrupt their production environment or even cause data loss. CloudEndure Disaster Recovery enables unlimited, automated disaster recovery testing for all of your SAP applications. This reduces time-intensive manual processes such as log shipping, which can take days. Non-disruptive testing — You can quickly and easily conduct frequent, non-disruptive drills that launch SAP applications and all other workloads in your target AWS Region without impacting your source environment. All changes that take place in your source environment during tests are saved and replicated. Enable data integrity Point-in-time recovery – This functionality enables failover to earlier versions of replicated servers, which is particularly important for cyber attacks or IT environment corruptions where the most current version of system data has been compromised. Enterprise-grade security – CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is ISO 27001 compliant, and enables the highest level of security standards by using AES 256-bit data encryption both in transit and at rest. Replication traffic is transmitted directly from your source servers to your target AWS Region, and can be restricted to your private networks for better security, speed, and control.
