Features

Key features

OCI provides a solid platform in the growing list of cloud services available today that allows customers to deploy, manage and scale their business applications within an always-on, highly available platform.
For mission critical systems, online replication to physical or virtual machines is provided including replication and migration to dissimilar hardware with automatic boot-critical driver insertion.
For many applications, offline replication to a system image file hosted within a public cloud or on premises storage service will meet Recovery Time Objectives (RTO), while the lack of compute resources needed within the cloud environment provides significant cost savings. The VA provides support for replication to all common system image standards including vhdx, qcow2 and vmdk fille formats.

Benefits

  • Live Replication

    Fully automated with periodic syncs between the source and target systems based on RPO requirements. Only changed data will be copied.

  • Virtual Disk Replication​

    Clone directly to a virtual disk image files in AWS, Azure, Oracle Cloud or S3 blob storage removing the overhead of a running virtual or physical machine.

  • File or block based replication

    Block based replication can significantly lower your RPOs when compared to file based replication.

  • Testing Sandbox

    Create a sandbox test environment even on physical systems without interrupting continuous replication.

  • Failover and Failback

    Source systems may be monitored with automatic failover when any outage is detected with automatic DNS changes if required.

  • RPO Reporting

    Determine if you can meet your RPOs with CloneManager RPO monitoring and reporting. Receive email reports for replications that fall outside of your target RPOs.
