Define Your Objectives
• Time between declaration and service availability
• Time to restore services to useable state
Recovery Time Objective (RTO)
• Data in system lost at disaster time• Amount of data entered since last backup
Recovery Point Objective (RPO)
• Time required to test recovery plans• Resources used for testing
Test Time Objective (TTO)

Your cloud, my cloud
• Public Scalable and elastic computing services offered to external
customers via the Internet.
Typically multi-tenant, where multiple customers are able to share a single set of resources.
• Private Dynamic and scalable computer services offered to internal
customers using equipment the customer owns and delivered over a private network.
Traditional Approaches to DR

Backup Your Data
• Focus is on protecting data– Tape backup
– Imaging
• Poor performance– Slow RTO, RPO (days)
• Hidden costs– How do we get the data back
in to a useable state?
– How long to rebuild server?

Double Infrastructure
• Focus is on protecting application
– Clustering
– Like-for-like infrastructure
• Performance, but at what price?
– Near-zero RTO, RPO
• High cost– Duplicate infrastructure
– Management complexity

Bridging the Gap
• Fast RTO and RPO• Duplicate resources• Costly and complex
• Slow RTO and RPO• Over commitment of recovery resources
Duplication Backup

Customer Successes
Nichols College
“Disaster recovery solutions can be very complex ... PlateSpin Forge is very straightforward. There’s just one piece of hardware to manage. It’s low maintenance, and has low overhead. Without it, we certainly would have spent more money on another disaster recovery solution that would have required more resources to support it.”

Reed Smith LLP
"With PlateSpin Protect, we can recover multiple sites with the same set of hardware quite easily, in a matter of minutes."
