Disaster Recovery Solutions

With Compellent, enterprises of all sizes can implement a robust disaster recovery plan. Following initial site synchronization, only changes in data need to be replicated. Thin Replication uses space-efficient Replays (continuous snapshots) to provide real-time data protection and ensure high availability across multiple sites. And since Compellent storage doesn't require identical configurations at each site, users can leverage lower-cost SATA or SAS disks at remote locations. The cost of data replication can be minimized even further by using Portable Volume, a set of preconfigured hard drives designed for syncing data between sites.

How to Replicate Data More Cost-Effectively with Compellent

  • Expedite initial synchronization using Portable Volume external drives in lieu of duplicate arrays or high-speed data links
  • Replicate only incremental changes in data after initial synchronization with Thin Replication
  • Meet both performance and budget requirements with unique bandwidth simulation and shaping
  • Replicate data between sites using native IP-based connectivity and built-in FC-to-iSCSI conversion
  • Set up and manage local and remote sites quickly and easily with a single point-and-click interface
  • Test replication success in minutes without risking disruption to your production environment
