Remote Replication

Compellent Remote Replication, Remote Instant Replay

Remote Instant Replay™

Remote Instant Replay leverages space-efficient snapshots between local and remote sites for cost-effective disaster recovery and business continuity. Following initial site synchronization, only incremental changes in enterprise data need to be replicated, minimizing capacity requirements and speeding recovery. Known as Thin Replication, this unique approach enables network storage administrators to choose between Fibre Channel or native IP connectivity for data transfer.

How to Replicate Cost-Effectively with Instant Replays

  • Replicate data with less bandwidth and disk capacity using space-efficient Replays (snapshots)
  • Use Portable Volume, a preconfigured set of external hard drives, to sync sites in days instead of months
  • Choose traditional Fibre Channel or cost-effective IP-based transfer links for remote replication
  • Optimize network utilization and increase replication performance with bandwidth simulation and shaping
  • Eliminate the need for identical system configurations at local and remote sites with Thin Replication
  • Implement a robust disaster recovery solution in six clicks using a step-by-step setup wizard
