Why replication?It’s not just a commercial bundling of products…
it’s a cohesive data protection strategy
Virtualization enables cost-effective replication Simple failover to dissimilar hardware and storage Cheap standby environment: single host for multiple replicas Quick, simple restore: whole VM (not application-specific)
Virtualization enables unified data protection Image-level, incremental backup for all VMs Image-level, incremental replication for tier 1 VMs Only difference is the target Hypervisor-agnostic approach

New distributed architecture Better performance with lightweight proxies that act as
data movers Simplified deployment and maintenance of
remote/large scale installations Allows more efficient replication over WAN

Example: scale-out
![Page 7: Veeam Backup & Replication v6 Disaster Recovery](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061507/56816726550346895ddbba1e/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Replication ArchitectureUses proxies servers at source and target sites
Proxies communicate directly to each other Full support for WAN acceleration appliances
Near-CDP capable (replicate every 5-15 minutes)
Target proxy (VM or physical) Receives incremental change data Decompresses the data Injects data into the new replica
restore point
Source proxy (VM or physical) Retrieves changed blocks
incrementally Compresses and deduplicates
the data Sends incremental change
data file to target proxy

Faster Replication 10x faster… How?
vStorage API Hot Add (“Virtual Appliance” mode) for writes Hot Add leverages ESXi storage I/O stack Much faster than ESXi network stack (NBD mode) Unlike direct SAN access mode, performance does not suffer
with thin provisioned disks (most commonly used) v6 even uses the same approach for full VM restores!
Traffic compression WAN traffic is heavily compressed Configurable compression level to control proxy CPU load Turn on or off (for WAN accelerators compatibility)
![Page 9: Veeam Backup & Replication v6 Disaster Recovery](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061507/56816726550346895ddbba1e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Better Failover 1-Click failover
Automatic re-IP to match DR site Automatic virtual network update to match DR site Replica VM placement settings are now a part of the job Full support for DVS switches Multi-select operations
Automatic job updates Failover and failback processes automatically update the
replication job to exclude/include VM
![Page 10: Veeam Backup & Replication v6 Disaster Recovery](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061507/56816726550346895ddbba1e/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Better Failover (continued) Active rollbacks for VMware
Each replica restore point is stored as a VM snapshot
Every restore point is immediate available Instant power-on – no VMDK rebuild required before failover Can start any restore point in vSphere Client or from PowerCLI
Replica state protection Failed replication pass no longer leaves the latest restore point
inconsistent until the next pass Powering any replica restore point for testing does not change the
actual restore point (changes are redirected) Retention processing is about simple snapshot commit!
![Page 11: Veeam Backup & Replication v6 Disaster Recovery](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061507/56816726550346895ddbba1e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Real Failback
1-Click & Confirm Failback Fully automated (includes backward re-IP) Confidently failback knowing you can always go back
Failback commit Instantly go back to replica if the new VM (failback target) is not
working as expected Or commit failback for automatic replica clean up, and required job
updates (aka “re-protect”) Delta sync
Transfers only the differences back to original VM Original VM gone? No problem!
Restore it from backup, delta-sync will take care of the rest Failback with no target VM is also supported (full sync)
![Page 12: Veeam Backup & Replication v6 Disaster Recovery](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061507/56816726550346895ddbba1e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Improved Seeding
Seed from backup Up to 10x smaller seed size Keeps thin provisioned disks thin
Seed anywhere Veeam server placement no longer affects the ability to seed
Replica mapping Map replicas to existing VMs in DR site Reuse VMs produced with a different replication job, or VMs
restored from backup First job run will only transfer the differences between source
VM disks and mapped VM disks

Shared engine features
Traffic throttling Defines rules based on source/target IP address pair Global – divides available bandwidth between all proxy serves Flexible – rules can be enabled depending on time of the day
Swap exclusion Excludes disk blocks backing swap files from processing
Enforceable processing windows Jobs crossing the defined replication window are automatically
terminated (prevents snapshot commit during prod hours) Simplified scheduling
Overlapping backup and replication no longer causes either job to fail – no more baby-sitting your schedules!

Other Features
Replica re-homing Makes the replica your new production VM (automatic cleanup) Helps greatly with data center migrations projects
Replicate to cluster Ensures that replication can continue even if current replica
host is unavailable
