Hitting Your Data Protection Sweet SpotWebinar

Learn How To:

● Establish a Data Protection Plan that will meet your

organization's RPO and RTO requirements while

also meeting data retention requirements

● Identify which applications need the tightest

RPO/RTO and how to craft a solution to meet them

● Identify which data needs to be retained and how

to meet those retention requirements

● How to protect the organizations from natural

disaster and ransomware with a single process

What is the Data Protection Sweet Spot

● On one side there are a few applications that need to be recovered rapidly

with as little downtime and data loss as possible

● On the other side there is most of the data that needs protected for retention

purposes but may not be needed during disaster recovery

○ Exception - Right now Hurricane Harvey and Irma - Long term stays will require

recovery of more data

● Establishing the sweet spot balances the priority demands vs. cost realities

● Problem is many data protection products can’t strike this balance

● But some can: Need to differentiate on more than price (service, ease of use,

etc…)

Meeting the Rapid

Recovery Challenge

● Requirements

○ Rapid and frequent data captures

○ Data replication on-site and off-site (cloud)

○ Easy testing and simulation

● Solutions

○ Incremental Backup - Boot from Backup

○ Replication - “Live” target

Application Identification

● Resist the “everything is critical”

temptation

● Identify the 3-4 most critical

applications in the environment

● Understand the need to tier recovery

○ Mission Critical (within minutes)

○ Business Critical (within hours)

○ Convenience Data (within days)

○ Old Data / Archive (within weeks)

Developing a Backup Strategy

● Everything should be backed up, even

replicated apps

○ Backup is sometimes the recovery of last

resort

● Some business critical and convenience

data will recover from backup

● A backup system that can recover in hours

and days will keep costs down

● Important to know how long it will take to

recover all data classes from backup

● Important to practice recovery from

backups

Developing a

Retention

Strategy ● Backup is only used for recovery on

the initial 2-3 backups

● Then it becomes a retention vehicle

to meet legal or regulatory

requirements

Creating a Holistic Strategy

that Protect from

Ransomware to Floods

● Important that the backup

process is a single process

that can protect from major

disaster to minor disasters

● Incorporate both real-time

data copy and long term cost
