We’ve discussed the significance and impact of having business continuity plan for small & medium businesses and how it change the game for them. With Vembu BDR’s instant boot option, business continuity is now an achievable dream for any small business in a cost effective way.
Having virtual environments to boot and boost your business is important for every business continuity plans, so does storing data of VM sessions is equally important. Having zero downtime doesn’t define business continuity, but maintaining linearity in processing business data does define the actual definition.
Virtual machines usually store processed data of each active session in a temporary location which gets deleted once VM gets shut-down or restarted. Resuming with the changes or backing up the VM session data is not an easy task to get achieved. We at Vembu made sure VembuBDR will be a disaster-recovery product that provide business continuity plan with its core values unharmed.
With VembuBDR, customers can now make sure their business stays alive forever along with business data unharmed.
Where is it used?
If a customer or user lost the client connection for any reason he/she would report to administrator team and they will try accessing backup server and go through the recovery option instant boot and create the VMs. Then the client credentials are provided to customer and customer resume his work. Hence the administrator team is required to create the RAW machine and perform the disk restore using latest time stamp, which has the latest changes in the restored new machine. Once done, the restore progress administrator team would give the new machine to the customer and he can continue his work without losing any data with the new machine.
There are two ways that these stored changes in VM support persistent boot:
- Instant boot via creating VMs along with the changes (It will be like resuming a real time system to resume your unfinished tasks).
- The changes made to a VHD file attached to the disk management will also remain constant and gets written to the files which can be retrieved for future references.
