Hello everyone. Uh welcome to the today's session. Uh we'll be talking about how NetApps can help you protect your mission critical workloads with Snapper active sync and metrocluster. Uh my name is Anjeli Munal. I'm a director of product management. Uh it's been my second year with NetApp and uh we'll be talking about how our disaster recovery and business continuity portfolio can help you protect your data. Uh with me I'm very glad to have Nikita Goel. >> Hey everyone. Uh Nikita Goel this side working as a product manager with Netai for a little over three years. Very excited to be talking about uh our disaster recovery portfolio today. Uh so before we start I would like to uh just a reminder right everything that is being shared in today's session is under uhNDA uh it cannot be disclosed without any written permission from NetApp and all the information is confidential and proprietary okay so let's quickly go over the agenda uh in this session we'll start with what is our vision uh we'll talk about you know what is happening in today's world in reality and then go deeper into our data protections focusing on the business continuity portfolio especially the deep dives into the snapper active sync and metro cluster and then wrapping up with key takeaways. So without further ado uh we'll uh start the session on you know where the world looks like today. As we all know right there is no shortage of disaster events such as you know talk about earthquakes, hurricanes and constant cyber threats. We all know right there is very little we can do to stop disasters from happening. But what we can certainly do is be better prepared for them. With NetApp, we offer a portfolio of solution that is designed just to address the most pressing challenges of protecting your data today, whether it's natural or man-made so that your workloads mission critical, you know, data can be up and running 24 by7 365 days a year. So, how's what our NetApp vision looks like when it comes in terms of comprehensive protecting your data? So at NetApp we treat data very centric at the heart of it across the cyber resiliency there are four main pillars one is the ransomware protection uh the second is the backup the third disaster recovery which we'll be going into deeper into today's session and the fourth is data governance. So when it comes to ransomware protection, we want to make sure your data is protected from any cyber attacks and we are able to quickly recover your data. Uh secondly, with our 321 backup or I would say 3 to one1 backup as you have learned with our net app uh having a backup with the vault in addition it can comprehensively protect your entire you know data estate. Uh the thirdly the disaster recovery which will be again you know going into the deeper session and for the data governance we are very happy to introduce that we can now help you understand what is the kind of data that you have across your estate and understanding data is very important so that you would know what data to be protect and how you can protect and make the best use of it and all this is secured by design. uh security being our topmost priority and it helps configure and protect wide variety of workloads whether we are talking about virtualization from vware or we are talking about enterprise level applications such as Oracle SAP SQL you name it or it could be file shares and it doesn't matter where your data resides it could be onrem or cloud and we have you know all the three big hyperscalers protected with micros Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud and AWS. So as you can see we this is all comes together under with a single control pane of class for your ease of simplicity and use. So we got the single APIs powered by blue XP so that you don't have to manage your data estate separately irrespective of your workloads and the choice of the way you want to protect it with blue XP uh as the single portal uh we provide simplicity and manageability of your uh dataacross your state. Uh so let's talk about you know what's happening in the today's real world. We talk a lot about you know protecting the data from the disaster recovery. Do we really need it? So as you can see it is a reality and in past two decades there has been a diverse set of you know disasters that had hit globally around the world. Based on certain surveys, imagine about 91% of data centers have experienced this unplanned outages and not a surprise right 44% of these are because of the primary cause is the power outage and that could be because of the flooding the hurricanes the earthquakes and it's irrespective of the part of the world like we can see across the world in US and Florida or Philippines or Nepal you name it No one is spared of the disasters that can happen any time but yet right we can definitely be prepared for it. Uh and it could be any sectors like for the airlines Virgin Blue uh that prevented uh the outage from passengers from boarding flights for 11 days. Now imagine the cost that had generated because of the damaged reputation and themillions of dollars were kind of you know for the effect to the passengers and then uh on the other hand the banks had as an outage and it hence hundreds of thousands of customers and no longer is the day you know with the all the internet technology coming together that we go to a bank to a physical location and if the bank is not working it affect 30 people but now it can you know affect 30,000 or millions of people if there is even an 1 hour of outage and alongside what we have seen is that the rise in the average reported cost of the outage that is like almost 50% increase in past two years and I'm sure none of us right would be like to be in the news as such and even the downtime cost when we look at from small enterprise to large enterprise it has been rapidly increasing for big enterprise it could be about a half a million per hour now imagine that's a huge cost and none of thegiants in the industries are you know spared from it uh Amazon it costed them 34 millions and Facebook uh you know and fiber outage costed like a whooping 65 million so the costs are going up and they are increasing especially with the world you know coming together. So, Nikita, can you tell us how we can comprehensively protect our solutions, you know, and help them protect from all the disasters that we talked about? >> Definitely, Analie, I would love to talk about our comprehensive uh data protection portfolio that we have here at NetApp that allows customers to protect workloads across all use cases. >> [gasps] >> [gasps] >> [gasps] >> So before we get into NetApp's data protection portfolio right I think I would like to take a minute to help you understand the breadth and the length of how we offer protection. So NetApp's data protection strategy it can go from a simple to a complex environment from major to minor issues uh not only for your local environments but also for your regionally deployed workloads. We can protect across both natural and man-made disasters. This could include typhones, user errors, or any Malaysia's actors that are trying to access your data. NetApp has a solution for every situation and for every problem that you could experience as a customer today. So, as a customer, when you're looking to uh enable uh your solutions for protection against disasters and for business continuity, I think one of the most key concepts that comes forward is the recovery point objective and the recovery time objective. uh recovery point objective basically helps you understand the time period or the amount of data loss that you as an organization are willing to tolerate. And then on the other hand we have the recovery time objective whichis which helps you understand what is the uh downtime that you as an organization arewilling to experience. NetApp can offer technologies across different uh spaces starting with backup and recovery right where definitely the RB and RTO can run into a couple of minutes to days to months as well right depending on the amount of your data. Then you have disaster recovery solutions right where the RB and RTO is reduced using synchronous and asynchronous technologies. And finally we have the business continuity space which is what is the hero of our conversation uh today where we are able to achieve an RB and RDO of zero. Next up right we're going to deep dive and understand what are the different technologies in these spaces and then obviously double click on the business continuity space as we move forward in the session. So let us look at the comprehensive portfolio that NetApp is able to offer you today. We start with the backup space, right? Where we, as we mentioned, we have asynchronous technologies that can help you achieve an RPO of somewhere between hours to days that move into the disaster recovery space where we are able to achieve an RPO ranging from 0 to 30 minutes. However, these failures are generally manual or scripted uh using asynchronous and synchronous technologies. And finally, right, the hero of our conversation, which is continuous availability. This is the space where we are able to offer you two technologies. Snap Mirror Active Sync as well as Metrocluster. Each of them having their own value enabling customers to choose the right solution for the right workloads with Snap Mirror Active Sync being your granular business continuity solution and MCC on the other hand being able to provide you infrastruct infrastructure level protection. Now how about now we deep dive and understand right what these technologies offer and how can they help you protect your data uh against uh all disasters to ensure your mission critical workloads are always up and running. So let us talk about snap mirror active sync first. Right? Snap mirror active sync as a solution is able to provide you a granular business continuity uh protection uh with transparent failovers which means that at an application level you can define which workloads require protection and ensure that in times of disasters there is no manual or scripted intervention required for the failover to occur. thereby ensuring that you always have an RPO and RDO of zero. Uh the best part of about this solution is that it is flexible in nature. It can be deployed on an uh all flash array or an ASA system as well and it is built into onab which means that you do not require any additional licensing to utilize this functionality. It comes as part of the on bundle. So there is no additional hardware dependency that you have apart from the platforms that you've already mentioned. It's a very simple architecture with relatively uh limited overhead in terms of networking requirements. Apart from the fact that a roundtrip time of less than 10 milliseconds is what we expect you to have for this solution given that for synchronous replication and to maintain an RPO zero we require the RT to be less than 10 milliseconds. It is a predominantly sand solution which helps you protect workloads across discurs and fiber channel connectivity uh with a scale uh with a scalability of up to 50 CGs and uh 400 volumes allowing you to protect a large number of workloads uh against any disaster that may occur. Finally, a very key point, right, a very key feature of Snap Mirror Active Sync, a pillar that we hold uh dear is the fact that we're not just able to protect across two sides. We provide resilency uh through our data protection portfolio using a three-side mechanism where you can have a snap mirror active sync relationship between your site A and site B which could be your data center, yourprimary data center as well as your near data center. And then you have a third site where you can create a snap mirror asynchronous relationship thereby ensuring that you always have three copies of consistent data. And in times of failures right you don't have to worry if your site A or your primary site A primary site goes down the relationship from the asynchronous site will automatically fail over to the uh surviving site B and ensure that you always continue to have two copies of consistent data. So this is at a high level what Snapware active sync can offer. These are the pillars that make Snapper Active Sync your granular business continuity solution. Next up, right, I think I want to deep dive into some of the storage architectures that we are able to offer our customers as part of uh Snapper Active Sync. Starting with the asymmetric activetechnology which has been available in ONAP since 9.9.1 utilized by a number of customers to help them protect workloads that are that require high availability however are not very critical in terms of load balancing under the asymmetric architecture. You're able to offer readr access on your primary site and you're able to offer read only access on the secondary site which becomes rewrite only in times of failure. Now this is obviously a solution that can definitely provide you higher variability but we understand in today's customers environment right uh in the sand world what is more important is a symmetric act activearchitecture which not only offers you high availability but also the ability to load balance your workloads non-disruptively under the symmetric activeframework right we now are able to offer readride access on both sides ensuring that you can host workloads seamlessly across the two sides and migrate them as per your business needs. This is an architecture that is available now with ONAB 915.1 and definitely helps customers that are looking to protect not only their standalone but clustered applications such as VMware metro storage cluster, Oracle rack or the Windows failover clustering technologies as well. So how about now we deep dive a little bit on the symmetric activearchitecture and some of its key tenants that help you understand the power of the solution. So talking about the uh technology right this can be enabled uh using system manager. It can also be enabled through our native vere plug-in in OTV where you can utilize the automated failover duplex policy to enable the symmetric activefunctionality giving you the birectional synchronous application with readr capabilities. Like I mentioned, for all your clustered and standalone applications, this can now give you load balancing as well as seamless failovers under a single solution with the granularity to define which workloads are most mission critical for your organization. Finally, a veryimportant feature that is part of symmetric activeis host proximity. As a consumer, you can define which host is proximal to which site so that you can always ensure that your host access is optimized for performance.You can uh definitely visit our interoperability matrix to understand the different host OS that we are able to support which ranges from VMware, Linux, Unix, HyperV. And in case you have a workload that is not available on IMT today, right, please feel free to reach out to us. We would be more than happy to work with you to understand which other workloads can we uh help you protect using snap mirror active sync. Now that we know about what snap interactive sync is, its architecture as well as this metric activecapabilities, I think it'svery important to call out a key component uh of the snap interactive sync ecosystem which is the onap mediator. Our onap mediator is a passive forum member which is an essential entity that needs to be deployed by the customer on a Linux physical or a virtual machine. uh this entity is what helps us offer you non-disruptive automated failovers in times of unplanned disasters. If you require high availability or resiliency for your ONAB mediator environment, you can definitely utilize the VM's HA capabilities to offer that. And a single ONAP mediator today can manage up to 10 cluster pairs, which means that you do not require a mediator for every instance of the relationship that you're creating. You can have a single mediator managing multiple snapware active sync relationships thereby ensuring that you can provide you can protect multiple workloads. This is a key component that needs to be uh deployed for the solution to be able to offer you transparent failovers and make sure your data is protected at all times. Um I think now we've discussed a lot about failures and failovers right. uh one thing that the customers always look forward to is to understand what is the availability profile that we can offer with snap interactive sec right you want to understand under different failure scenarios how will we protect your data before I go into some of the key failure scenarios I think I want to call out two main points one is that under any failure or fault right uh the solution is built to ensure that your host can continue to have access of data from the surviving side which means that we always value not having any downtime ensuring your high availability. Secondly, once your failure or halt is fixed, the recovery is automatic. There is no manual or support intervention required for you to reync uh the relationship or bring this relationship back to a synchronous state. So this is these are very key tenants of how we have built snap interactive sync. How about now we talk about two main failure scenarios. one is a singlephine scenario where your intercluster link which is the link between your site C1 and C2 goes down. In such a scenario, right, C1 which is your designated primary uh in a snap react to sync relationship will continue to host the access for data. The mediator will be able to provide the corupum to C1 to initiate that and all your hosts deployed across site C1 and C2 will continue to have data access through the primary cluster. So there is no downtime. Your RPO uh yoursynchronous replication is able to ensure that you have a consistent copy of data and once the fault is fixed once the relationship once the intercluster link comes back online the relationship will be synced automatically and you will continue to have your RPO and RDO of zero. The other scenario right we at times right in the real world it's not just a single failure that can happen. We can also have scenarios where you have double failures. Right? Now we what we are talking about in this double failure scenario is not just your intercluster link going down which is between site C1 and site C2 but also losing the ability to service your workloads from cluster C2 which is your mirror copy or designated mirror copy. In this case again the mediator will help ensure that site C1 which is a designated primary will continue to host the data for all the hosts across site C1 and C2. So there is no disruption there is no downtime and you continue to have data access and once your site C2 comes back online along with the intercluster link the relationship will go back to in sync and your host will continue to have data access from the site they are proximal to. So this is how we are able to provide you a robust business continuity solution right and I think it'svery important for you as a customer to see this in real time which is why next up we have a demo for you where we will showcase how you can easily set up a snap active sync relationship using system manager and then depict a side failure scenario to help you see the power of snap active sync. So let us get into the demo. Now >> first we'll add a sand initiator group. Assign a descriptive name and select the storage VM for the group. Choose replicate initiator group and pick the cluster for the mirror copy. Add the host initiators. Save and it's now available across both clusters in the relationship. Next, let's add a L. Give it a name. Choose it storage VM home. Specify quantity and size and then save. Your L is now ready for use. Consistency groups are key for replication with Snap Mirror Active Sync. Create one using existing volumes. Name it and select its storage VM. Add your new L to the group. Save and it's set. Now we'll protect the consistency group for business continuity. Select the host storage VM, the destination cluster, and the destination storage VM. Ensure the automated failover duplex policy is selected for birectional sync. Save the protection relationship and verify its healthy and insync status. Finally, let's configure the host. Initially, no ice scuzzi loans are accessed. Use the ice scuzzi initiator tool to connect to the LN on both clusters. With NetApp AFF storage, you'll see optimized and unoptimized paths to each cluster. for local storage connectivity, reducing WAN traffic, configure host proximity by editing the protection relationship and adjusting proximity settings. After saving the NPIO commands, confirm the path to the LUN with one optimized for local storage. And that's it. Your LUN is replicated and protected with Snap Mirror Active Sync. Let's demonstrate the resilience of snap mirror active sync with a simulated storage site failure. We'll start by confirming the four paths of connectivity to the LUN using the NPIO command.With IIO meter running a balanced workload, we simulate a power outage on our primary cluster to test the failover process.In system manager, we observe the primary cluster's connectivity loss and the replication status falling out of sync, indicating our simulated site failure.During the outage, the NPIO command confirms we're down to two paths, those to the surviving cluster, maintaining our data access. After the primary storage recovers, system manager displays full connectivity and a healthy and insync replication status just as we expect. A final check with the NPIO command shows restored paths to the line. An IO meter reports zero errors, proving the robust failover capability of Snap Mirror Active Sync. >> Wasn't that amazing seeing the power of Snap Mirror Active Sync in real time to be able to protect your mission critical workloads? how seamlessly we were able to fail over and ensure that your RP and RTO is always zero with a consistent copy of data. uh we've talked a lot about what Snapner interactive sync can do today and the value it provides right but at NetApp I we definitely invest into building our products and I would like to take a moment now to talk about what is next for snap interactive sync right uh I think one of the areas that we would be investing in at this point is to ensure that we can provide you a solution that can perform for the workloads that you require so scale out is something that we're definitely looking to address uh in our future road map. In addition to that, right uh as a solution, uh NetApp uh is focusing on SAN and we would make investments to ensure that your workloads have the right reliable performance and connectivity for your SAN ecosystem to make sure that you can protect all your workloads. And finally, right, at NetApp, something that is very close to us is simplicity. And we will continue to make improvements in this area to ensure that while we protect your mission critical workloads, we can offer you simplified deployments and simplified user experience to ensure that you can protect your uh workloads at ease. Uh I know we have talked a lot about granular uh business continuity solutions, right? But I think it'svery important to also talk about uh NetApp metro cluster to provide your infrastructure level protection. And I'm going to pass the baton here to Anjeli to help us talk and understand more about metrocluster. >> Uh thanks Nikita. Uh so let's now talk about right NetApp metrocluster as we all know right this is industry's niche uh which is being used by the thousands of customers today and it's a vendroven technology.uh I would like to talk you know what's the latest and before we do that I would like to talk about you know the key pillars that makes the metro cluster uh so first thing is it provides you a sync mirror you know that provides the array level protection uh so it helps you protect your entire cluster as opposed to just uh kind of the data set uh within the node uh with today's you know advancements in the IP technology which is you know tremendous tremendously growing with the super fast space. Our focus is on having the metrocluster IP support which can support clusters at the individual sites up to 700 kilometers apart and that's quite a distance and yet maintaining uh the zero rpo and the near zero RTO that we you know want to ensure with the business continuity solutions. Uh in addition it provides your unified architecture. So whether you're protecting your NAS workloads through NFS, SMB or protecting your SAND workloads you know with fiber channel or ICE we have you covered and alongside we also added support for uh S3 workloads as well. U NetUP metro cluster we call it set it once and forget it. Uh that means all you need is the configuration at the array and the installation time and no further configuration is needed and there are you know many customers who can you know vouch for it that you know it has been running for years without any you know maintenance overhead. uh the next pillar is around right it's a business continuity it you know we want to ensure that we can you know provide you that you know the zero rpo and the near zero rto that comes you know for the business continuity solution uh for that we have like redundant fabrics you know it could be an ethernet uh inter switch links uh as well as the mediator which you heard from nikita you know helps you provide an automatic switch over and switch back sothat your business can continue to run without any disruption. And they're also scalable. So a one mediator can protect you know five metrocluster and yes you do also have a choice to have a tiebreaker uh which is another form of handling the automatic you know failover and [clears throat] failback uh that scales up to you know 15 metro clusters uh with one tiebreaker.uh alongside uh it helps you protect your wide variety of uh workloads. You know it comes in four and eight nodes configuration and as an example you can protect up to you know 3,200 volumes in a four node combination uh to protect your workloads. So uh going further deep dive into more on the metrocluster you know technology uh one of the you know efficiency of using metrocluster is it now it's comes with advanced drive uh drive partitioning enabled and what that this feature does is it's provides that the physical disk into smaller number of partitions at the storage level so that each partition is just treated as a logical uh disc unit across the board and what it does is also now is automatically done. So there is no overhead of having a manual assignment. So it reduces any human error because it automatically follows the best practices uh of you know what we propose. So it helps you with the increased storage utilization uh with the you know all the efficiencies of the physical storage. It automates the spare partitioning so that you don't have to you know worry about manually doing it. So it gives you much larger you know the system efficiency and it can easily scale and above all right it helps you with the operational simplicity which we want to ensure to give it to all our customers. Uh the next uh again just like snap mirror right metrocluster upholds our commitment to security and compliance uh for the data protection uh you know it provides encryption through various themes such as using you know netapp volume encryption netapp aggregate encryption and encrypted drives. So you have a variety of the encryptions you know to ensure everything is protected from end to end. Um in addition right it has the front end host protocol supports with IP6. So your front end you know host traffic is secure as well as at the backend traffic you know whether we are looking for configuration replication service which is our you know cluster session manager uh which helps the you know helps secure uh thetraffic over the cluster peer network is secured using KDLS and then also we have the encryption at the NV log replication level as well as the storage replication level which you occurs via raid net app sync mirror over ICE or if you're talking about the NV log replications happening over RDMA over IRA. So all in all it is being encrypted you know from end to end so that again your data is not only protected but also run in a very secure environment. Uh we do support certain platforms today and we will continue to provide that for the other platforms as we go forward. Last but not the least, uh some of the recent things that we included in the metro cluster. Uh we added support for NVMe over fiber channel and NVME over TCP uh in our recent releases. Uh again as we all know NVME is getting very prevalent in the industry. It is almost facto you know for many of the high performance workloads. So we ensure that metrocluster works you know can deliver the NVME support uh so that your mission critical applications that high throughput low latency and you know can work to continuously run without any zero data loss across you know large distances.Uh alongside as I mentioned earlier we also enabled the S3 object storage. uh so what you can do is now you can support it uh the S3 objects running in a storage virtual machine whether it's we are looking at the mirror or end mirrored aggregates so we have you covered there and also when you create an S3 bucket using you know system manager or the onap automatically configures it to a default performance service level that is the highest available on your system so again you don't have to you know manage it manually and it automatically provides you with the you know the best uh best practicesuh again there's a lot more to it uh metro cluster and you know in the essence of time I think we'll just wrap it up saying that uh you know uh it helps you protects all your mission critical applications you know whether you're looking for uh virtualized you know metro storage cluster you know with VMware or your Windows service failover cluster you know enterprise applications such as SQL Oracle your entire you know the data state is protected as well as on the you know the infrastructure at the cluster level as we mentioned. So what's coming up in metrocluster uh like as we continue to you know innovate and you know provide you with more ease of usability. Uh so we are adding support for undisruptive migrations uh for so that you can move your data between an HA cluster to metrocluster IP. Uh it'll be introduced for the NAS workloads for now and we'll continue to build it for the other uh protocols as we go forward. And as you mentioned right security and compliance is very critical and it's very close to our hearts. We want to make sure we have continued to be on top of it in that area. With that, we will be introducing MD5 support uh for broader gateway protocol which will make sure that again your uh data isprotected and encrypted for when talking about the PR authentication level. So with that as we have seen right we have talked about the granular aspects with the snap mirror active sync and the infrastructure level at the metro cluster level. So Nikita could you tell us how we bring it all together and help comprehensively protect your data. Definitely Anjali I think it's time we all bring it together right to understand comprehensively and see actually in real time right how our infrastructure and granular solutions are allowing customers to protect their data so let's start with snap mirror active sync right snap active sync as we mentioned is your continuous availability solution for application focused granularity right that is able to provide you non-stop availability for all your mission critical sand workloads in a cost-effective manner given that it is built into ONAB giving you the refined control you need to make sure you can protect the right applications against any disasters and uh tovouch for this right we have a customer which is Moen that has been utilizing snapware practicing for last couple of releases for their VMware workloads that deploys SAP HANA databases and homegrown applications using our existing asymmetric activetechnology on A900 and A250 50 platform and very soon they're going to be upgrading their technology to 950.1 to be able to enjoy the power of symmetric activeas well. Moen has been a happy customer that has been able to protect their mission critical sand workloads using snapper active sync making sure there is no downtime and no data loss for their critical workloads uh at any time. This is a story in real where we are able to offer customers protection and it is not just moen but we have multiple such customers that are able to protect uh varied workloads varied applications using the snap interactive sync technology on the other hand right it's not just about granular protection like we said it's also about being able to offer infrastructure level continuous availability using metrocluster this is a comprehensive solution that can provide you unified protection across your SAN and NAS workload using a single pin of glass. It uh given the power of metrocluster and the fact that it has proven reliability and performance at scale, it is able to ensure that you have nearly zero risk in terms of data loss as well as downtime. And post finance as a customer can definitely vouch for the fact that they were able to install MetroCluster and then forget about it. Right? Once installed, the customer did not have to worry about whether their data was being replicated and how the protection was being managed. They were fully uh reliant on metrocluster to be able to protect their mission critical workloads. And they were happy to see how simple it was and cost effective it was for them to be able to protect using a single solution all their workloads and not have to worry about application level granularity. Post finance has been using metrocluster for a while now and has never faced any issues when it came to a man-made or a natural disaster. So this is a story of how metrocluster at an infrastructure level has helped a customer protect their workloads and it's not just one right across active sync and metrocluster we have multiple c we have multiple uh accounts and users utilizing our solutions to ensure business continuity for their workloads and use cases. Now at NetApp right it's not just about having solutions for continuous availability right we have an expansive portfolio that we started with uh in the initial part of our session and we definitely would want to tie it back and talk more about some of our other solutions and services that we are able to offer as uh we are able to offer to our customers so that they can protect their workloads and for that right we have blue XP disaster recovery and I'm going to have Anjeli talk about a little bit on how we can offer uh this as a service to help ensure uh your workloads are always protected. >> So wanted to right talk about our disaster recovery blue XP uhservice. uh again right you can protect like with the two running on the sides with the business continuity solution in uh in between uh but your two sides uh also alongside right many customers want to ensure that not only you have the business continuity but also the disaster recovery and among the third site and that's where the blue XV disaster recovery comes in uh it is a very simple uh lowcost and high performing disaster recovery as a service. Uh it is powered by industry you know known snap mirror again which is used by thousands of customers and it helps youknow with reduce your overall cost of ownership uh because we only charge for the protected data which is already kind of dduped and compressed and compacted versus you know having being charging for the number of the volumes. Uh we cover uh different scenarios uh today. uh one is from we help you protect from on-prem workloads running on the VMware environment uh for your different platforms uh to FSX for NetApp ontap uh and then second is we help you protect your workloads which are running from on-prem on the VMware to on-prem for VMware uh for the NFS as well as we recently introduced the support for VMFS workloads uh over the scuzzy and uh the front end fiber channel host access. So a very simple uh you know comprehensive that brings your you know makes your disaster recovery needs uh easy to operate and manage and providing your coverage whether you're looking to protect your data between onremise on proremise to cloud it brings youknow holistically together uh with that I would like to uh wrap up the session uh but we just want you know key takeaways that we want you to all have from today's session.is first thing you can tailor your disaster recovery strategy uh you know with all granular or infrastructure level business continuity solutions. So you have the choice you have the flexibility and as well as with all the flexible architecture to help suit your exact you know business needs uh whether it's in terms of load balancing or you know expanding it to thedisaster recovery. So it provides you both symmetric and asymmetric combinations as you heard from Nikita earlier as well as you know uniform and non-uniform post access. So you have the whole flexibility uh to design uh as you uh need and then lastly business continuity which means ensuring zero recovery point objective RPO and near zero recovery time objective. So we ensure that all our solutions on the business continuity are you know able to provide that so that you can use NetApp solutions and you know need you don't need to worry anything about you know or have your sleepless nights we as NetApp as has you covered your Michigan uh critical datas to have it up and running 24 by7 and 365 days a year uh we talked a lot about it in today's session so but please stay connected reach out to us you know reach out to me Nikita as well as through various you know forums as we has you know slowed on this slide and uh there are a lot of more information than what we shared in the session today u so you can avail of that and please you know thank you for listening for us today and uh hoping to you know uh hear from you uh
