(upbeat music) Hello, I'm Phoebe Goh. Let's look at BlueXP Disaster Recovery. This awesome service helps you set up VMware disaster recovery relationships, and non-disruptively test failover whether you're on-premises or in the cloud. Let's jump in. Here's BlueXP, a control plan for your unified data storage on-premises and in the cloud. In the menu, under protection, you'll see the BlueXP Disaster Recovery Service. We've added two VMware sites to Disaster Recovery. One of these is vCenter on-premises, and the other is running in AWS on VMware Cloud for AWS. BlueXP DR helps us group virtual machines into resource groups. These can be logical, VMs at a specific site, or functional, in that they could choose the boot order of those VMs when they come up at the destination. In this case, we're choosing all of the VMs, Linux, and Windows, in this site. Next, we'll create a replication plan. And in order to do this, we need to give it a name and choose the source and the target fee center. In this case, we're going to choose a source that is on-premises, and a destination that is in AWS. We then select the resource groups of virtual machines that we want to protect. We can also use this wizard to specify how resources from the source environment map to the destination cluster, including compute, virtual networks, virtual machines, and data stores. We can change these settings if we need to tweak how the destination is going to look. BlueXP Disaster recovery can be used for cloud migration, but in this case, we'll choose a replication recurrence which keeps the destination and the source in sync. From BlueXP, I can do all sorts of operations, but today we are going to non-disruptively test disaster recovery failover. We can choose the most recent or previous snapshot, which could be really useful in the event of a ransomware attack. BlueXP walks through all the steps it's automating for us behind the scenes. So let's go into our VMware software-defined data center in AWS. And you can see that these seven test virtual machines have appeared and are online-ready for any other DR tests that we want to do. How easy was that? In just a few clicks, we could set up disaster recovery from our VMware environment and test failover so I know I'm protected in the event of a real disaster. And all of this is built into BlueXP disaster recovery. (upbeat music)
