Understanding vRanger’s Agentless Architecture Simple, scalable backup and recovery for VMware and Hyper-V and physical Windows servers Agentless architecture and cost-effective pricing Catalog search and file level restore from both virtual and physical backups Integrated VMware VM replication provides disaster recovery for critical virtual applications vRanger vRanger Backup Repositories Primary Data Center Physical Server Physical Server VM WAN or LAN Secondary Data Center Replicated VMware VMs VM X X
4
VMware & Hyper-V Backup, Recovery, and Replication Speed — Patented Active Block Mapping with Changed Block Tracking reduce size, network payload, storage space and backup and restore times Scalability — Parallel job execution and distributed architecture completes operations fast. Dynamic resource governing ensures operations don’t impact the performance of production networks Ease of Use — Integrated Catalog provides indexed search and fast restores of individual files VMware Ready – vRanger is VMware Ready™
5
Agentless architecture Scalability through distributed clients – Eliminates extra hops by sending the data directly from the source to the repository ` ` vRanger Server Repository Direct-to-Target Architecture VM
6
Agentless Architecture Direct-to-Target Architecture Advantages Eliminates I/O bottlenecks during backup and restore operations Much faster backups and restores Enables parallel data protection operations for improved scalability Parallel backup, replication, and recovery operations can be completed in a fraction of the time required by other virtual and physical solutions Supports the use of lightweight Linux virtual appliances to distribute VMware backup workloads across the environment
7
Feature: Resource Management Scalability Automatically manages backup performance based on available resources
8
Resource Governing Advantages Scalability vRanger Resource Governing ensures production application performance is not impacted during backup and recovery operations Organizations can balance data protection SLAs with production performance goals vRanger performance can be dialed up or down in real-time
9
Ease of Use Feature: Integrated Backup Catalog Native cataloging Keyword & wildcard search through multiple repositories One click restore for files and folders
10
Ease of Use Integrated Catalog Advantages It’s 3 AM – where’s your backup? vRanger Integrated Catalog allows search operations (including wildcards) to locate individual files from virtual and physical backupsIntegrated Catalog Locating backups faster dramatically reduces recovery times
11
Feature: Active Block Mapping Backup/Restore Speed & Size Only active blocks are read and written Improves backup, restore, and replication speed Reduces backup storage Optionally eliminates Windows pagefiles and hibernation files from backups for improved backup, restore, and replication performance Active Block Unallocated Block Disk LayoutBlocks read and written
12
vRanger Deduplication Support Patented Active Block Mapping (ABM) reduces vRanger backup data streams and backup storage requirements by up to 30%. Patented Active Block Mapping (ABM) Dell DR4100 offers a simple and cost-effective disk backup and recovery solution featuring deduplication, replication and capacity expansion. vRanger has been certified by Dell for usage with DR4100 disk-based appliance (RDA support coming soon) Dell DR4100 EMC Data Domain Boost integration reduces network load, improves backup performance, and reduces backup storage requirements EMC Data Domain Boost Target-side deduplication integration and options
13
What’s New in vRanger 7.0 Windows Hyper-V Server 2012 / 2012 R2 agentless backup support VMware vSphere / ESXi 5.5 support Windows 2012 R2 / 8.1 platform support Active-Block Mapping (ABM) job options to skip Windows pagefiles and hibernation files Scalability improvements for VMware inventory Streamlined Installer 64-bit vRanger console / server / virtual appliance Restore jobs prioritized in the job queue
14
vRanger FeatureCustomer Benefits 1. Auto discovery of newly deployed VMs; Deep VMware and Hyper-V integration Eliminates manual updates to backup processes Ensures newly created VMs are backed up and can be recovered No system reboots required 2. Indexed catalog search Reduces the time needed to find files for restore Reduces restore time 3. Integrated VMware replication Cost effective & efficient disaster recovery for select VMware VMs 4. Scalable architecture Virtual Appliance delivers outstanding scalability Resource governing ensures virtual application performance is not degraded 5. Virtual and physical Windows server backup One simple GUI provides VMware, Hyper-V, and Windows physical server protection Image-based backup/restore Reduced cost by eliminating the need for legacy physical backup solutions Key vRanger Differentiators
15
Automated backup of newly deployed VMs A global information technology company hosts hundreds of their customers’ virtualized applications and used to manually install agents on thousands of VMs. This took up most of the VMware administrator’s time They were experiencing high levels of customer recovery failures as new VMs were missed and were being backed up Organizational Problem vRanger automatically detects and protects all customer VMs ensuring they don’t lose key customers using their hosting service Return on Investment Admins aren’t constantly trying to fix failed customer recoveries and can now restore key VMs and files – customer satisfaction has risen significantly End User Benefit Admins are spending a fraction of the time deploying and managing backup, replication, and restore operations resulting in huge productivity savings
16
Ease of use - Catalog search A large state university experienced frequent VM outages and was often unable to restore VMware hosts or VMs Deploying their legacy solution to protect VMware was a full time job and they still couldn’t find and restore individual files fast enough to meet their restore time objectives (RTO) Organizational Problem VMware admin team manager told us “We use vRanger every single day for all kinds of recoveries. We can find anything in seconds and restore with a single click.” The university is also using vRanger’s EMC Data Domain Boost integration and seeing huge saving in backup time and storage footprint Return on Investment The university now has VMware administrators that sleep at night File level restores can be performed in only a few minutes End User Benefit
17
Integrated VM replication A major bank has the need to replicate key VMware VMs for disaster recovery Their agent-based, legacy DP solution did not have the needed replication capabilities and was far too expensive Organizational Problem Return on Investment The bank has decreased replication times by 67% with vRanger’s built-in VMware replication, and at a cost that’s far less than hybrid solutions The restore process at the bank improved from many hours to just minutes with vRanger End User Benefit The bank could not solve their VMware backup/restore and disaster recovery requirements with one easy-to-use product
18
Scalable architecture Customers can’t safely scale their VMware backup, replication, and restore operations as their virtual infrastructures grow. Agent-based legacy solutions are too expensive to use in large virtual infrastructures Many VMware customers experience application performance problems as their backup, replication, and restore operations expand to protect new hosts and VMs Organizational Problem vRanger’s job parallelism, resource governing, and virtual appliance features allow vRanger to perform well and safely distribute workloads even in the largest VMware virtual environments – without ruining application performance Return on Investment vRanger’s scalable features can be deployed and managed in minutes vRanger adjusts resource usage limits as needed, in real-time, and can automatically react to changing VMware workloads End User Benefit
19
Virtual and physical Windows server backup Many VMware customers use multiple solutions to backup VMware/Hyper-V and physical Windows server environments. This results in higher software license costs and added complexity Organizational Problem vRanger’s physical agent delivers superior imaged-based backup and restore for physical Windows servers at an affordable price Return on Investment IT personnel no longer need to administer and manage multiple backup products to protect their virtual and physical environments End User Benefit
