Demo 2: Human Error Application Protection

DATA CORRUPTION


Human Error is the Biggest Cause of IT Disasters

Survey analysis of key factors that

cause major SME IT incidents and service failures

Human Error 47%

Server Failure 29%

KEY FACTORS CAUSING FAILURE


Application Recovery

•  Virtual Protection Groups (VPG)

•  RTO and RPO •  Consistency •  Boot Order •  Recovery Points


Choose Your Recovery Point •  You are not limited to recovering from just the latest instance •  Choose from recovery points prior to the disaster, allowing

peace of mind that you’ll bring back your workload from a non-corrupted state


HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?


Ways to Think About the Cost of Recovery

•  Infrastructure cost •  Value of application uptime

Annual Revenue $/Day $/Week $/Month

$5 Million $14K $96K $417K

$50 Million $140K $960K $4.2M

$100 Million $280 K $1.9M $8.4M


Comparing RaaS to Existing DR Solutions

Cold Site Comparison RTO RPO Relative Cost

Traditional “Cold site” Approach days 24 hours 25%

Bluelock RaaS (In-Cloud or To-Cloud) ≤8 hours ≤4 hours 35%

Way Better! Similar

Warm Site Comparison RTO RPO Relative Cost

Traditional “Warm site” Approach ≤4 hours 30 minutes 95%

Bluelock 4004 VDC (To-Cloud) ≤4 hours 30 minutes 40%

Similar Way Better!

HOW DO I GET STARTED?


STEPS TO PROTECT YOUR APPLICATION


Zero Footprint, Extremely Efficient

•  Replicates at the hypervisor level: –  No agent installation or

rebooting of applications to get up and running

–  No rework of the application required

Don’t force your app to fit the DR. Choose DR that fits the app.


Assess Your Apps

•  How to determine which ones need protection, what level

•  App dependencies •  How to size:

– CPU, Storage – Bandwidth & rate of change

•  Runbook creation – What software does vs what you do
