Hyper Converged SRM Disaster Recovery Solution

What is disaster recovery

Disaster recovery system refers to the establishment of two or more IT systems with the same functions in different places far apart, which can mutually monitor the health status and switch functions. When one system stops working due to an accident (such as fire and earthquake), the whole application system can be switched to the other one so that the system can continue to work. Disaster recovery is an integral part of the high availability technology of the system. The disaster recovery system focuses on handling the impact of external environment on the system, especially the impact of catastrophic events on the whole IT nodes, and provides node-level system recovery.

Introduction to SRM disaster recovery

SRM technology adopts two independent virtual clusters in different places to asynchronously replicate the VM configuration and storage data from the production site to the backup site. When the production site fails, the business system can be switched to the backup site within minutes through a one-click switchover.

Based on SRM technology, the UIS hyper converged infrastructure enables minute-level RPO and RTO data center reliability solutions. The SRM disaster recovery feature is now integrated into the UIS feature enhancement package, which can theoretically provide SRM disaster recovery for an unlimited number of VMs according to the physical CPU permissions.

SRM technical benefits

Case

XXX Health Commission, as the regulatory body of the medical industry, has been committed to improving the level of information management. Its core business systems mainly include cloud hospitals for graded diagnosis, medical treatment combination information platform. According to laws and regulations, the core business system recover time objective (RTO) in the medical industry needs to be limited to 30 minutes. The current single-cluster deployment mode has potential dangers and cannot guarantee data reliability and core business continuity.

Customers' voice: H3C SRM disaster recovery solution is smart and reliable, helping the Health Commission to successfully complete the disaster recovery compliance construction. In several simulated failure drills, the business system could be switched to the backup site within a few minutes. The whole process only requires one person to perform switchover with one click, and it does not need a lot of manual operations. The dual protection of data multi-copy mechanism and cross-cluster disaster recovery also improves the data high reliability. We hope that in future cooperation, more excellent IT solutions will be introduced to the Health Commission!
