Real-Time Replication • Replication Engine • No backup window • Continuous replication transmits changes as they occur rather than requiring downtime to scan for changes • Less data loss (superior RPO) • The faster changes are transmitted off the source, the less risk there is of data loss • WAN efficient • Byte-level replication sends less than block-level • Configurable compression levels • Intelligent buffering and resynchronization for high-latency and network outage scenarios Remote Office Consolidation Disaster Recovery Remote Availability Remote Office Headquarters DRLocation
