Business Continuity
Improve Business Continuity with Virtualization
While disasters and unplanned downtime get the big headlines, planned downtime for hardware maintenance and backups is the cause of most service interruptions. VMware's server, desktop and application virtualization products let you eliminate planned downtime, ensure data protection, deliver high availability and be better prepared for disaster recovery. Virtualize your datacenter and make it easier to deploy:
- Data protection, including non-disruptive automated backup and restore processes
- High availability through reduced planned and unplanned downtime
- Disaster recovery with hardware independent recovery
See why our customers trust
VMware vSphere to deploy business continuity to the world's most demanding datacenters.
Protect your Business-Critical IT Infrastructure
Get Full Data Protection for your IT Infrastructure
Simplify backup and recovery of your data and systems with virtualization. Easily recover important data within your recovery time objectives using your existing backup tools and methodologies. Benefit from a simpler data protection plan, encompassing all systems and applications and leveraging the benefits of a virtualized datacenter.
Eliminate Planned and Unplanned Downtime
Make sure your applications have the highest level of availability with built-in service-levels that are easier and more cost effective than traditional solutions. The live migration of virtual machines eliminates the need for planned downtime, allowing IT to perform maintenance on physical servers anytime, without user or service disruption.
Take advantage of
VMware vSphere's Fault Tolerance (FT) feature, protecting against physical failures, including network card failures, storage path failures, and other hardware failures.
Build Reliable and Efficient Disaster Recovery Plans
Eliminate the cost and unpredictability of traditional disaster recovery solutions by taking advantage of the inherent flexibility of a 100% virtualized datacenter. Utilize this foundation to build highly effective disaster recovery plans and test your plan in a non-disruptive manner—eliminating the issue of failure due to hardware differences between the primary and backup datacenters.
