In the era of cloud computing, how should enterprises plan for backup and disaster recovery?

The multi-cloud deployment model is an IT operation model that combines multiple public clouds or private clouds, and it is also the most commonly deployed IT environment for enterprises today. Large enterprises and medium and large enterprises love to use multi-cloud to manage their data assets. Small and medium-sized enterprises yearning for cloud computing often use virtualization or virtual all-in-one machines to achieve the same purpose.

The vast majority of businesses (79%) choose cloud solutions to host their email systems. About two-thirds use cloud storage for files (68%) and office software such as word processors and spreadsheets (61%). More than half use the cloud for security software (59%).

Beyond that, businesses also use the cloud to access more advanced end-user software applications such as finance/accounting (48%), customer relationship management (27%) and enterprise resource planning (24%). Among the most complex cloud services, more than half (59%) of businesses using the cloud report using secure software applications, 47% host enterprise databases in the cloud, and one in five (21%) use a computing Hosting environment, testing or deployment.

With its excellent data processing speed and performance, cloud computing helps enterprises effectively improve production efficiency. Based on the elastic nature of the cloud, enterprises only need to pay for the cloud services they use, reducing infrastructure costs and avoiding resource shortages or vacant waste. The use of cloud computing can also solve the downtime loss caused by the update of traditional IT infrastructure.

Today's cloud management service providers can arrange and combine a variety of rich cloud service solutions according to the needs of enterprises, but the problem of data security still exists!

Such as lightning, fire, earthquake, tsunami and other force majeure natural disasters, human misoperations lead to unexpected errors in data transmission, security configuration errors, malicious virus intrusion, hardware damage, network and power outages, etc. It will still cause interruption of business continuity and bring losses to the enterprise.

In China's cloud computing market in 2023, traditional backup and disaster recovery solutions are obviously no longer suitable for cloud companies. This is because:

  1. Traditional backup and disaster recovery solutions are costly and time-consuming

  2. The traditional backup and disaster recovery scheme is complicated to drill, and it is difficult to ensure the success rate of the disaster recovery end taking over the production end when a disaster occurs

  3. Today's enterprises generally use multi-cloud to manage enterprise assets, and cross-architecture disaster recovery technology is more difficult

  4. Driver adaptation obstacles from cloud to IDC

As a result, more and more enterprises and cloud management service providers have begun to explore cloud backup disaster recovery solutions.

HyperBDR cloud disaster recovery solution is based on cloud native, can connect to more than 20+ cloud platform API interfaces, supports highly automated heterogeneous platform disaster recovery solutions, and can freely choose the target cloud platform for backup, so that enterprise assets will not be lost by a single cloud service provider Locked, the scheme has higher flexibility and stronger security. Enterprises can use the HyperBDR cloud disaster recovery solution to achieve disaster recovery in various business scenarios according to their needs, including: traditional IDC physical machines, virtualization to the cloud; cloud to traditional IDC and public cloud, private cloud and dedicated cloud mutual disaster recovery and other scenarios.

Its self-developed Boot in Cloud™ technology enables intelligent adaptation of the driver without pre-starting the instance, one-click cloud pulls up the business system to an available state, and directly restores to the operating system login page, achieving a minute-level RTO. Block-level CDP disaster recovery protection is not limited to the operating system and file system, and one-click quick recovery ensures business continuity and high availability.

The HyperBDR cloud disaster recovery solution can also automatically generate snapshots at specified time points according to settings, and the number of snapshots can be set arbitrarily. You can choose a snapshot at a certain point in time for quick recovery, restore the business system data and status at the corresponding time, and address and solve the logic errors that occur in the business system to ensure the success of the disaster recovery end taking over the production end when a disaster occurs. Daily business testing can be provided , security incidents and other process backtracking. Make full use of the characteristics of cloud elasticity to improve the utilization rate of resources on the enterprise disaster recovery side.

In terms of cost, the HyperBDR cloud disaster recovery solution uses object storage as the target-side storage medium, stores the data slices of the whole machine in object storage, and only combines block data during recovery. This measure reduces storage costs to a very low level. The annual fee is only 1.3 yuan/GB, which is only equivalent to 2% of the storage cost of traditional disaster recovery.

The cloud computing market in 2023 will surely develop more vigorously. Enterprises will become more and more proficient in using cloud computing services, and more and more enterprises will join the cloud family. Cost reduction is the main driver for enterprises to migrate to the cloud. Looking for an inclusive cloud-native backup and disaster recovery solution like HyperBDR cloud disaster recovery, which is more cost-effective, scalable, and data security is more secure. And this will also become a major advantage in the competition of enterprises on the cloud.
