Post Description

VMware vSphere Replication is an extension to VMware vCenter Server that provides hypervisor-based virtual machine replication and recovery. vSphere Replication replaces storage-based replication. It protects virtual machines from partial or complete site failures by replicating the virtual machines from a primary site to a secondary site. vSphere Replication provides several benefits as compared to storage-based replication.
* Data protection at lower cost per virtual machine.
* A replication solution that allows flexibility in storage vendor selection at the primary and secondary sites.
* Overall lower cost per replication.

With vSphere Replication, you can replicate virtual machines from a primary datacenter to a secondary site quickly and efficiently. After you set up the replication infrastructure, you can choose the virtual machines to be replicated at a different recovery point objective (RPO). You can configure all vSphere Replication features in the vSphere Web Client. You monitor the status of a
replication through the replication management and monitoring dashboard.
