HyperReplication is a core technology for remote DR and backup.
It supports the following replication modes:
Synchronous remote replication
In this mode, data is synchronized in real time to achieve full protection for data consistency, minimizing data loss in the event of a disaster.
Asynchronous remote replication
In this mode, data is synchronized periodically to minimize service performance deterioration caused by the latency of long-distance data transmission.
Benefits
Table 1-1 lists the benefits of the HyperReplication feature.
Table 1-1 Benefits of the HyperReplication featureFunction | Purpose | Benefit |
|---|
Remote backup and recovery | To recover service data using backup data in the remote storage system after the service data becomes unusable. | This function prevents damage caused by data loss in the case that data at the primary site becomes unusable. |
Continuous support for services | To quickly switch service data from the primary site to the secondary site, protecting service continuity. | This function prevents damage caused by a service interruption upon a failure at the primary site. |
DR | To recover data at the primary site using backup data at the secondary site in the event of a disaster. | This function prevents the damage caused by service data loss or a long recovery duration upon a disaster. |
Note 1: A primary site is a production center that includes the primary storage system, application servers, and links. Note 2: A secondary site is a backup center that includes the secondary storage system, application servers, and links. Note 3: Unless otherwise specified, hosts mentioned in this document refer to application servers |
