What Is VMware Site Recovery Manager?


VMware Site Recovery Manager™ is the industry-leading solution to enable application availability and mobility across sites in
private cloud environments. It is an automation software that integrates with an underlying replication technology to provide
policy-based management, non-disruptive testing and automated orchestration of recovery plans. This provides simple and
reliable mobility of virtual machines between sites with minimal or no downtime.

Identifying and Qualifying the Opportunity


OBJECTION RESPONSE

I can’t afford the storage • VMware vSphere Replication is bundled with vSphere Ess+ and higher editions and it is completely storage-
investments required for disaster agnostic, which means that no additional storage investments are required.
recovery • VMware Virtual SAN is a software-defined storage tier that leverages inexpensive server-side disks to create
shared storage, making it an ideal solution to reduce CaPeX at recovery sites.
• Site Recovery Manager integrates with vSphere Replication and Virtual SAN to deliver simple and automated
DR

I am already DR protected with • Site Recovery Manager does not replace a replication technology, it complements one by automating the
array-based replication testing and actual recovery processes, eliminating the need for manual steps
• Site Recovery Manager supports a broad range of array-based replication products offered by all major VMware
storage partners

I am evaluating stretched • Site Recovery Manager now integrates with supported stretched storage solutions:
clustering instead − For Site Recovery Manager users, this integration provides them with a replication option that enables
zero-downtime, zero-data-loss application mobility
− For stretched storage users, they get to experience the benefits of Site Recovery Manager, such as
centralized recovery plans, automated non-disruptive testing and orchestrated virtual machine recovery.
• The VMware Metro Storage Cluster (VMSC) implementation delivers VM downtime avoidance using vSphere
HA, which cannot deliver the advanced capabilities for DR that Site Recovery Manager can.

I am evaluating another host- • VMware vSphere Replication is the only hypervisor-based replication technology for vSphere. It delivers flexible,
based VM replication product reliable and cost-efficient replication. It is also bundled with vSphere at no cost.
• Host-based replication products have very shallow DR orchestration, if at all. Site Recovery Manager is the
industry-leading DR automation solution for vSphere.

I am evaluating application-level • Clustering solutions are application-specific; they create infrastructure silos and are difficult to scale. They are
mirroring / clustering instead also more expensive.
• Site Recovery Manager enables cost-effective, centralized protection that is scalable and applicable to all
virtualized applications.
