Tintri today announced the general availability of Tintri Synchronous Replication, a part of Tintri’s Data Protection and Disaster Recovery solution. The solution offers fully integrated primary and secondary storage-including all the capabilities of virtualization-aware storage (VAS) with compelling economics.
The solution makes it easy to maintain seamless operation and minimize recovery time and point objectives (RTPO) for mission critical applications. Tintri also integrates with backup solutions such as Veeam and Commvault while using any secondary storage, and will soon also offer native protection of Tintri snapshots from on-premises to public cloud storage through an S3 Connector.
With Tintri’s snapshot-based space saving features, the DP / DR solution offers compelling economics both in terms of efficiency and OpEx savings, even compared with secondary storage solutions. And Tintri’s solution provides valuable features that are not available from other providers, including full control and visibility of latency across host, network and storage for both primary and secondary storage and newly released Tintri Synchronous Replication.
Capabilities of DP / DR solution includes:
- Snapshots as first line of defense. Tintri provides space-efficient snapshots that take only seconds to create-storing only changed data blocks, with no performance impact. Default snapshot schedules protect every VM automatically; custom schedules allow users to meet specific data protection needs.
- Fast recovery. With Tintri you can restore at the VM, vDisk, folder or file level with a single click. And Tintri provides a test environment with local clones and replica snapshots at the secondary site without impacting production.
- Flexible protection options. Recovery point objectives (RPO) of 1 minute, 15 minutes, or other desired levels can be set per-VM for asynchronous replication. And with Synchronous Replication, Tintri achieves Zero RPO and near-zero recovery time objectives (RTO) with manual or planned failovers.
- Data security. Encryption of data at rest with AES-256 bit encryption offers real-time DP with no impact on application performance. Integration with Gemalto’s Safenet KeySecure via the key management interoperability protocol (KMIP) lets you cryptographically lock arrays and conform to the highest security standards and regulatory requirements.
