Many large enterprises are moving important applications from traditional physical servers to virtualized environments, such as VMware vSphere in order to take advantage of key benefits such as configuration flexibility, data and application mobility, and efficient use of IT resources.
Realizing these benefits with business critical applications, such as SQL Server or SAP can pose several challenges. Because these applications need high availability and disaster recovery protection, the move to a virtual environment can mean adding cost and complexity and limiting the use of important VMware features. This paper explains these challenges and highlights six key facts you should know about HA protection in VMware vSphere environments that can save you money.
In this guide you will learn about Disaster Recovery planning with Zerto and its impact on business continuity.
In today’s always-on, information-driven business environment, business continuity depends completely on IT infrastructures that are up and running 24/7. Being prepared for any data related disaster – whether natural or man-made – is key to avoiding costly downtime and data loss.
- The cost and business impact of downtime and data loss can be immense- See how to greatly mitigate downtime and data loss with proper DR planning, while achieving RTO’s of minutes and RPO’s of seconds- Data loss is not only caused by natural disasters, power outages, hardware failure and user errors, but more and more by man-made disasters such as software problems and cyber security attacks- Zerto’s DR solutions are applicable for both on-premise and cloud (DRaaS) virtual environments- Having a plan and process in place will help you mitigate the impact of an outage on your business
Download this guide to gain insights into the challenges, needs, strategies, and solutions for disaster recovery and business continuity, especially in modern, virtualized environments and the public cloud.
The True Cost of Disruption is Massive.
When measuring the total cost of downtime, immediate service disruption is only the beginning. In a landscape of evolving threats, comprehensive protection is more important than ever for modern digital businesses. Traditional backup solutions no longer meet the needs of today’s businesses for disaster recovery.
However, not every organization has the means to build their own datacenter or hire full-time DR specialists. Even for those that can, there are still benefits to replacing the direct and indirect costs of secondary sites with a predictable monthly expense for a specialized service.
For many organizations, DRaaS is an ideal solution. Our DRaaS 101 eBook describes in detail the benefits of DRaaS and the wide variety of models available through Zerto’s DRaaS providers—including an option that’s right for you.Download this DRaaS 101 eBook now—it’s free!
Since 2016, many users have turned to Apache Guacamole, a community-driven open-source remote desktop platform that is free for anyone to use and if your organization is technically savvy. The source code is publicly available to compile and build.
However, if you’d like software that’s ready to deploy for the enterprise and comes with responsive, professional support, Keeper Connection Manager (KCM) can provide an affordable way to get all the benefits of Apache Guacamole.
KCM provides users with a secure and reliable way to remotely connect to their machines using Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), Virtual Network Computing (VNC), Secure Shell (SSH) and other common protocols. Moreover, KCM is backed by a responsive team, including the original creators of Apache Guacamole, ensuring expert assistance is always available.
Let’s dive into the importance and challenges of remote access below.

A Thin Client is a compact, secure desktop computer that operates using a Thin Client Operating System. Unlike traditional PCs, Thin Clients do not store sensitive data or applications locally. Instead, all data and applications are securely hosted in an on-premises or cloud-based data center, seamlessly integrating with your Windows or SaaS environment. This architecture enhances security by minimizing the risk of data breaches, theft, or unauthorized access.
One of the key advantages of Thin Clients is their efficiency. Compared to conventional desktop PCs, Thin Clients are significantly smaller, consume less power, and generate minimal noise. Their streamlined design not only reduces the physical footprint in the workspace but also lowers energy costs, making them an environmentally friendly alternative. Additionally, Thin Clients require less maintenance and fewer hardware upgrades, translating to long-term cost savings for organizations.
Thin Clients also simplify IT management. With centralized control, IT teams can efficiently monitor, update, and troubleshoot devices across multiple locations without the need for on-site maintenance. This reduces IT overhead, allowing staff to focus on strategic initiatives rather than time-consuming hardware support.
So why choose a Thin Client? With enhanced security, reduced costs, simplified IT management, and greater efficiency, Thin Clients are an intelligent choice for organizations looking to modernize their infrastructure while improving productivity and security.
