Earlier this year, we introduced a tech preview of NetApp® BlueXP™ disaster recovery for on-premises to on-premises VMware VMFS (block) support. Following the success of this preview, we are excited to announce that this service is now fully available for NetApp ASA storage systems. This high-performance file system is optimized for storing block-based data, supporting a wide range of high-performance applications. Specifically, this announcement highlights its capability for disaster recovery of VMware virtual machine VMFS datastores. This enhancement broadens the disaster recovery use cases and storage systems already offered by the BlueXP service.
What does this mean for you? Let’s explore:
On-premises to On-premises VMFS disaster recovery
- Low-cost SaaS-delivered disaster recovery for VMFS (block—based) datastores
- Leverages proven SnapMirror technology currently used for other disaster recovery use cases
- Support for NetApp ASA systems (block-optimized) for your VMware VMFS datastores
