Supporting requirements for disaster recovery requires more than backup of application data; infrastructure configuration changes at the production site must also be propagated to the backup site so that it can support the services required to access that data. But the manual processes required to regularly and accurately replicate server, networking, and storage infrastructure are time-consuming and prone to errors, and validating recovery at the backup site is often difficult and costly.
With the LiquidIQ unified computing system, data center operators can drive down the cost and inefficiencies of managing disaster recovery backup while ensuring lock-step infrastructure configuration changes between production and backup sites.
A fully integrated "data center in a chassis", LiquidIQ provides unified software-based control of servers, storage, and networking resources. All application infrastructure configuration information is encapsulated in templates, stored in a secure database, and can be easily backed up and restored. By simplifying the process, LiquidIQ enables configuration changes to be made in lock-step so operators can ensure that services will be readily available in the event of a disaster. The benefits of rapid, template-based provisioning also be applied to run non-mission critical applications on backup site infrastructure during standby periods.
