In the first blog post we covered installing a Zerto Virtual Manager (ZVM), if you missed it check it out here: Installing Zerto’s Virtual Replication in Minutes – Step 1 The second step is to deploy the Virtual Replication Appliances (VRAs) onto each ESXi or Hyper-V host that you are going to replicate VMs from […]
Airlines, take notes from GitLab. This is how you do a disaster. We’ve been saying this for years, disasters are gonna happen. Not a week goes by without news of some airline outage, ransomware taking down a hospital or power failure taking down a major website. This week saw (at least) two. Delta’s outage and GitLab’s […]

Standing in their way […]
On Alton Brown’s cooking show, he used to abhor a unitasker – a tool used for only one thing. They clutter the cabinets and are useful only in the rare instance that you need to slice an egg or store half an onion. Similarly, a unitasking product in tech is annoying. They clutter your IT […]
By Keith Taylor, Technology Evangelist at Zerto Your disaster recovery plan consists of more than just how you’re going to recover your systems and applications. All too often, it can be easy to overlook these seemingly less significant preparations as the focus tends to be on ensuring there is a solution, or combination of solutions, […]
By Joshua Stenhouse, Technology Evangelist at Zerto When using synchronous replication, a Recovery Point Objective (RPO) of zero only applies to disk writes and only if the disaster requires recovery to the most recent point in time. An RPO of zero on disk writes does not capture any transactions in-flight such as those in the memory of […]

How Two Days of Paper Record-Keeping Was Enough to Drive a Community Hospital to Search for a Better Business Continuity Solution By Rob Strechay, Vice President of Product, Zerto Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery (BC/DR) strategy is often little thought of until a forcing function—be it natural or man-made—puts a renewed focus on this mission-critical […]
When evaluating different BC/DR solutions one important feature that users often look for is point in time recovery. The ability to recover to previous points in time is crucial in being able to recover from not only data center-wide issues, such as power loss or hardware failure, but logical failures, such as a database corruption, […]

I know what you’re thinking….”I hear this all the time, and WE’VE been protected against a disaster for YEARS!” Well, I am glad you have taken steps towards trying to cover all your bases by putting some kind of […]
Overview In the event of a disaster that disrupts your business, the time it takes to recover your systems may be the difference between thousands or millions of dollars of lost revenue and productivity. In some cases, disruptions may even affect emergency services or utilities necessary for our health and well-being. Recovering quickly is crucial […]
What Is DRaaS? Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) is one deployment method for disaster recovery. It used to involve bringing a datacenter to you on the back of a large truck and uploading your data to it. Old-fashioned as that sounds, this cumbersome and time-consuming process was once the gold standard for disaster recovery […]
Data Everywhere Business continuity is an area of increasing complexity in the current multi-cloud IT paradigm. In the old days, we used backups to protect against ‘localized’, limited-impact data loss, like a single system crash, and small-scale data loss. On the other hand, disaster recovery is a set of plans and technical capabilities that help […]
