Storage with VPLEX & CISCO (for HA/DR)

·         High Availability Design Principles
o   Intra-site replication solution for High Availability for Servers and quick Disaster recovery options.
o   Eliminate single point of failure (redundant configurations)
  The duplication of components to ensure that should a primary resource fail, a secondary resources can take over its function
o   Guarantee 100% uptime
 Implementation intended to ensure a 100% of operational and business continuity
o   Fault tolerance
  The ability to continue properly when a hardware or software fault or failure occurs. Designed for reliability by building multiples of critical components like controllers, switches, connectivity,  adapters, memory and disk drives.
o   DR Replication
provides Storage Level Replication and able to recover the data as per the agreed RPO/RTO
