Assured Data Protection's New Zerto-Powered Service: Revolutionizing Disaster Recovery

In today's fast-paced digital landscape, the stakes for IT resiliency have never been higher. Organizations are continuously seeking robust disaster recovery (DR) solutions that not only protect their data but also ensure rapid recovery in the event of an unforeseen calamity. Enter Assured Data Protection, a notable leader in managed IT services, which recently unveiled a groundbreaking DR service powered by Zerto, a subsidiary of Hewlett Packard Enterprise. This new offering aims to cater to the unique needs of businesses operating in diverse hypervisor environments, particularly those relying on VMware technology.

An Innovative Approach to Disaster Recovery

Assured's new Zerto-powered service comes at a time when enterprises are reevaluating their VMware engagements, particularly in light of increasing licensing costs and shifting support models following Broadcom's acquisition of VMware. Tony Giannini, Vice President of Global Innovation at Assured Data Protection, highlighted the urgency that many organizations feel: though they may have several months left on their VMware contracts, they urgently require a reliable DR solution. Through the partnership with Zerto, Assured can offer quick recovery point objectives (RPOs) and recovery time objectives (RTOs) essential for protecting mission-critical applications.

The heart of this service lies in Zerto's host-based replication technology, which provides near-continuous data protection, allowing for nearly instantaneous data restoration with minimal disruption. This technological prowess ensures that regardless of the hardware constituents in a company's infrastructure, businesses can achieve the agility they need to maintain operations.

Flexibility and Cost Efficiency Tailored to Business Needs

One of the standout features of this new DR service is its flexibility. Organizations can choose to maintain short- or long-term commitments with VMware, and if they decide to transition to alternative platforms such as Nutanix, the service offers a seamless migration path. Not only does this empower companies to scale their operations without overhauling entire systems, but it also allows IT departments to align recovery strategies based on specific application needs. Assured’s approach customizes protection levels to ensure organizations only invest in the level of coverage that is essential for their business priorities, mitigating costs in areas where aggressive recovery isn't necessary.

A Comprehensive Framework for Resilience

By integrating Zerto’s capabilities with their existing solutions, Assured Data Protection has fortified its disaster recovery and cyber resilience offerings. This cohesive strategy enables enterprises to mix and match protection levels based on the criticality of applications, thus achieving optimal recovery strategies while keeping operational costs under control. For critical workloads, customers can leverage the Zerto solution to secure minimal RPOs and rapid RTOs. Meanwhile, for less urgent recovery needs, Assured's Rubrik-based solutions can provide unwavering protection without incurring prohibitive costs.

Conclusion: Availability and Future Prospects

The Zerto-powered DR service is now available, allowing organizations the opportunity to take advantage of this cutting-edge technology.
