Optimizing Replication
(Data Compression)
Plenty of bandwidth
(initially)
Initial replication
– raw feed
RAW replication feed
overwhelmed network until
compression turned on

RaaS Console
(in Virtual Center)
Rate of change = RPO

18. @Bluelock | #BLRaaS | www.bluelock.com
Optimizing Replication
(Ephemeral Data)
Plenty of bandwidth
(initially)
Nightly maintenance degrades
RPO and Recovery Point options
(due to burst of ephemeral data)

19. @Bluelock | #BLRaaS | www.bluelock.com
RPO Fluctuation
Nightly maintenance degrades
RPO and Recovery Point options
(due to burst of ephemeral data)
Initial seeding of
new VMs,
creates bursts

20. @Bluelock | #BLRaaS | www.bluelock.com
Optimizing the Solution
Exclude swap and
temp disks from
replication to reduce
maintenance burst
Private, Paygo, Flexible
replication circuit eliminates
paying for in/out Internet
bandwidth and only for high
bandwidth when needed
Burstable bandwith makes
adding/seeding VMs to
protection simple without
impacting RTO
