  1. Protect Your Business and Simplify IT with Symantec and VMware Presenter, Title, Company Date

  2. Agenda • Business continuity challenges • VMware + Symantec • Joint solutions for SMBs • The products behind the partnership • Proven Results Page 2

  3. Top IT Priorities for SMBs Q. Which of the following initiatives are likely to be your IT organization’s top technology priorities over the next 12 months? Upgrade BC/DR capabilities Data center/server consolidation Maintain or implement virtualization Business intelligence and decision-support tools Upgrade our security Mobile/tablet apps Implement/expand collaboration (1) Source: Forrsights Budgets And Priorities Tracker Survey, Q4 2011 Page 3

  4. Business Continuity Challenges • Recovering from everyday problems • Keeping business applications up and running • Preparing for major outages and disasters Dependent on manual processes • Dealing with limited resources Page 4

  5. Protect Your Business and Simplify IT Implement business continuity and disaster recovery capabilities Consolidate servers Maintain or implement virtualization Page 5

  6. Protect Your Business and Simplify IT The leading virtualization, availability and management platform The leading backup and recovery solutions + A practical, affordable approach to keep your business running Page 6

  7. Solutions for Business Continuity Multi-Site DR Enhance your DR capabilities with full recovery in case of catastrophic disaster Application Availability Improve uptime by keeping your core business applications up and running Local Recovery Get started by protecting your important business information Page 7

  8. Local Recovery Challenges Solution Value A simple approach to protect your business from every-day failures. • Convert backup to virtual and recover from a standby virtual machine • Perform simple and flexible backups across physical and virtual machines • Enable live migration to new hardware with zero downtime How do you keep information and applications available to your customers and employees? • Recover quickly from hardware failure • Gain flexibility in backup and recovery of systems and files • Eliminate downtime for system maintenance • Simplify your environment Page 8

  9. Getting Started Convert to Virtual (P2V) Outcomes • Simplify and consolidate infrastructure • Simplify provisioning • Leverage VMware platform for availability • Convert your backups to functional virtual machines • Enables warm-standby for failover • Eliminates reliance on tape Backup Exec 2012 Server Page 9

  10. Flexible Recovery • Unified backup and recovery across physical and virtual machines • Recover an entire system or an individual file • Automatically detect and backup new virtual machines • De-duplicate data to minimize storage requirements Backup Exec 2012 Server + Virtual Agent Single-pass Backup of Virtual Systems Applications running on VMware 1 2 Backup Storage Page 10

  11. Eliminate Need for Planned Downtime • Server Maintenance • VMware Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS) • Migrate running VMs to other servers in the pool • Automatically distribute workloads for optimal performance • Storage Maintenance • VMware Storage vMotion • Migrate VM disks to other storage targets without disruption Page 11

  12. Application Availability Challenges Solution Value Automate recovery of your applications in a virtual environment • VMware HA automatically reboots a virtual machine in case of equipment failure • Symantec ApplicationHA monitors application status and works with VMware HA to restart the application How can you keep applications up and running for your customers and employees? • Prevent users from experiencing downtime during hardware failure • Minimize disruption from failure of an application • Employ a simple cost-effective solution Page 12

  13. Application Aware High Availability Protect against hardware, network & storage connectivity failures Resource Pool Protect against application failures vSphere vSphere VMware HA Symantec ApplicationHA X Resource Pool vSphere vSphere X Page 13

  14. Multi-Site DR Challenges Solution Value Make DR attainable for your business • VMware vSphere and Site Recovery Manager (SRM) simplify DR and enable non-destructive testing of the DR plan • Symantec ApplicationHA works with SRM to restart applications • Consolidation savings can fund DR project • Your trusted partner can help you identify options for a DR site If you have a major outage, how can you restore systems and applications quickly, with minimal data loss? • Traditional DR is expensive and complex • You may not have a DR remote site • Trucking your tapes off-site is not the answer • Need an affordable approach Page 14

  15. Key Features of Virtualization for Disaster Recovery • Encapsulation • All information about a system is stored as data on disk • Entire systems can be protected with Backup Exec • Hardware-Independence • Reliably recover a virtual machine to any hardware • Enable waterfalling of equipment to recovery site Consolidation • Reduced hardware requirements at production and DR site • Can use higher consolidation ratios at DR site Page 15

  19. Proven Customer Success “We have trusted Backup Exec to backup our data for several years and the transition from a physical server infrastructure to [VMware] infrastructure didn’t change our choice in a data protection solution. Symantec’s V-Ray technology embedded in Backup Exec allowed us to easily expand to a virtual environment and feel confident in our decision. I’m confident, based on my testing, that Backup Exec gives me the ability to recover both physical and virtual systems in case of a catastrophe.” — Jason Drake, Director of Infrastructure and Security, Premiere Global Sports.
