definitions of services Remote Vaulting: the process of transferring data, usually for the purpose of archiving or logging, to a remote site Remote Back-Up: data transfer over communications line and memorization over tape or disk in a remote site Synchronous Disk Mirroring: data recovery strategy that takes a disk or a set disks and synchronously mirrors it/them over high performance communication lines. Any write to a disk on one side will result in a write on the other. The local write will not return until the acknowledgement of the remote write is successful Asynchronous Disk Mirroring: data recovery strategy that takes a disk or a set disks and asynchronously (periodically, or triggered by a particular event) mirrors it/them over high performance communication lines Storage on Demand: storage capacity in a remote site available by a client (customer) through communication lines
