  1. HP StorageWorks Multi-Site Replication Solution Putting information to work continuously: StorageWorks Continuity Solutions January, 2007

  2. Today’s discussion • Are we safe yet? • Costs and impact of downtime • HP StorageWorks for Continuity • HP StorageWorks Multi-Site Replication Solution • Customer case studies • Why HP • Next steps

  3. The pressure to mitigate business& IT risk seems to be increasing… Customers & service levels External & business • External threats seem more visible, frequent • New security risks emerge each month • Requirements grow for compliance & risk management to protect corporate reputation • Web-based business & demanding customers require better level of IT service • More applications & processes are becoming business-critical • Potential to use high availability as a differentiator Operational & technical • 24 x 7 global operations shrink the window for back-up & downtime • Mergers & IT consolidation put more pressure on centralized IT systems • Dynamic business & IT environment impacts continuity and IT processes more often

  4. Executives are askingtougher questions.. The past Today CEO Am I sure that my business can keep going in a crisis or emergency? Do we really need a disaster recovery plan? CIO Do we have service level agreements with our users? Are we building operational excellence into our IT service? IT Manager How can we get the right levels of security & availability in our new system from day one? If the system fails, how quickly can it recover? The past Today

  7. Financial performance Damaged reputation Productivity/ employees Impact of downtime Revenue:Direct loss, compensatory payment, lost future revenues, billing losses and investment losses $ Billions Exponential increase Productivity:Number employee x impacted x hours out x burdened hours = ? $ Impact Direct financial/ customer Damaged reputation: Customers, competitors gain advantage, suppliers, financial markets, business partners $ Millions Constant increase Time Minutes Days Downtime Financial performance:Revenue recognition, cash flow, credit rating, stock price, regulatory fines The indirect impact of downtime can be far more severe and unpredictable

  8. What is StorageWorks for Continuity? • It is a process of combining technology, solutions, & services that can be deployed to provide a full spectrum of protection for business continuance and availability Protecting the business starts with protecting its most valuable commodity – information.

Cost Clustering Higher Increased disaster tolerance & data availability Remote data replication Local data replication Two-stage backupand recovery Traditional backup Lower HP StorageWorks continuum for: Business Continuity & Availability Remote Data Replication Mission-critical support services Increasing availability Disaster tolerance Last Transaction Data protection and recovery Minutes Recovery Point Objective Data protection and recovery Hours Days Mission-critical support services Days Minutes Seconds “Instant” Hours Recovery Time Objective

  10. Replicating Data over Distance Choosing the right SAN Extension technology Global SecondaryData Center DR Site Regional < 500km PrimaryData Center Metro≈ 50km – 250 km • Redundant Data Centers are typically located to serve one of two purposes: • Within 50-250 km of the primary site to serve as a secondary data center • From 500 km to a global location to serve as a Disaster Recovery Site Local 1-2 km

  11. Servers XP/EVACA Deployment Scenario #1 Asynchronous Replication between Data Centers over FCIP • When the datacenter interconnect requirements are beyond metro and regional boundaries • Real-time replication of critical data to Disaster Recovery site • Any Distance – not latency constrained • Applications include remote vaulting, Storage to tape, and Asynchronous applications HP StorageWorks Continuous Access Software Servers GigE/IP WAN Cisco MDS 9500Multilayer Director Cisco MDS 9500Multilayer Director XP/EVACA

  12. Metro DWDM Deployment Scenario #2 Synchronous Replication between Data Centers • Typical deployment is within Metro regions and is ideal for synchronous apps • Provides a remote “mirror” of critical data • Allows very fast restart/recovery with “Near Zero” data loss – (RPO in milli seconds) XP/EVACA HP StorageWorks Continuous Access Software Intersite Networking (DWDM/CWDM) Cisco MDS 9500Multilayer Directorwith VSANs Enabled Servers • Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing DWDM provides high density, high bandwidth, low latency connectivity between Data Centers • Coarse Wave Division Multi-plexing (CWDM) - alternative method of implementing a multi-site replication solution over an optical MAN
