Continuous Data Protection for DVR-like Rollback Snapshots and Clones Creates copies like time-lapse photographs Continuous Data Protection Change-based VIDEO CAMERA with DVR-like roll back capabilities Either space efficient changebased snapshots for backup offloading Or full copies or clones for test and development with minimal production impact Journal every change made and set the window for the amount of time to record 3

Recover Point Components and Topology EMC Application servers Layer 2 Fibre Channel SAN IBM HDS LSI HP Heterogeneous storage RecoverPoint appliances Fibre Channel/ WAN Application servers Accesses data that needs to be replicated Heterogeneous storage Source or target for replicated data RecoverPoint appliance (RPA) Connects to LAN and Fibre Channel (FC)/WAN for replication management and replicating data over FC/IP Connects to Layer 2 FC SAN for storage access RecoverPoint appliance cluster A group of inter-linked RPAs, working together closely, to provide replication services RPAs in a RecoverPoint cluster are called nodes Host, Fabric, or EMC Storage splitter WAN bandwidth management Reduce WAN bandwidth by up to 90% through deduplication, compression, and write-folding 4

RecoverPoint/CDP Roll back production applications to any point in time RecoverPoint write splitter Intercepts all server writes (block-level) Resides on the VNX series array (or optionally on host or Virtual Machine) iscsi SAN Array-based write splitter runs on VNX series, no host agent required FC SAN EMC RecoverPoint RecoverPoint Appliance Runs RecoverPoint software, offloads replication processing for better scale and performance Performs protection and recovery for VNX Unified block storage Handles monitoring, management, and control Attached to FC for storage access or can be directly attached to FC ports on VNX series Maintains write-order fidelity Journal Tracks all data changes to every protected LUN Utilizes bookmarks for application-aware recovery 5

RecoverPoint/Local Protection Process Continuous Data Protection (CDP) 1. Data is split by the VNX splitter and sent to the RecoverPoint appliance 2. VNX splitter 3. Writes are acknowledged back from the RecoverPoint appliance 4. The appliance writes data to the journal volume, along with time stamp and application-specific bookmarks / A / C / B r A r B r C Production volumes Replica volumes Journal volume 5. Write-order-consistent data is distributed to the replica volumes 7

RecoverPoint/Remote Protection Process Continuous Remote Replication (CRR) 1. Production Data sent to storage and split by embedded VNX splitter 3. Writes are acknowledged back from the RecoverPoint appliance 2. VNX splitter 6. Data is received, uncompressed, sequenced, and checksummed 7. Data is written to the journal volume / A / C / B Local site 4. Appliance functions Fibre Channel- IP conversion Deduplication Data reduction and compression Monitoring and management 5. Data is sequenced, checksummed, compressed, and replicated to the remote RecoverPoint appliances over IP or SAN r A r B Remote site r C 8. Consistent data is distributed to the remote volumes Journal volume 8

Dynamic Sync to Async Mode Change for Best Protection & Performance Automatically switch from sync to async based on bandwidth or latency degradation Minimize bandwidth requirements for remote replication Maintain performance and protection during I/O spikes Fully integrated with vcenter SRM to automate failover New replication flexibility for EMC and non-emc arrays I/O burst impacts performance or protection Mode change maintains performance and protection Bandwidth Utilization Source 6:00AM 5:59AM Target 10

Dynamic Switching Between Synchronous and Asynchronous Set in a policy for each consistency group Switch based on latency Synchronous replication Switch based on production throughput Throttle production application 11

Journaling for Application-Aware Recovery Journal includes data plus metadata Time/date Identifies the time image was saved Bookmarks: System-generated group bookmarks (e.g., failover snapshot) User-generated bookmarks Other EMC product bookmarks (e.g., EMC Replication Manager) System-event-generated bookmarks Microsoft SQL Server (VDI) Microsoft Exchange (VSS) 12

Understanding Data Consistency Grouping for a Consistent View Allows application recovery to be tiered by service level Multiple volumes per group Mixed recovery point objectives within same infrastructure OE Group 1 CRR Provides independent replication controls Recover by group, locally or remotely Start/stop by group Enables grouping of optimization CRM SCM CDP CDP Group 2 CRR CRR Importance Resource usage E-mail Group 3 CRR Recovery point and recovery time objectives 13
