Drum roll please!
We are super excited to announce the availability of the preview bits of
Azure Site Recovery
(ASR)
which enables you to replicate Hyper-V VMs to Microsoft Azure for business continuity and disaster recovery purposes.
You can now protect, replicate, and failover VMs directly to Microsoft Azure – our guarantee remains that whether you enable Disaster Recovery across On-Premise Enterprise Private Clouds or directly to Azure, your virtualized workloads will be recovered
accurately
,
consistently
,
with
minimal downtime and with minimal data loss.
ASR supports Automated Protection and Replication of VMs, customizable Recovery Plans that enable One-Click Recovery, No-Impact Recovery Plan Testing (ensures that you meet your Audit and Compliance requirements), and best-in-class Security and Privacy features that offer maximum resilience to your business critical applications. All this with minimal cost and without the need to invest in a recovery datacenter. To know more about this announcement and what we have enabled in the Preview, check out
