ContinuousDataReplicator

Delivers Unified Data Management and Administration
Your replication strategy should compliment and integrate with your data protection strategy—not be yet another point product that you have to integrate into the mix. QiNetix ContinuousDataReplicator offers a simple, unified interface that lets you easily create, track, administer and manage the replication, backup and snapshot management process. With centralized policy management and scheduling, you can define recovery points within any replica. From these recovery points, you can schedule backups or mount shares to allow end users to browse and restore.

Ensures Application Data Integrity through Multiple Recovery Points
It's only useful to replicate your live application data if the replica is in a state that is understood by the application. With CDR Recovery Points, you can capture your replica at consistent points in time, instilling the confidence you need that data recovery works right the first time, every time.

Keeps Point-in-Time Replicas Consistent with Your Applications: Windows File System and Exchange, and SQL Databases
CDR's Recovery Point technology ensures point-in-time replicas that are consistent with your applications. To do this, CDR leverages QSnap's application-awareness of snapshot technology. Through the QiNetix CommCell Console, you can schedule or create on-demand Recovery Points. During the process, the application is quiecsed and all internal buffers are flushed to disk—and captured by CDR. Once complete, a consistency point is marked in the replication log and sent to the target host with the normal replication data stream. On the target server, the replication log is replayed to the file system. When the consistency point is encountered, the QSnap software creates a space-efficient, point-in-time snapshot of replica volume. With Recovery Points, you can manage multiple point-in-time snapshots of your critical application data.

Takes the "Remote" Out of Your Remote Office Data
With QiNetix ContinuousDataReplicator, you no longer need to manage separate data protection operations at remote locations. You can easily create backup policies for remote office data while setting up the replication pairs and the associated recovery points. CDR is fully integrated with Galaxy backup and recovery software to provide the full compliment of tiered data protection.

Granularly Recovers Data if You Lose It
Your email system just became infected with a virus and you need to roll back. Your SQL database is corrupted, and Mark from accounting would love to get back that spreadsheet that he didn't really mean to delete before going to lunch. With QiNetix ContinuousDataReplicator, you can breathe easily. Through the CommCell browser, simply view the available point-in-time replicas and select the Exchange or SQL database just before the virus struck. As for Mark's spreadsheet, simply mount the point-in-time replica as a common Internet file system (CIFS) share and Mark can retrieve the missing file himself.

Delivers Smart Synchronization Replica Management
As long as there have been networks, there have been network disruptions. In any replication environment, it is difficult to keep the replica in sync with the primary source during a network outage due to constant primary production system changes. Typically after a disruption, replication software products conduct lengthy, resource intensive file-by-file-to-original comparisons to determine and copy over the changed files. When a disruption occurs, you need to be able to quickly bring your replica back online and know that the replica reflects each and every change that occurred during the disruption.

ContinuousDataReplicator's Smart Synchronization capability maintains replica integrity throughout a network disruption between source and target machines. When the network resumes, Smart Synchronization quickly determines which replication set files were modified during the outage and need to be sent to the replica. CDR brings your replica back online and up to date quickly and easily.

Schedules Bandwidth Throttling
It's clear that the need to protect remote office data is imperative. But often you don't have IT budget for a separate, dedicated network. You must define your replication infrastructure with this in mind: balance data protection needs with the available budget to get the job done.

With ContinuousDataReplicator, you can leverage your existing network infrastructure by scheduling bandwidth throttling. CDR lets you match replication needs to bandwidth, letting you scale back during busy business hours or while critical business functions are occurring. On the other hand, you can automatically increase replication bandwidth during evening or overnight hours when resources are underused.
