SRM Architecture & Features: The Road Ahead

VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager has proven to be a efficient and resilient way for CIOs to ensure their company's business operations can recover quickly from a site disaster. SRM continues to innovate and set the standard for automating disaster recovery in a verifiable manner. With SRM today, you can create a runbook which specifies in detail your organization's DR plan that defines how virtual machines and their configurations will failover. You can test the automated failover scenarios without disrupting the production environment. This talk details SRM's current architecture and provides a preview of how it is evolving to handle the scale and demands of today's dynamic data center. We will talk about lessons learned from the implementation of Site Recovery Manager as well as discuss possible future architectural and feature directions to help customers address their business needs. We will also cover future extensibility frameworks that will help VMware's storage partners, business partners, service providers and customers customize the product to tailor their needs.
