- 2. Agenda
- 3. What’s driving customers to migrate to Azure or BC/DR
- 4. Choice of tools for every stage and every requirement Goal is successful Azure migration & Disaster recovery: Pick the right tool for the job Data Migration Assistant (DMA) Azure Migrate SQL Server Migration Assistant (SSMA) Azure Security & Management (e.g., Blueprint, Security Center, Backup, Monitor, Azure Policy )Azure Database Migration Service Azure Site Recovery (ASR) Azure Data Box Azure Cost Management
- 5. Summarizing cloud migration strategies Redeploy as-is to cloud • Reduce Capex • Free up datacenter space • Quick cloud ROI IaaS Minimally alter to take better advantage of cloud • Faster, shorter, updates • Code portability • Greater cloud efficiency (resources, speed, cost) Containers PaaS Materially alter/decompose application to services • App scale and agility • Easier adoption of new cloud capabilities • Mix technology stacks PaaS Serverless Microservices New code written with cloud native approach • Accelerate innovation • Build apps faster • Reduce operational cost Description Drivers Technologies REHOST REFACTOR REARCHITECT REBUILD
- 6. Business Continuity Challenges Cost Monitoring Recovery Protecting Many Workloads Need to reduce the costs related to downtime Disaster recovery solutions with synchronous replication are expensive Some workloads that could benefit from protection go unprotected due to costs and complexity Constant monitoring of services can be challenging Manual recovery of the many virtual machines that compose services can be complex and time- consuming - procedures need to be documented and tested
- 7. Orchestrate the recovery of your apps for simplified disaster recovery Improve Recovery-Time-Objectives (RTO) and Recovery-Point-Objectives (RPO) for both planned and unplanned outages Achieve zero impact disaster recovery drills Minimize app errors and data loss with application consistent recovery points Replication for heterogeneous environments: Hyper-V, VMware, Cloud and physical Azure RECOVERY & PROTECT YOUR APPLICATIONS

- 17. MICROSOFT AZURE SITE RECOVERY Consistent Experience Centralized view of replication & recovery between on-premises locations, & between on-premises & Microsoft Azure. Streamlined Configuration Only 1 additional installation step – installation of Site Recovery agent on Hyper- V Hosts Quickly set up protection of on-premises clouds, with Microsoft Azure as a target. Support for Encryption of Data at Rest, along with flexible replication frequencies, additional recovery points & VSS-aware application consistent checkpoints. Network Mapping Enables the mapping of on-premises VM Networks into pre-created Microsoft Azure Virtual Networks Zero application data loss during migration Near zero application down time during migration
- 18. MICROSOFT AZURE SITE RECOVERY Recovery Plans Automate the orderly recovery into Microsoft Azure, in the event of a site outage at the primary datacenter. Support for Scripts and Manual Actions that require some form of human intervention during the execution of the Recovery Plan. Shutdown of VMs upon execution is in reverse order of recovery to ensure zero data loss. Flexible Failover & Failback Options Support for Test, Unplanned & Planned Failover into Microsoft Azure. Can be used to provide compliance assurance without impacting production workloads, and also as a mechanism to migrate into Microsoft Azure for longer term usage. Streamlined process for failback into on-premises environment.

- 21. ARCHITECTURE AZURE-TO-AZURE Replication process: 1. The Site Recovery Mobility service extension is automatically installed on the VM. 2. The extension registers the VM with Site Recovery. 3. Continuous replication begins for the VM. Disk writes are immediately transferred to the cache storage account in the source location. 4. Site Recovery processes the data in the cache, and sends it to the target storage account, or to the replica managed disks. 5. After the data is processed, crash-consistent recovery points are generated every five minutes. App-consistent recovery points are generated according to the setting specified in the replication policy.
- 22. ARCHITECTURE AZURE-TO-AZURE Background: This environment will consist of two Virtual Networks deployed to your Primary and Secondary site with an AD Domain, IIS Web Servers and Microsoft SQL Servers that you will configure into a SQL Always On Availability Group Goal using Azure BC DR: Your goal for this environment is to have the ability to have a one-click failover process using Azure Site Recovery in either direction. The users will have one URL that they will use to connect to your application regardless of where the application is running.
- 23. What does it do? o Easily discovery of on-premises VMs o Direct migration & test migrations o Visualize dependencies to create move groups o Insightful workload assessments: o Azure Suitable analysis “editable” o Right-sized Azure resources bases on utilization history o Estimated monthly run cost in Azure o Customize cost assessment – offers, workload uptime, Vm serie o Support for VMWare “Agentless” NEW Hyper-V o No Cost AZURE MIGRATE

- 28. Summary The ASR solution is not only one part of the DR/BC suite Classifying workloads based on RTO/RPO needs Azure Migrate bringing it all together in one portal from start to end Defining a process around Disaster Recovery Running DR drills at a regular cadence for compliance purposes Forecasts, analyzes and mitigates specific threat vectors for targeted divisions in the organization Concerns about security issues, like malware, ransomware, and intrusion, are increasing. These security issues can be costly, in terms of both money and data & outage = Business continuity
