Continuous replication has protected critical servers and supports seamless disaster recovery drills

Some features that I personally feel can be improved are more simplified monitoring and reporting. As I previously mentioned, the console shows the replication status. If it had more detailed dashboards or built-in reports for DR readiness, it would make it easier for the teams to track everything in one place. Another improvement would be cost visibility and optimization guidance in optimizing the cost and also giving us visibility of it. Because the staging resources and replication storage are running continuously, it would be very helpful for organizations and users if AWS provided clearer cost insights, recommendations, and remediations to optimize the DR environment. It would also be useful if AWS added more automation options for application-level recovery, such as easier ways to handle IP changes, domain name system (DNS) updates, or application dependencies during failover. Additionally, we can simplify the setup and configuration process. For someone new to the service, understanding the staging settings, launch templates, and networking configurations can take some time. Setup simplicity and more detailed monitoring and alerting features would be beneficial. If we could add that, we can easily track the replication health, lag, and potential issues. Instead of relying on other additional tools for monitoring and alerting features, we can rely on AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery itself.

Flexible, allowing us to provide NAS and SAN solutions with the same hardware

According to my experience, for certain HPC environments, we encounter certain Memory/CPU limitations when we have a large number of IOPS. This is why, in order to support such loads, several cabs are required in parallel, complicating the configuration and administration. Another handicap is the management of the LACP that, when we are talking about environments with less than 20 calculation nodes, may not balance correctly despite setting the RR option.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Since deploying AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery, we have mostly seen an improvement in uptime, which contributes to reducing downtime."

"The most valuable aspect of CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is its instant block replication feature. This allows us to perform live block verification and eliminates the need to concern ourselves with recovery point objectives. This capability is particularly advantageous for critical workloads."

"Technical support has been very good. They usually respond quickly to our requests."

"The initial setup is pretty straightforward, it's not complex."

"We went from an organization with minimal to no disaster recovery, and I was able to spin up the disaster recovery environment with AWS rather quickly and meet business requirements."

"It offers seamless integration with services like ACL, EKS, and Fargate for deploying containerized applications."

"AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery is a reliable and cost-effective solution for business continuity."

"For regular backup and restore solutions, this product is fine."

More AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery pros

"You have the ability to connect a third-party storage back end, EMC VMAX in our case, and have all NetApp functionalities available."

"We are very happy with this solution as it brings us the scalability and stability of Data Ontap and the versatility of NetApp solutions in order to provide different types of services for our customers' requirements (NAS, CIFS, FC / FCoE)."

Cons

"CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is charging clients $20 to do the DR backups. It is an expensive solution."

"Since I have to view everything on the console, the previous application solutions like IBM and Sanavi showed the RPO and RTO status directly. In AWS Disaster Recovery Service, these details are not available, making it difficult to check my replication status."

"I would like to see better support for creating and working with archives. Right now, it is difficult and painful to do."

"Sometimes, one of the servers will get behind for one reason or another, and it does not notify us when that happens."

"I have not seen any areas that need improvement at this time."

"Definitely there should be better logging. From a customer perspective I would like to see more logs on what is happening. If there is an issue, I would like to know what the problem is. Right now, we have to depend on the support of the vendor to check and let us know, because we don't have access to a lot of logging information."

"The user interface, customer support, and the recovery time for the current customer query could use improvement."

"An improved AWS pricing model is needed."

More AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery cons

"We have had some performance issues."

"According to my experience, for certain HPC environments, we encounter certain Memory/CPU limitations when we have a large number of IOPS."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I feel the product's pricing is a good value. Licensing is pretty straightforward."

"It has saved us money from having to buy hardware for disaster recovery."

"We were happy with the pricing that they gave us."

"Where the price adds up, there are CloudEndure licenses, then there is the AWS environment, and finally, there is the AWS storage, so cumulatively, it adds up."

"CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is charging clients $20 to do the DR backups. It is an expensive solution."

"The pricing is better now that they had come out with the Tier 2 which replicates a little less often. In comparison to what I would have been spending with any other type of solution, the pricing is fair."

"I rate the price of CloudEndure Disaster Recovery a six out of ten."

"They license us on a per machine basis. We have a set number of machines, which we have licensed."
