Webair Enhances Cloud-Based DR Solution With Zerto

Webair Internet Development, Inc., in managed cloud, colocation and managed solutions, announces the enhancement of its Cloud-based DR-as-a-Service (DRaaS) solution powered by Zerto, Inc., a provider of enterprise DR and BC software for virtualized data centers and cloud environments.

The Webair offering provides remote enterprise customers fast and efficient recovery and restoration of their data and applications, whether their workloads reside in their own data center or in Webair’s cloud, including healthcare organizations that require HIPAA-HITECH compliant solutions.

Webair’s DRaaS backed by Zerto is a VM-centric (VM-centric), hardware-agnostic solution that provides scalable replication with off-site backup. The solution enables customers to meet continuity and compliance requirements, providing differentiated service levels as well as a RPO of seconds and RTO of minutes.

Leveraging Zerto’s hypervisor-based data replication software, Webair provides customers with real-time monitoring of RTOs and RPOs that is easy to manage and set-up with just a few mouse clicks. Webair automates all possible tasks to ensure faster recovery and integrates with third-party services via APIs to automate any required changes or notifications.

“Webair has been providing DRaaS to enterprises, including healthcare, financial services and eCommerce firms, for years. With the addition of Zerto, we are now able to offer customers who cannot afford to place their digital assets in jeopardy under any circumstances an even more efficient, reliable solution to protect their data and applications, and mitigate vulnerability,” states Sagi Brody, CTO, Webair. “The reality is that power grid failures, extreme weather events and data loss are both unpredictable and inevitable, but customers’ critical assets can remain protected and they have options. Our DR solutions can be run for our customers on our own clouds, or for customers running VMware at their own location or a third-party data center; they can easily replicate to Webair in real-time.“

Utilizing Webair’s DRaaS backed by Zerto, customers have visibility into their DR environment, including replication monitoring and reporting, as well as the ability to set-up a VPN tunnel, Metro Ethernet, or Point-to-Point link for data replication. Clients also have complete access to their DR site during testing and failover. Additionally, customers can login and test their DR plans without impacting production. Webair also works with customers to build custom DR Run Books, which outline processes and step-by-step directions for organizational preparedness, escalation and system restoration, enabling businesses to recover from any outage or failure. Moreover, in addition to VM-to-VM replication, Webair also provides direct storage DR services, which work with all popular storage vendors and technologies. By enabling this integration, Webair manages clients’ VMware environment as well as any third-party storage services working alongside it.
