The replication method is an approach to extract data from the source system and create a copy for data recovery purposes. There are different replication methods available to store a copy of data as per the storage type for business process continuation. Replications can be implemented using the following methods:
- Array-based replication: In this, built-in software automatically replicates data. However, both the source and destination storage arrays should be compatible and homogeneous to replicate data. A storage array contains multiple storage disks in a rack.
Large enterprises use array-based replication due to the ease of deployment and the reduction in the compute power host system. You can choose array-based replication products such as HP Storage, EMC SAN Copy, and NetApp SnapMirror.
- Network-based replication: This can copy data between a different kind of heterogeneous storage array. It uses an additional switch or appliance between incompatible storage...
