Challenges



bution

Challenges and Drivers

• Customers are interested in moving to IaaS and reduction of CAPex

– Moving to cloud can be a challenge

– Path to moving workloads to a provider is not always straight forward

• Partners are interested in onboarding customers in an easy manner

– Reduce complexity for the consumer

– Provide DR as a Service (DRaaS)

VIRTUALMACHINES

✓ Workload Mobility

✓ Disaster Recover

✓ Migration

Factors/Considerations



bution

Workload Mobility Option

• Cross vCenter vMotion

– Powerful Capabilities

– Has Bandwidth and Latency requirements

– Difficult to setup on multitenant clouds

– Not ideal for every use case

• vSphere Replication

– Can be used with most customers existing infrastructure and licensing

– vSphere to vSphere replication

– No built-in encryption

– Not fully integrated with default vCloudDirector install




bution

Disaster Recover Options

• vSphere Replication

– Can be used with most customers existing infrastructure and licensing

– vSphere to vSphere replication

– No built-in encryption

– Not fully integrated with default vCloudDirector install

• SRM

– Can be used for Disaster Recovery Migration and disaster.

– vSphere to vSphere

• Single Tenant




bution

Migration Options

• VMware Converter

– vSphere to vSphere

• Single Tenant

– Physical to vSphere

• vCloud Connector

– vCD based migration utility

– Not supported with newer version of vCloudDirector




bution

3rd Party ISV Options

• VMware supports 3rd party ISV solutions geared toward migration and DR use cases

• These options can be used for migration to cloud and DraaS with vCloud Director




bution

DR and Migration with vCloud Availability



bution

What is vCloud Availability for vCloud Director

16

Simple and Secure asynchronous replication and failover for vSphere

• Warm standby capacity on:

• VMware Cloud Provider

• Self-service protection, failover and failback workflows per VM

• 15 min – 24 hr. recovery point objective (RPO)

• Initial data seeding by shipping a disk

• Allow for the replication of running virtual machines

• Can be leveraged as a DR tool as well as for the migration of workloads

✓ On-Premises✓ vSphere Replication Appliance

Key Components




bution

Requirements and Components



bution

Service Provider – vCloud Director Dependencies

• vCloud Director Cells

– vCloud Director Portal

• Management interface

• vCloud Director Database

– MSSQL or Oracle Database

• Platform Service Controller

– Authentication

• Resource Groups

– vCenter – NSX Manager pairs

– Used for management of workloads




bution

Service Provider – vCloud Availability Dependencies

• Cloud Proxy Cells

– Provides secure tunnels for replicated data between on-premises and vCloud Director

– Similar to vCD cells, no front end

– Should be highly available

• RabbitMQ

– Provides messaging between vCloud Director and vSphere Replication Service

– Should be highly available

• Cassandra Database

– Stores replication meta data and configuration information

– Minimum of 3 nodes




bution

Service Provider – vCloud Availability Core Components

• vCloud Availability Portal

– Portal used for management of replicated workloads




bution

Service Provider Core Components

• vSphere Replication Cloud Service (vRCS)

– Tenant aware replication manager, provides API for vCAv

– Minimum of 2 for redundancy

• vSphere Replication Manager (vRM)

– Manages and monitors the replication process.

– One per Resource Group vCenter Server

• vSphere Replication Server (vRS)

– Receives and records delta information for replicated VMs

– Minimum of 2 for redundancy




bution

Service Provider Core Components

• vCloud Availability Installer

– Virtual appliance

– Uses the vcav-cli for installation of vCloudAvailability

– Day 2 Operations Scripts

• Replication and Snapshot Management

• Certificate Management




bution

Requirements and Considerations

• Platform Services Controller

– Needs to be part of a single domain on the SP side

• Cassandra cluster

– 3 nodes minimum

– Secure communication

• RabbitMQ

– Secure communication

– Must be same instance that is configured with vCloud Director

• Certificates

– 3rd Party certificates for Cloud Proxies, vCAv Portal




bution

Service Provider Version Compatibility

• vCloud Availability 1.0.1.2

– vCloud Director 8.10, 8.10.1, 8.20

– vCenter 6.0

• Due to differences between vSphere Replication version

– Cassandra 2.28

– RabbitMQ 3.4




bution

On-Premises Components

• vSphere Replication Server

– Receives and records delta information for replicated VMs

– For “from-cloud” replication:

• Delta information sent from provider ESXi host

• Then recorded by on-prem vRS

• NSX Standalone Edge (Optional)

– Can be used to provide L2 connectivity between On-prem and OrgVDC

• vRealize Orchestrator (Optional)

– Can be used to automate migration/DR plans




bution

Tenant Version Compatibility

• vCenter 6.0 and above

– vSphere Replication 6.0.x, 6.1.x, 6.5

• Failover, Failover Test

• Failback – Automatic and manual

• Multiple point-in-time replication

• vCenter 5.1 and vCenter 5.5u2

– vSphere Replication 5.8.x & 5.6.x

• Failback – Manual Only

• No Multiple point-in-time replication
