For many years mirroring of production data for Disaster Recovery (DR) purposes has been available for both mainframe and open systems computing environments. Unfortunately, due to the cost and complexity of these types of solutions, they have mostly been deployed in larger organizations with larger IT budgets. However, the demand for cost-effective disaster recovery solutions has never been higher, as organizations realize the value of their stored data and the high costs associated with any type of downtime. In fact, many organizations today have established a DR strategy or requirement, but have not actually implemented a solution due to budgetary or other restrictions. Fortunately, a new generation of affordable data mirroring solutions has emerged that brings sophisticated DR capabilities to virtually any size organization.
