  • InMage Scout leverages the advantages of disk and Lun based data protection to provide application-aware recovery that can meet remote and/or local requirements. InMage Scout continuously captures data changes in real time as they occur and performs local backup or remote replication simultaneously with a single data stream. It offers instantaneous and granular recovery of data locally and enables push-button application-level failovers to remote sites to meet local backup and/or remote DR requirements, thus going above and beyond the protection offered by conventional replication backup and failover automation products alone.
  • AxiomONE MaxRep enables your organization to meet stringent disaster recovery needs, eliminate the impact of local backups, and manage application uptime to meet high availability requirements. AxiomONE MaxRep uses advanced technologies like Continuous Data Protection (CDP), Asynchronous Replication over IP, and WAN Optimization for disaster recovery of data as well as for backup purposes.
  • Worked on vContinuum: InMage vContinuum is an application aware and application consistent backup and DR solution for VMware vSphere (ESX and ESXi) servers as well as for physical servers. vContinuum protects virtual machines on your primary ESX/ESXi server as well as physical servers by replicating them to a secondary ESX/ESXi server and recovering them on the secondary ESX/ESXi server when needed. This is a better solution than using virtual machine snapshots at the hypervisor level as vContinuum utilizes Scout’s CDP technology and ensures that virtual machine protection is application aware. This results in the recovered virtual machines being application consistent, which is superior to being crash consistent. vContinuum not only captures all changes but also provides the ability to recover to any point time within the configured window of retention period.
  • Installation and Configuration of ESXi 5.0 on DELL PowerEdge T420.
  • Installation and Configuration of Virtual Center Server in a Virtual Machine.
  • Configured around 40 Virtual Machines on Dell PowerEdge T420 Servers.
  • Around Eight Windows Server 2008 along with SAP Business One application Physical Machines into Virtual Machines using vCenter Converter for Standalone.
  • Configured Resource pools to avoid CPU Contention and Memory over Commitment for Business-Critical Applications.
  • Configured Alarms, integrated with SNMP and SMTP to get notifications.
  • Configured VMware Data Recovery for Backing Up Virtual Machines and Host configuration.
