Why Backup and DR in the Cloud?

Cloud Service Engagement Gartner

Backup on the Cloud

Backups - Traditional vs. Cloud AWS Backup, Archival & DR Tools DR – Traditional vs. AWS Solutions HA Using AWS Solutions Q&A

Agenda

Confidential. Property of 2nd Watch, Inc. 10

Long/slow recovery time

Low durability (higher probability for data loss)

What’s wrong with Traditional Backups?

Confidential. Property of 2nd Watch, Inc. 11

Requires Tape Museums Expensive Tech Refresh Disaster Recovery– Complex and highly cost-prohibitive

What’s wrong with Traditional Backups? (Cont.)

Confidential. Property of 2nd Watch, Inc. 12

Eleven 9s (that’s 99.999999999%) of durability (S3/Glacier)

Seamless integration with existing AWS infrastructure Lifecycle Management built in via “Lifecycle Policies”

What makes AWS better than Traditional Solutions?

13

Numerous options for transferring data in/out and syncing

The typical reasons for using AWS apply (e.g. Reduce CapEx, Reduce TCO, industry compliances)

Affordable and manageable DR with “Pilot Light”

What makes AWS better than Traditional Solutions? (Cont.)

data sets)

Amazon S3 – Simple Storage Service

Durable and low cost (1GB < $0.10 per month)

Unlimited number of objects and volume

Backup from any system directly to S3 buckets via HTTP/HTTPS– Create scripts using PowerShell, Perl, Python…

– Numerous solutions for data copy and synch

Amazon S3 – Simple Storage Service (cont.)

Easily create lifecycle rules− Delete or archive to Glacier− Single rule for the bucket or multiple based on object prefix

Security− Control access thru policies and ACLs− Auditable access− Encryption in flight and at rest (SSL & SSE)− Versioning in case of accidental

deletion

Amazon Glacier – Infinite Archival Storage

• Secure and Cost effective Offsite data archiving

• Tape Replacement for backup and recovery

• Long term digital preservation for historical and digital information

20

EBS Snapshots

“SAN like snapshots” of EBS storage allow recovery to a point in time – replicated across the entire region (3+ AZ/datacenters)

Auto-scaling and scripting allow backup server to be fully cost optimized

Example: 2W Backup Server < $1 per month

Quickly migrate large amounts of data in/out of AWS– Seeding initial datasets– Copying offsite backups into S3, EBS, Glacier– Retrieval of offsite backups and datasets

AWS Import/Export

Storage Gateway

Cloud backed storage running as an on premise software appliance

Utilizes durable Amazon S3 for primary storage and EBS Snapshots

22

Confidential. Property of 2nd Watch, Inc. 23

Storage Gateway – Cached or Stored

Gateway-Cached• Frequently accessed data is

cached on premise• Cost savings on storage• Mount volumes up to 32TB• With up to 150 TBs total

storage

Gateway-Stored• Low-latency access to all

your data• Asynchronous backup to S3

as EBS Snapshots• Mount volumes up to 1TB• Up to 12TBs of total storage

Average fully managed costs of DR > $1 per GB of protected data

Recovering from backups can take days Backup tapes add risk and time to recovery– Do you have all the tapes you need– Are the resources available to do the restorations

Disaster Recovery

Confidential. Property of 2nd Watch, Inc. 24

Did you know?– Businesses spend over 80% of their IT budget on keeping

the lights on

If you have an outage will it be a disaster?

Disaster Recovery on AWS

Classes of RTOs

Critical – Real-time availability or near real-time (minutes) – Tier 0 infrastructure, critical apps

Major – Applications to run the business (hours) – Tier 1 infrastructure and apps

Minor – Applications that can withstand a longer downtime (hours - days)

AWS Solution

• High Availability or Warm Standby

• Pilot Light DR in AWS

• Backup and Recovery in AWS

A word on High Availability on AWS Plan for failure at any level

Services within a Datacenter (AZs) can fail

Regions are N+2 (minimum)

Reserve capacity (the other side of Reserved Instances)

Use AWS Services that scale across AZs

− VPC, S3, ELB, RDS, ...

Chaos Monkey – Now Available!

HA Example

HA at each tier Can lose entire

datacenter and maintain production load

Auto-scaling at web and API tier to support dynamic site load

High Data security requirements – HA at IDS, Log Mgmt. and auditing tiers

Advantages of a Pilot Light DR Scenario

Warm standby for the price of cold storage− Or Less!

Super fast recovery time− Entire recovery process could be 1-3 hours

Data replication can keep critical systems in sync

Tip: include full domain controller to ensure all accounts are replicated and can be used at time of event for definitive source.
