OneCloud Insight

Assessment & Planning Tool

Disaster recovery has been a challenge for IT organizations for decades, with much of that challenge stemming from the cost and complexity of the various solutions. Planning for a DR solution is too often a mystery, and cost equations can be especially complicated when you consider leveraging the public cloud as your DR site. With the financial and business agility potential associated with leveraging the public cloud as a DR site, together with the requirement for businesses to be better prepared for disruptions, it’s become more and more a business imperative for IT organizations to deliver such a solution.

OneCloud Recovery (OCR) has been built from the ground up to automate and cost-optimize the use of Amazon Web Services (AWS), the industry-leading public cloud, as a DR site for a company’s virtualized infrastructure. Even as AWS infrastructure adoption continues to grow globally at an exponential rate, most companies are only beginning to explore the public cloud’s potential. Understanding the requirements and investments needed to execute on a hybrid cloud DR strategy remain unclear and complicated. To help companies address these challenges and capitalize on the public cloud potential for their business, OneCloud Software offers OneCloud Insight. A lightweight tool that deploys in just minutes, OneCloud Insight auto-discovers your virtual infrastructure environment and enables you to start modeling DR scenarios based on user-defined Recovery Point Objectives (RPOs). For each user-defined scenario, OneCloud Insight highlights the full solution costs, inclusive of OCR software as well as all AWS infrastructure expenses, in addition to bandwidth requirements needed to meet target RPOs, and much more.

Auto Discovery of Virtualized Infrastructure

OneCloud Insight installs in minutes and then performs a simple, non-intrusive discovery of your virtual infrastructure, including a read-only data collection of server names, OS, CPU, memory, and storage. This data is then displayed via the OneCloud Insight Viewer where you can begin to model DR scenarios.

Modeling DR Scenarios

Find what fits your needs and your budget. By simply pointing and clicking on which VMs you’d like to protect and at what protection level, you can easily see whether or not you have the network capacity to meet the defined scenario. You also have the option to drill down into the network details to apply more granular controls. Start small and plan for the future.

Confirmation of DR Requirements & Budget

Before you make ANY investment in your DR strategy, OneCloud Insight calculates the bandwidth required to meet target RPO/RTOs and highlights for you the underlying OCR licensing and AWS infrastructure costs. You get a complete view of the technical and financial solution requirements in less than 15 minutes.

The OCI assessment tool breaks down the total costs for each DR scenario modeled, prior to spending a single cent on software or infrastructure.

OneCloud Insight takes the guesswork out of your DR planning. After completing your assessment, you will have the required information needed to effectively plan your DR strategy, based on the application RPO/RTO levels desired to support your business effectively, and at a cost that is 50-75% less than traditional DR solutions.
