Features

Pillar’s EDP suite can support all of your replication and continuous data protection requirements across multiple applications and multiple heterogeneous storage arrays.

Supports any-to-any replication among multiple vendor storage systems.

Source and target storage systems can be from different vendors so you can preserve your existing storage investment. You can also deploy cost-effective storage at secondary sites to control storage replication costs.

Our advanced architecture enables multiple modes of bidirectional replication. This allows you to enable synchronous, near synchronous, or asynchronous data copies.

Variable levels of Recovery Point Objectives (RPO) can be defined for individual applications (Exchange / Oracle Financials / SQL) based on your business requirements. The system dynamically adapts to changes in available bandwidth and I/O workload.

Leverages both IP and Fibre Channel networks, allowing for local and long-distance data replication.

Pillar’s EDP suite provides a Fibre Channel to IP connection, mitigating the need for additional edge connection and protocol conversion hardware.

Incorporates intelligent bandwidth conservation techniques to reduce the amount of data sent over the network. Application-aware and storage-aware algorithms are used to conserve bandwidth better than traditional compression techniques, resulting in 7-12 times compression on transferred blocks.Incorporates intelligent bandwidth conservation techniques to reduce the amount of data sent over the network.

Allows customers to recover to any point in time on target sites. This is especially important in rolling disaster situations where replicated corruption events can lead to un-recoverable data.

Has no performance impact on applications, due to its out-of-band appliance model deployment.

Maintains data integrity and write-order fidelity despite the failure of hosts, storage, and WAN connections. This reduces the Recovery Time Objective (RTO) for critical data to minutes instead of hours or days, thereby avoiding unforeseen corruption issues that can cause missed RTO windows.

Direct read/write access to a secondary site allows immediate access to replicated data without first requiring an intermediate or additional copy. This supports robust Disaster Recovery (DR) testing, failover, and fail-back capabilities to reduce management and operational costs over competing solutions.
