16 DISASTER RECOVERY GUIDE – POWERED BY ZERTO SECTION 3 Zerto IT Resilience Platform™ When production is virtualized, there is an obvious gap in the data protection strategy as it is usually based on older technologies that have reliance on physical asset limitations. Zerto aligns production and disaster recovery strategies with a hypervisor- based replication IT Resilience Platform™. In this section we will explain how the Zerto technology works and the advantages it offers. Zerto IT Resilience Platform™ Zerto delivers IT Resilience with continuous availability, workload mobility and multi-cloud agility through a single IT Resilience Platform™ that's simple to use and built for scale.

Recovery can be from seconds ago not the last backup or snapshot that could be 4 hours of 1 day. Recovery can be a site, app, VMs or individual files • Recovery is not just about data, this is about your key business services.
