Veeam Backup and Replication v11 Continuous Data Protection (CDP)
Continuous data protection (CDP) is a new feature in Veeam Backup & Replication v11 that allows essentially having near-zero RPO or Restore Point Objective values for tier 1 workloads. This is important as it helps businesses avoid data loss as a result of a workload failure. This is well-suited for that business-critical SQL Server, Application server, or Web server. It provides many benefits to environments when compared to traditional backups and replication. These benefits include:
No VM Snapshots – I/O filter certified by VMware
No workload or hardware dependency – replicate any to any
No distance limits and reduced bandwidth requirements
No babysitting with policy-based protection
No need for a worker appliance on each host in the cluster
No deployment guesswork with the built-in assistant
