挑战
Dairylea's aging infrastructure consisted of three HP EVA storage arrays for their VMware environment, running over 100 applications critical to Dairylea's business units. While the production environment was stable and meeting the requirements, backup and disaster recovery had been a significant challenge for many years. Continued weekly backup failures and the recognition that recovery from a disaster could take over 48 hours compelled the IT team to seek a replacement to their overall backup and DR approach. Jeremy Wheeler, Dairylea's Innovation Architect, and his team spent months looking for a cost-effective solution that would allow the company to better protect critical data and deliver RPOS of less than 24 hours and RTOs of less than 4 hours in the event of a significant outage or disaster in the primary environment. Given a limited staff, Dairylea needed to ensure that the solution would be simple to manage, and provide a straightforward failover process in the event of a real outage. Given cost constraints, Dairylea needed the solution to be bandwidth efficient and deliver replication without impacting users of the production application environment.
关于客户
Dairylea Cooperative Inc. is the largest milk-marketing organization in the Northeastern United States. The cooperative represents more than 2000 dairy farms that sell more than 6.0 billion pounds of raw milk annually. With more than 100 years of service, Dairylea is a collection of more than a dozen business units, offering everything from laboratory testing to Farm Insurance. With a diverse range of members and offerings, IT is at the heart of Dairylea's success. The cooperative has two IT sites: Syracuse Primary data center and Ithaca DR site 60 miles away.
解决方案
Dairylea replaced SAN environments at two sites with four OmniCube CN-3000s in its production environment in Syracuse, New York and two redundant OmniCube CN-3000s in its backup data center 60 miles away in Ithaca, New York. This solution enabled the company to implement a comprehensive backup and recovery strategy with flexible, hourly RPOs and low RTOs at a much lower price than it would have cost to buy and deploy a traditional backup system. Recovery time is now measured in minutes-in the event of an outage, a full VM can be restored or a failover to the backup data center can be initiated with just a few mouse clicks if needed. Because OmniCube combines server and storage in one device, Dairylea is repurposing the old servers from the primary data center to be used in the backup data center. And, Wheeler noted, Dairylea is more confident in its failover and recovery process because with OmniCube makes it quick and simple to test restores of any application at any time.
