Arcserve Backup vs. IBM Storage for Red Hat OpenShift

Arcserve UDP is fully suited for small to large size environments that need complete data protection solutions with the ability to run the fastest backups, replications, instant VM and DR.

This product performance has been creating positive impact on the growth of our company. I can highly recommend to any company that is struggling to find data storage platform. Since we deployed this tool our data is always secure and our files have the most reliable storage tools. Server storage services from IBM portfolio have been great and we have never failed in any day in data transmission from various sources.

Arcserve UDP provides our organization lots of benefits and it is much more than a simple backup and restore solution. We use it for cross platform DR, storage agnostic replications, DR solution instead of VMware SRM and more.

It basically covers all our required scenarios, including VMs, partitions, files or any other objects through NAS, SAN or DAS connections. It's easy to set up and utilize the features and functions. There are a few times that we needed to switch over for the RHA replications and UDP backups. For the RHN replication, there was a roughly 10 minutes downtime during the switchover. For the UDP, it works pretty well.
