You’ve seen the statistics. Data loss and downtime are costly. Here’s one more metric to drive that home: Statista found that the average cost of a data breach in the United States was $9.36 million in 2024. That can kill a business.
Ensuring your data is always accessible—even if a natural disaster or cyberattack hits you—is crucial to business continuity. That’s why data replication is foundational to any effective disaster recovery plan. Data replication strengthens your data resilience by creating and maintaining exact copies of your data in multiple locations. By replicating your data across multiple sites, you can avoid a single point of failure and recover quickly when disaster strikes.
Why Replication Is Essential for Data Resilience
When your primary data storage is compromised by a cyberattack or a site-specific disaster, replication ensures you have an intact and accessible secondary copy of your data. This added layer of data protection helps you minimize the impacts of downtime, which a recent Forbes article cites as $9,000 per minute.
Replication is more than a backup strategy. It’s fundamental to achieving data resilience.
Arcserve UDP 10: Next-Level Data Replication
Arcserve Unified Data Protection (UDP) 10 offers one-to-many replication support, which maximizes data resilience. The benefits of this feature include:
• Simultaneous replication to multiple targets, ensuring your backups are saved across several locations without adding complexity. That eliminates the risks of a single point of failure. And Arcserve UDP 10 can save up to 33 percent of the time you spend on backups compared to UDP 9.
• Protection against site-level disasters, so if one of your locations is hit by a fire or flood—or a localized cyberattack—you have multiple copies from which you can recover your data.
• Faster disaster recovery by ensuring your backup data is readily available at multiple sites.
• Flexibility that supports hybrid environments, enabling you to protect your on-premises, offsite, and cloud data. According to a Statista report, 41 percent of respondents said, "Flexibility in running services on the cloud and on-premises has become one of the most important factors influencing decisions.”
Enhanced Features, Cost-Effective Solutions
Beyond one-to-many replication, Arcserve UDP 10 delivers a cost-effective solution for ensuring data resilience, with features that include:
• Flexible Deployment Options
The software can be purchased as a standalone solution or pre-installed in an appliance.
• Versatile Licensing Options
Arcserve UDP 10 can be licensed on a per-socket subscription basis to reduce your total cost of ownership. Our advanced licensing system is tailored to different environments to ensure you pay only for what you need and can scale quickly as your company grows.
• Assured Security Scan
This feature scans your backup files for malware before restoration, preventing system reinfection and supporting business continuity. The scan detects malicious files on demand, so you can rest assured that your backups are clean and secure before you restore them.
• Ad-hoc Virtual Standby
Immediately recover with pre-configured virtual machines (VMs). With Ad-hoc Virtual Standby, you can initiate VMs on demand, reducing the cost and complexity of DR. If an outage occurs, this feature minimizes downtime by quickly provisioning the resources you need to keep your operations running.
• Tailored Solutions
When you’re ready to upgrade your data resilience capabilities, Arcserve’s experienced team can help you engineer a customized set of capabilities that suits your company’s needs without adding extra complexity to your IT environment.
