Backup & Recovery

Deployment Scenarios

Site Map »
CDP can flexibly deliver end-to-end backup and recovery for small offices and home offices, as well as distributed-environment branch offices and remote offices. In each of these environments, business owners or IT administrators need to protect not only mission-critical data, but also the systems that access that data, such as Windows® Small Business Server, Exchange, SQL Server and Active Directory. They also need the performance to backup and restore rapidly expanding volumes of data, while meeting stricter regulatory compliance for data archiving. And should disaster strike, they need the flexibility to immediately recover the most current data to new locations or computer platforms.

Small Office/Home Office (SOHO) Scenario

In this SOHO scenario, data on desktops and laptops is transparently backed up to the CDP appliance, which is then automatically backed up to using the CDP Offsite Data Backup Service using SonicWALL’s state-of-the-art Secure DataCenter.

Additionally, the latest version of backup data can be stored to a Local Archive on a USB drive for added disaster protection, and complete system images of all workstations can be written on a secondary external media for Bare Metal Recovery.

Remote Office/Branch Office (ROBO) Scenario

In this ROBO scenario, data and applications from workstations and servers at each remote office have been burned to CDs for Bare Metal Recovery. Data from workstations and servers is transparently and automatically transmitted to the local CDP appliance at headquarters. Mobile users’ data is transparently and securely transmitted over SonicWALL SSL VPN to the branch office CDP appliance. The backup is then securely transmitted via CDP Site-to-Site Backup to a secondary CDP appliance at the central office. Additionally, the latest version of backup data can stored to a Local Archive on a USB drive for added disaster protection.

Distributed Remote Office Scenario

To further extend and scale-up ROBO deployments, a single primary CDP appliance can aggregate and centralize backups from multiple CDP appliances at multiple remote offices via SonicWALL Site-to-Site Backup.
