After implementing a hybrid cloud solution based on vSphere, the city of Avondale realized that it needed to improve its backup and disaster strategy. The city wanted local backup services for fast recovery and a regionally separate disaster recovery site in case of a disaster. Avondale used VMware vCloud Air Disaster Recovery and vSphere to design, test and launch a new disaster recovery strategy in less than three months. As a result, the city can take advantage of the built-in test feature to run background failover testing and be confident in its ability to easily meet recovery time objectives for critical services.
