Secura Announces Cloud DR Solution Enabled by VMware vCloud Availability


By Sally Bryant-Haswell on 14th December, 2018.


We are delighted to announce Cloud DR, a Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) solution which leverages VMware vCloud Availability, one of the latest cloud technology advancements from VMware, a leading innovator in enterprise software.

Secura Cloud DR

Cloud DR offers simple, cost-effective DRaaS for VMware-based platforms, as either a bolt-on service to customers on our Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) or any organisations with VMware infrastructure on its site or in a data centre.

Built around VMware vCloud Availability, Cloud DR offers native disaster recovery protection for any VMware workloads with near instant recovery of protected virtual machines at the click of a button.

Cloud DR can be entirely self-provisioned and managed using VMware solutions, VMware vCenter and vSphere Replication, and customers can configure Recovery Point Objective (RPO) and Recovery Time Objective (RTO) settings, access non-disruptive sandbox testing on demand and manage replication, migration and failover.

Our Cloud DR service removes the need to purchase additional hardware or software, connecting any VMware-based platform to robust disaster recovery on our VPC infrastructure.

Easy online management, metered storage and usage-based costs make it cost effective and simple to implement enterprise-level disaster recovery.

Secura CTO, Dan Nichols, commented:

We’re really excited to have worked with VMware to offer this innovative cloud-based Disaster Recovery as a Service to customers in the UK. Our Cloud DR solution makes it simple for businesses of any size to employ native, robust VMware-based disaster recovery services in a cost-effective way that does not require significant upfront investment.

Alanzo Blackstock, Director, UKI Partner Organisation at VMware commented:

We are committed to delivering innovative solutions to our customers to accelerate their digital transformations. The opportunity to work with Secura in the UK on its Cloud DR solution, leveraging the latest VMware vCloud Availability technology, will enable Secura to offer simple, cost-effective cloud-based disaster recovery services that seamlessly support their customers’ environments.
