Cloud Mobility for Dell Storage enables you to view and analyze snapshots in the cloud and, when needed, move them back to external storage. Available as a virtual application within the VMware and AWS Marketplaces, Cloud Mobility for Dell Storage provides access to snapshots shipped from your storage array to the cloud.
Once deployed, Cloud Mobility for Dell Storage provides read-only access to snapshots sent to the cloud. You access snapshots by using a separate iSCSI initiator in the cloud, moving snapshot data back to other storage.
Although it is not primarily used as a disaster recovery solution, Cloud Mobility for Dell Storage provides disaster recovery capability for snapshots. If there is a disaster, you use cloud snapshots to reconstruct and pull snapshots from the cloud and restore them to local storage that is directly attached to the iSCSI initiator.
Requiring no separate license, Cloud Mobility for Storage also provides multipath I/O support for path redundancy and better performance to ensure continued access to your resources.
