Microsoft Azure now lets you backup VMware instances

Microsoft launched an enhanced version of its Azure Site Recovery (ASR) targeted specifically for VMware customers version.

The concept allows virtual machines backup ASR Azure storage, update and run the VM on Azure as a disaster recovery option. Microsoft charges $ 54 per month, for example, VM stored in Azure, but do not pay the costs of computing or storage until the virtual machine is running, it would be logical because it is only a file up VM is rotated above.

However, \VMware exam dumps already offers a service recovery in the event of a similar disaster in its own cloud vCloud Air for its customers. Microsoft is betting that VMware can not match Microsoft to climb clouds or scope: after all, the ASR service is already offered in 18 geographic regions compared to the nine (plus two individual government sites) in the VMware is.

However, this may not be such a problem that VMware has a network of partners that use its products running clouds. This network of partners, according to research firm Gartner Vendor Rating end of 2015 to VMware, is a force, because the likes of CSC and CenturyLink "have a broader range of skills and offer additional services that are important for media companies market and buyers, as the security services and managed services. "

VMware hybrid cloud remains convinced that an all-VMware makes life easier for vAdmins. Microsoft, however, thinks differently and is now available for users of VMware, a single county wide service that harms not only the new Virtzilla but also affects other storage vendors and the DR software.
