Modernize Disaster Recovery, Backup & Restore Strategy for On-premises Environment

Modernize Disaster Recovery, Backup & Restore Strategy for On-premises Environment

In today's increasingly connected world, businesses rely on their digital systems to operate efficiently. But what happens when something goes wrong, whether it’s a cyberattack, human error, hardware failure, or even a natural disaster?

That is where Disaster Recovery becomes important. A strong Disaster Recovery strategy acts like a safety net for your company. It keeps your software running, secures your information, and reduces downtime. But if you’re still using traditional backup methods, you may not be as protected as you think, especially if you're operating in On-Premises or Hybrid Cloud environments.

Why Disaster Recovery Is Critical for Business Continuity

Whether your infrastructure is in the cloud, on-premises, or both, outages can have serious consequences:

  • Lost revenue
  • Damaged brand trust
  • Customer dissatisfaction
  • Legal and compliance risks

Many industries are required by law or regulatory bodies to have Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity plans in place.

Unfortunately, traditional Disaster Recovery methods weren’t built for today’s complex, fast-paced, cloud-connected environments. That’s why organizations are now looking for smarter, faster, and more affordable solutions.

The Limitations of Traditional Disaster Recovery Methods

Traditional Disaster Recovery (DR) typically involves creating a full duplicate of your production environment in a separate location, in the event that an issue arises. This approach comes with many problems:

  • High costs for duplicate infrastructure and ongoing maintenance
  • Slow recovery times, especially if only partial Backups are used
  • Inflexibility when needing to restore across cloud regions or environments
  • Lack of full application mobility, including configurations, policies, and network settings

As businesses become more Cloud-Native and distributed across regions, traditional Disaster Recovery (DR) solutions simply don’t scale. It’s too rigid, too expensive, and doesn’t offer the agility that modern organizations require.

Introducing VPC+ DRaaS by Wanclouds: Disaster Recovery Made for Modern IT

To help solve these challenges, Wanclouds offers a modern solution called VPC+ Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS). This isn’t just a backup tool—it’s a full recovery platform designed for on-prem, hybrid, and Multi-cloud environments.

Whether you’re managing complex infrastructure on AWS, running workloads on Kubernetes, or hosting critical applications in a private datacenter, VPC+ DRaaS simplifies the entire disaster recovery process—without breaking the bank.

What Can You Do with VPC+ DRaaS?

With VPC+ DRaaS, you can:

Discover and backup your entire infrastructure

Automatically detect and back up cloud and on-prem resources like:

  • Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs)
  • Networking components
  • Security groups and IAM policies
  • Endpoints and configuration blueprints

Backup and restore Kubernetes environments

Easily protect your Kubernetes clusters, including Red Hat OpenShift, and move them between Clouds or regions when needed.

Enable application mobility across regions and Clouds

Move apps and infrastructure between environments—whether it’s AWS to Azure, or one Cloud region to another—while keeping your full setup intact.

Automate disaster recovery with policy-driven backups

Set up automated policies that align with your RTO (Recovery Time Objective) and RPO (Recovery Point Objective) goals, eliminating the need for manual steps.

Choose your cloud storage.

You aren’t locked into a single cloud provider. Utilize your preferred vendor-free backup storage, tailored to your cost and compliance requirements.
