description ReplicateHQ Overview
ReplicateHQ offers a simplified approach to AWS disaster recovery, focusing on replicating entire server environments including operating systems, applications, and data to a secondary region. Its designed for organizations seeking a streamlined, agentless solution with minimal operational overhead, ideal for migrating legacy applications to the cloud.
help ReplicateHQ FAQ
Does ReplicateHQ use AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery or only snapshots?
The listing describes whole-server replication to a secondary AWS region, which is closer to AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery than to a simple snapshot backup. AWS DRS uses continuous block-level replication and recovery orchestration, but ReplicateHQ's exact underlying service should be confirmed. ([AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/drs/latest/userguide/FAQ.html))
Can ReplicateHQ recover an operating system and applications, not just data?
That is the stated purpose of the product: replicating the server environment, including the operating system, applications, and data. Ask which source systems, hypervisors, and operating systems are supported before relying on it for a specific workload.
Is ReplicateHQ really agentless?
The listing calls the approach agentless, but AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery normally installs a Replication Agent on each protected source server. Clarify whether ReplicateHQ uses a different capture method or is using agentless to describe its management layer. ([AWS DRS implementation guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/pdfs/guidance/latest/deploying-cross-region-disaster-recovery-with-aws-elastic-disaster-recovery/guidance-ug.pdf))
What recovery point and recovery time can ReplicateHQ deliver?
AWS documentation describes typical Elastic Disaster Recovery results in the sub-second RPO range and roughly 5 to 20 minutes for RTO, but those figures are not a ReplicateHQ guarantee. Network bandwidth, source workload, target instance size, and application startup order can change the result.
