description Huawei HyperMetro Overview
Huawei HyperMetro is a synchronous data replication software designed to ensure business continuity. It mirrors data changes across geographically dispersed locations offering near-instantaneous recovery from disasters. Primarily used by organizations requiring high availability and disaster recovery capabilities for their virtualized environments – particularly those utilizing Huawei’s OceanStor storage solutions and integrating with Zerto disaster recovery platforms.
help Huawei HyperMetro FAQ
What Huawei storage systems support HyperMetro?
HyperMetro is a feature available on Huawei's OceanStor enterprise storage systems, which are designed for large-scale data center deployments. The technology requires low-latency network connections between the two sites to support synchronous write confirmation.
Can Huawei HyperMetro protect virtualized workloads?
Yes, HyperMetro is designed to provide continuous availability for virtualized environments by ensuring that synchronized data copies are always available at the secondary site. In the event of a primary site failure, virtual machines can be brought online at the recovery site with minimal downtime.
What is the difference between Huawei HyperMetro and asynchronous replication?
HyperMetro uses synchronous replication, meaning every write must be confirmed at both sites before the operation completes, resulting in a zero recovery point objective (RPO). Asynchronous replication acknowledges writes at the primary site first, which can result in some data loss if the primary site fails before data is fully copied.
