help Zerto for Azure FAQ
Does Zerto for Azure support both Linux and Windows virtual machines?
Yes, Zerto provides broad support for replicating both Windows and Linux-based virtual machines into Microsoft Azure. The platform works by installing a lightweight appliance that replicates the block-level data of the VMs. This ensures cross-platform compatibility when migrating or failing over to the Azure cloud.
What is the difference between Zerto's synchronous and asynchronous replication?
Zerto utilizes asynchronous replication as its standard for long-distance cloud backups, ensuring minimal impact on primary application performance. For enterprise environments, it offers near-synchronous replication with Recovery Point Objectives (RPOs) of mere seconds. The system automatically manages the replication journal to maintain data consistency during failover.
Can Zerto for Azure handle automated failover testing?
Yes, one of Zerto's flagship features is its ability to perform non-disruptive failover testing within an isolated Azure bubble network. This allows IT teams to validate their disaster recovery plans without impacting production environments. It generates an automated compliance report proving the Recovery Time Objective (RTO) was met.
