Support for setting up replication across clouds

Veritas replication technology can now be used to set up replication across AWS and Azure cloud.

With Veritas Volume Replicator (VVR), you can leverage one of the cloud setup as an on-premise data center and the other cloud as a DR site to replicate data across the two clouds.

For details about setting up replication across cloud, refer to Veritas InfoScale Disaster Recovery Implementation Guide - Linux.
