An enterprise is designing a disaster recovery (DR) solution from the East US region to the West US region for an e-commerce application. The application consists of the following three tiers:
* Web Tier: Two virtual machines (VMs) with a write churn of per VM.
* Application Tier: Two VMs with a write churn of per VM.
* Database Tier: One SQL Server VM (`db-prod-01`) with three Premium SSD disks:
* OS disk: write churn.
* Data disk: write churn.
* Transaction log disk: write churn.
The business requires a Recovery Point Objective (RPO) of 15 minutes and a Recovery Time Objective (RTO) of 1 hour.
Which disaster recovery design should you recommend to meet the requirements?
- Replicate the web and application tier VMs using Azure Site Recovery. Configure SQL Server Always On Availability Groups to replicate the database tier to a target VM in the West US region.Cevap
- BReplicate all VMs, including the database VM, to the West US region using Azure Site Recovery with the standard protection tier.
- CReplicate all VMs, including the database VM, to the West US region using Azure Site Recovery with the high-churn protection tier.
- DConfigure Azure Backup with Cross-Region Restore (CRR) to replicate all virtual machines to a Recovery Services vault in the West US region.
Cevap
Replicate the web and application tier VMs using Azure Site Recovery. Configure SQL Server Always On Availability Groups to replicate the database tier to a target VM in the West US region.
The correct design uses Azure Site Recovery for the web and application tier VMs because their write churn rates ( and respectively) are well within the capabilities of Azure Site Recovery. For the database tier, the transaction log disk has a write churn rate of , which exceeds both the standard replication limit () and the high-churn replication limit () per disk in Azure Site Recovery. Therefore, database-native replication using SQL Server Always On Availability Groups must be recommended to handle the high churn rate while achieving the target RPO and RTO.
