Hi,
can you tell about info of SRM?
I think that VCB is not very "easy" to implement in a very large enviroment..
What is it SRM?
I would find a solution for enterprise site. Do you know Avamar (EMC), vRanger...can you tell something about your experience?
SRM is VMWware's new Site Recovery Manager. It's supposed to do entire Disaster Recovery from site to site using VI3. I think this is an entirely separate product from VCB, so I think VCB will continue to be supported, but I'm not sure. I've read up on Avamar, and they have pretty cool data de-duplication products, but are pricey. No experience on vRanger, sorry.
I doubt VCB will go anywhere. It's currently the only option for backing up ESXi. SRM isn't a backup, it's a service to monitor SAN replication to a DR site so you can get your VM's up and running in the event of a disaster, it's unrelated to VCB.
BTW, I will be giving a session at VMware on Wednesday at 2:30 and again at 4 on VMware Disaster Recovery solutions, including Veeam Backup.
VCB is here to stay, as Doug said. I expect we will see new features and continued support from VMware. However I do also hope that VMware open up an API to allow other vendors to add more value in the space.
