All right, what have we learned in this module?
Well,
I want you to know that Azure Site Recovery is such a great product that there
are independent software vendors, that is third‑party companies, who build
their own solutions on top of ASR. They'll use ASR in the back as an engine,
just like analogously, if that's a word,
I think it is, there are plenty of software companies that use,
for example,
Azure Storage in the back end, and they never mention that to
the customer, it's just a back‑end service. So we've got a
similar functionality going on with ASR,
which I think is pretty cool, and it's a testimony to how
powerful and flexible the product is.
Now, again,
if you're looking at server migration, that is migrating servers from
on‑prem into Azure or from other clouds into Azure,
please don't use ASR,
even though you technically can. You want to stay as much in Azure support
as possible, and in order to do that in an orthodox way,
you'll want to use Azure Migrate server migration, please. Now our
lead for the final module of this course is, well,
all right,
Tim, so far we've looked at the backup and recovery situations in the
recovery service as well, and we've looked at failover.
That's really awesome.
But what if we just need a backup copy of a Hyper‑V
virtual machine? Could we do replication on a smaller
scale? Isn't s ASR overkill? You know,
it's, I'm getting my consultant head on here. You saw that we
can easily configure replication for single Azure VMs, so let
me tighten this lead a little bit.
What if we want to manage only single VMs on‑premises?
Yes, in that case,
I would say that's a great lead in to what we're going to do
in the final module of the course on protecting virtual
machines by using Hyper‑V Replica. Thanks, as always, for your attention. I look forward to seeing you then.
