Protect a vApp or Virtual Machine from one Organization VDC to another, and keep the workload running in the source site. The source site is an Organization VDC or On-Premises vSphere environment.
If the source site is unavailable, after a successful replication you can failover and power on the source virtual machine in the destination site. The main advantage of a protection over a migration is that it supports SLA’s with a RPO as low as 1 hour.
