Abstract: A computer-implemented method for measuring compliance with a recovery point objective for an application may include identifying a set of mount points on a primary site written to by the application. The computer-implemented method may also include identifying a second site used for asynchronous replication of the primary site. The computer-implemented method may further include periodically updating a time value on each mount point in the set of mount points on the primary site. The computer-implemented method may additionally include, for each mount point in the set of mount points, measuring a replication lag by calculating a difference between the time value on the mount point and a replication of the time value on a corresponding mount point on the secondary site. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for disaster recovery of multi-tier applications may include 1) identifying a multi-tier application that is provisioned with a plurality of production clusters at a production site, 2) identifying a disaster recovery site including a plurality of recovery clusters, 3) identifying, at the disaster recovery site, a failure of the multi-tier application at the production site, and 4) initiating, from the disaster recovery site, a migration of the multi-tier application from the production site to the disaster recovery site. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Abstract: A host-based replication snapshot method. The method includes synchronizing a set of data objects stored at both a replication source node and a secondary node. The method further includes identifying changed data objects out of the set of data objects from the replication source node that have been modified during a time period between a first time and a subsequent second time. Metadata indicating the changed data objects from the replication source node is transmitted to the secondary node. A snapshot is then generated at the second time on the secondary node by using the metadata.
