In their own words
JetStream DR
JetStream DR provides continuous data protection and disaster recovery for VMware workloads. It replicates VM data to object storage, with a stated recovery point objective of near zero, and says it can bring VMs back online within minutes using recovery clusters provisioned on demand. It captures data through VMware vSphere I/O Filters and is managed from a vCenter plug-in or the vSphere Web GUI. Protected VMs do not need installed agents or snapshots, according to the maker. Listed targets include S3-compatible storage such as AWS S3, Azure Blob Storage, Cloudian, and MinIO, as well as Azure NetApp Files. Its hypervisor-level software supports on-premises SAN, NAS, vSAN, and HCI environments, with VMware-compatible recovery infrastructure. Coverage is listed for vSphere 7 and 8, with hybrid deployment, cloud backup targets, and off-site replication. JetStream DR for AVS is obtained through Azure Marketplace; on-premises installations use an OVA from JetStream support. The company describes the product as built for service providers supporting customers’ on-premises continuity needs.
