Multi site and multi tenancy

摘要

A computer implemented method, system, and computer program product for replicating multiple tenants comprising creating a first sub cluster at a production site; wherein the production site has a cluster of replication appliances and wherein the sub-cluster comprises a subset of the replication appliances in the cluster of replication appliance at the production site, creating a second sub cluster at a replication site comprising of a subset of replication appliances in the cluster of replication appliance at the production cluster, and creating a replication subsystem comprising of the first and second sub-clusters and replicating from the production sub-cluster to the replica sub cluster.

1. A computer implemented method for replicating multiple tenants comprising:
creating a first virtual cluster at a production site; wherein the production site has a cluster of replication appliances and wherein the first virtual cluster includes a subset of the replication appliances in the cluster of replication appliance at the production site; wherein first virtual cluster of the replication appliances corresponds to portions of the cluster of replication appliances on the production site included in the first virtual cluster; creating a second virtual cluster at a replication site including of a second subset of replication appliances in a second cluster of replication appliances at the replication cluster; wherein the second virtual cluster of the replication corresponds to portions of the second cluster of replication appliances included in the second virtual cluster; and creating a virtual replication system for a tenant including the first virtual cluster and second virtual cluster and wherein the tenant is using the virtual replication system to replicate data of the tenant from the first virtual cluster on the production site to the second virtual cluster on the replication site; wherein access to the virtual replication system provides the tenant with portions of the replication appliances included in the first virtual cluster and use the portions of the replication appliances in the second virtual cluster for replication of the data of the tenant without exposing the resources of the cluster of replication appliances on the production site and without exposing the resources of the cluster of the replication appliances on the replication site; and wherein each virtual replication system has separated IO path and a separate control path, providing multi tenancy; and wherein each replication appliance in the virtual replication system is assigned with a portion of resources of the replication appliance for use in the virtual replication system.
