Diseño de una metodología para el respaldo y replicación de servidores

Abstract

The current degree work focuses on designing a solution for server backup and replication, the objective is to establish a methodology that ensures the integrity of the data and availability in the case of the different side effects that may occur that result in data loss, allowing for reliable and timely recovery. For the development of the project, two types of methodology have been proposed; the first structured to backup servers and the second to replicate them, through the Veeam Backup & Replication tool; This design was carried out in the first case through 7 stages (initial evaluation, implementation of Veeam Backup & Replication, configuration of backup tasks, storage and backup management, disaster recovery, monitoring and reporting, maintenance and updating); and for the second case through 5 stages (initial evaluation and planning, installation and configuration of Veeam Backup & Replication, configuration of virtual machine replication, configuration of automatic recovery and failover, maintenance and update). It is important to note that the functionality of the project has been confirmed using a fully operational real proof of concept, obtaining as results that the backup was performed in two minutes forty-two seconds (02:42), processed 50 GB and transferred 7.7 GB; and the replication job lasted five minutes thirty-eight seconds (05:38), processed 50GB and transferred 11.7GB. It is concluded that through the tests carried out, the suitability and effectiveness of the selected tools have been demonstrated, confirming that they meet the requirements and expectations of the project.
