Data Protection Capabilities for Event Topics

Prev Next

The following data protection capabilities are supported for VAST Event Broker topics:

  • VAST asynchronous replication and failover

    The replicated topics are read-only at the destination peer. In case of a failover, the destination peer becomes the one hosting the topics to which events are produced.

  • Snapshots and global snapshot cloning

    A clone can be created from either local or remote snapshots.

The following rules and limitations apply:

  • The Kafka-enabled view needs to be manually created and associated with a virtual IP pool at the destination peer. The pool must have the same name as the one at the source peer.

  • Fast restore of a protected path containing a Kafka-enabled view is not allowed.

  • Consumer group offsets are not replicated.
