Looking for a robust solution.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
We have numerous Windows 2008 R2 server clusters in a central data center and are looking to provide secondary site fail-over. &nbsp;I have been looking at Windows 2012 R2 features coming later in the year and also third party solutions such as Double Take Availability.<br />
<br />
I am hoping to get a 1 redundant GBps VPN site to site connection between the two sites. &nbsp;We have NetApp SANs and SnapMirror licensing and use iSCSI LUNs.<br />
<br />
I know the future is virtualization and cloud, but we have significant new hardware waiting to be used. &nbsp;I have been thinking to have the secondary site to be perhaps a Hyper-V 2012 private cloud.<br />
<br />
Thanks so much!

Best way to protect physical Windows clusters at secondary DR site?

Disaster Recovery is the planning for and creation of policies and procedures related to the resumption or continuation of an organization's functions following a catastrophic event. The term is most frequently used in relation to failure of networks, but DR preparations also include other business systems and personnel considerations.
