Real-Time Intranet (SharePoint) Replication: Production Site to Disaster Revovery Site


SharePoint 2010 real-time replication to the Disaster recovery site using third-party tool; DocAve from AvePoint is one among them



We have been using this software for SharePoint replication since last 4+ years. It's a wonderful software designed for MOSS 2007 & SharePoint 2010 environment. Lot of features are embedded to it. We just got replication module licensed as replication from production site to DR Site was our concern. All we have to do is to first restore the destination site using the latest SQL DB site level backups. We used an independent server for the DocAve Enterprise manager. DocAve 6 Client Plug-ins were installed on the below Web Front-End servers of both source and destination site. That's it. The configuration is pretty simple. It does real-time replication instantly in less than a minute.

We had slight issues when we activated real-time replication. However, the issue got stabilized after re-scheduling the replication method to trigger incremental replication after business hours. Accessing database from different process like backup plan and real-time replication plan could have been a conflict.
