Abstract

A computer-implemented method for simultaneously providing multiple data protection functions may include identifying a storage appliance that provides a plurality of data protection functions to a production system. The computer-implemented method may also include identifying a splitter channel from the production system to the storage appliance. The computer-implemented method may further include creating a synchronization channel from the production system to the storage appliance. The computer-implemented method may additionally include transmitting changes made to data on the production system to the storage appliance via the splitter channel. The computer-implemented method may also include synchronizing data on the production system to the storage appliance via the synchronization channel. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
