Remote replication over Metropolitan Area Networks and Wide Area Networks has become increasingly widespread with the mass adoption and deployment of iSCSI-based storage appliances. 

But one of the biggest challenges now facing replication over significant distances is delays which range from a couple of milliseconds for inter-city connections to around 80-100 ms from coast-to-coast, and as much as 250-300 ms for submarine transmissions across the globe and 700ms when geostationary satellites are used.

This whitepaper explores the impact of transport distance and latency on the efficiency of network bandwidth in WAN remote replication situations over TCP/IP, and how to optimize the speed of your organizations’ long distance WAN connections for worry-free disaster recovery. Read now to learn more.
