Compatible Replication for IBM® XRC®

Improve Protection of IBM and Hitachi Environments

Achieve mainframe compatible extended distance remote copy with Hitachi Compatible Replication Software for IBM XRC. Developed with a cross-license technology agreement between Hitachi Data Systems and IBM, Compatible Replication Software for IBM XRC provides a functionally equivalent asynchronous solution compared to IBM XRC. It also enables protection of your IBM S/390®, IBM z/OS® and Hitachi storage environment. This solution is ideal for data protection requirements that do not mandate the need for immediate and fully certain synchronous replication to a remote location. Because less bandwidth is required, its asynchronous design lets you lower network communication costs.

Hitachi Compatible Software for IBM XRC helps you create and share remote copies between Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform and IBM mainframe hosts.

• Achieve mainframe compatibility within a functional equivalent to IBM XRC environment
• Compatible with XRC System Data Mover (SDM) in data facility storage management subsystem (DFSMS)
  
• Enable low latency asynchronous remote replication performance
• Potentially reduce network communication costs with lower bandwidth requirements
