Deployment Scenarios

In this article

    Orchestrator supports a number of deployment scenarios. This document describes 5 common scenarios.

    • Orchestrating restore to Microsoft Azure from vSphere VM and Veeam agent backups
    • Orchestrating restore to Microsoft Hyper-V from vSphere and Hyper-V VM backups
    • Orchestrating restore to VMware vSphere from vSphere VM and Veeam agent backups
    • Orchestrating failover based on storage replication and vSphere VMs
    • Orchestrating failover based on Veeam vSphere replication jobs
    • Orchestrating restore and VM replica failover in clean room

    You can also combine any of the described scenarios to support your own data protection strategy.
