Storage : Continuous Data Protection (CDP)
AMI supports Continuous Data Protection (CDP) through a Journaling module that
provides Time Addressable Storage (TAS) as well as Event Addressable Storage (EAS).
So all volumes / volume groups that have been enabled for Journaling will be available
for CDP. Besides, the CDP UI provides a way to consistently review and recover
volumes of a Consistency group. For SAN volume / volume groups that are not enabled
for Journaling, the UI provides a mechanism to group them logically during a review
process and recover data across all the volumes together.

corner of the window.
