Zerto is a disaster recovery solution designed to minimize downtime of the VMs if there was a disaster. Zerto's platform is built on the foundation of Continuous Data Protection (CDP), which enables minimal or close to no data loss. It provides the level of protection wanted for many business-critical and mission-critical enterprise applications. Zerto also automates and orchestrates failover and failback, ensuring minimal downtime in a disaster. Overall, Zerto simplifies management through automation and ensures fast and highly predictable recovery times.

|**Zerto Cloud Appliance (ZCA)**| Windows VM only used when Zerto is used to recover vSphere VMs as Azure Native IaaS VMs. The ZCA is composed of:<ul><li>**ZVM:** A Windows service that hosts the UI and integrates with the native APIs of Azure for management and orchestration.</li><li>**VRA:** A Windows service that replicates the data from or to Azure.</li></ul>The ZCA integrates natively with the platform it's deployed on, allowing you to use Azure Blob storage within a storage account on Microsoft Azure. As a result, it ensures the most cost-efficient deployment on each of these platforms. |

|**Virtual Protection Group (VPG)**| Logical group of VMs created on the ZVM. Zerto allows configuring disaster recovery, Backup, and Mobility policies on a VPG. This mechanism enables a consistent set of policies to be applied to a group of VMs. |
