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.

- As you scale your Azure VMware Solution private cloud operations, you might need to add new Azure VMware Solution hosts for Zerto protection or configure Zerto disaster recovery to new Azure VMware Solution vSphere Clusters. In both these scenarios, you'll be required to open a Support Request with the Azure VMware Solution team in the Initial Availability phase. You can open the [support ticket](https://rc.portal.azure.com/#create/Microsoft.Support) from the Azure portal for these Day 2 configurations.
