Scenario 1
Application guy wants to run the database A sitting on VM_A as it was last Tuesday 2:00pm. This is because users claim that Tuesday 2:00pm databases behaved in strange way.
Scenario 2
The Virtual Machine has been deleted. We need to immediately start it as this is critical Virtual Machine.
Scenario 3
We have Disaster Recovery site. All Virtual Machines are replicated to another site.
Primary sites fails. We need to immediately start production in the Disaster Recovery location.

In site B we do not restore anything.
We start Virtual Machines (that were in site A) directly from Data Domain. They work with SSD disks speed!
0 time restoring data!
Those VMs work normally.
They are also normally backed up or restored
Those VMs are from� site A.
They use Data Domain SSD disks as the storage.
