How to backup and restore vCD and vSphere?

Is there any comercial solution available yet?

Thanks.

What are you trying to backup and restore? Both vCS and vCD require a database so backing up them backs up what is needed to reconfigured. vCS can be made redundant via vCHB. vCD supports multiple cells for redundancy.

Backup and redundancy are different topics.

For example, I want to backup one Org and restore if needed.

Agreed, the first idea I suggested was backing up the database. I was unsure what you were trying to achieve. I am not currently aware of a commerical product to do what you want. The vCloud API would allow a way to create and delete Orgs, which whould give you the functionality to recreate deleted Orgs, but I assume you want to take it further and restore everything contained within the Org as well. I would recommend not deleting the Org if that is the case and just remove permissions to it (i.e. decommission an Org instead of deleting it).
