Hi,
You can find more information here : https://www.vmware.com/files/pdf/products/vsphere/VMware-vSphere-Data-Protection-Product-FAQ.pdf
Does vSphere Data Protection replace VMware Data Recovery?
Yes. vSphere Data Protection replaces the legacy VMware
Data Recovery feature in vSphere. vSphere Data Protection
provides equivalent scalability to VMware Data Recovery with
a more robust and efficient backup engine.
