OPERATIONAL RELIABILITY YOU CAN TRUST

Technology has become the foundation to modern business. Do you know how greatly downtime affects your bottom line and productivity? On top of hardware and software repair and replacement costs, companies also have to pay for the lost minutes and hours of work. Add in client dissatisfaction and the cost of lost data, and it’s easy to see how quickly costs can spiral out of control.

The answer: Keep your business up and running with a built-in failover that mitigates downtime altogether. With our business continuity and high availability solutions, your business has nothing to fear.

    APPLICATION RESILIENCE

    APPLICATION RESILIENCE

    Application resilience can be classified by the effect to the user. The entire application environment, including data replication and switchable devices can be controlled through the clustering infrastructure as a single entity.

    LEVELS OF APPLICATION RESILIENCY

    LEVELS OF APPLICATION RESILIENCY

    Application resiliency can be customized to the level of resiliency that your business requires using the features of the clustering framework.

    DATA RESILIENCE

    DATA RESILIENCE

    Data resilience is the availability of the data that is needed in a production environment. There are several technologies, which address the data resilience requirements. These technologies can be split into two main categories: logical or software replication and hardware or disk replication.

    ENVIRONMENT RESILIENCE

    ENVIRONMENT RESILIENCE

    Environment resilience can be broken up into two sections, the physical environment, and the logical environment. The physical environment, which is really part of single system availability, focuses on things such as hardware redundancy, network topology, power infrastructure, and cooling capabilities. The logical environment is the application hosting and execution environment.
