redundancy
redundant servers and network
Disaster recovery solution is designed primarily for manufacturing companies and it enables quick access to data and services in case of catastrophic events (earthquake, fire, flood, theft). It requires redundant server systems installed on geographically dispersed locations and redundant network that connects these locations.
Depending on state of company’s IT infrastructure, implementation of disaster recovery solution may request significant upgrades.
Valuable data stored on servers’ disks is synchronously replicated over redundant LAN. Optionally, fully automated failover in case of emergency can be implemented by clustering software. Using of server virtualization techniques consolidates piles of server hardware and makes system easier to maintain.
All physical and virtual servers and web and networks services are actively monitored. Monitored data is available through web user interface.
