Neverfail’s Continuous Availability Suite is the powerful core technology at the center of every Neverfail solution. By replicating
data from an active server to a passive server through a unique cloning process, Neverfail provides
a comprehensive high availability
solution for disaster recovery,
business continuity and
continuous data protection.
Neverfail solutions also ensure that users stay connected to applications during IT activities that require
planned downtime, such as
migrations,
upgrades,
maintenance,
and virtualization.
A unique architecture for Continuous Availability
Traditional approaches to high availability or disaster recovery only address certain types of failures and
only focus only part of the issue. Clusters offer high availability against application and server failures,
but planned maintenance, environmental issues or even shared storage failure will bring down business servers.
Recovering from backup will take hours, if not days, time that cannot be afforded in today’s 24x7 world.
Replication and CDP approaches are useful for less critical applications yet they may still require heavy scripting,
server rebuilds and application updates before the business service becomes available again.
In contrast, the Neverfail Continuous Availability Suite is unique in providing:
- The first high availability solution to focus on the entire application environment, regardless of the type or source of disruption
- Proactive monitoring to avoid failure in the first place
- Automatic failover that keeps users seamlessly connected, with no need for them to restart applications after the switchback
- Seamless switchback allowing the standby site to be used while planned maintenance is carried out
- Implementation that doesn’t require shared storage and complex technology
Designed for LAN and WAN environments
The flexible architecture of Neverfail Heartbeat is designed to work in both LAN and WAN environments. Where bandwidth
is limited or network utilization is an issue, the Neverfail LBM
is available to optimize and reduce the amount of data that is transmitted between the two servers.
Protection for a wide range of applications
Award-winning Neverfail products and plug-ins support mission-critical Windows®-based applications, including Microsoft® Exchange, SharePoint®,
