NeverFail - Continuous Availability

Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery are often spoken about as though they are the same. They are not. As the old saying goes “Prevention is better than cure” and Neverfail take exactly that approach.

While some supposedly similar solutions wait for system failure before invoking recovery measures, Neverfail products constantly monitor application health, not just system health, so that developing problems can be nipped in the bud and continuity ensured from the earliest possible stage.

This gives you the best possible level of control over application continuity, and hence operational efficiency.

See below for customer messages on the Neverfail product range.

 

Neverfail for VMware® Virtual Center

Neverfail for VMware® VirtualCenter is the only continuous availability solution designed to automatically protect your VirtualCenter management environment, including License Server. It clones, and then continuously replicates, configuration settings, data and the SQL Server databases to ensure that a consistent, up-to-date copy of VMware VirtualCenter is maintained on a secondary server.

Neverfail then proactively monitors VirtualCenter to predict risks to availability. Risk factors include services becoming unavailable, performance degradation, operating system failures and total machine failures. When an outage is unavoidable, Neverfail automatically switches VirtualCenter control to a secondary machine. There is no interruption to the management and control operations offered by VirtualCenter, virtual infrastructure management policies simply continue to run delivering maximum quality of service to end-user applications.

Neverfail for Microsoft® Exchange

With Neverfail for Exchange, email downtime will become a thing of the past. High Availability and Disaster Recovery are combined to deliver maximum email availability. Built on the Neverfail Continuous Availability Platform, you can be certain that Exchange will be available 24x7 even when servers are affected by planned and unplanned outages. Asynchronous replication, seamless failover and switchback, LAN and WAN protection, point-in-time rollback, continuous user connection and extensive monitoring and automation ensure business continuity, high availability and disaster recovery are delivered in one affordable and accessible solution.

Exchange high availability requirements are delivered through proactive monitoring of the health of your Exchange system. Network, operating system and related applications such as anti-virus, anti-spam and BlackBerry Enterprise Server software can be monitored. Performance indicators ranging from SMTP queue lengths to CPU and disk availability metrics are checked against best practice settings to determine availability threat levels. Windows services are monitored to ensure they are active, and can be restarted automatically after failure.

When failover is inevitable Neverfail for Exchange takes care of switching the email service to a secondary server with no interruption for end-users. Data and application recovery is not required to keep email flowing and maintain access to the complete email database. Outlook does not require restart, users just keep on working. Business continues.

Neverfail for Microsoft® SharePoint

How much would it cost your company in lost productivity to go a day without Microsoft SharePoint? With Neverfail for Microsoft SharePoint, you'll have a high availability and disaster recovery solution that protects and proactively monitors your entire SharePoint environment for continuous data protection.

With collaborative content being constantly generated, changed and deleted, SharePoint environments are subject to massive change. Microsoft clustering cannot protect your SharePoint Portal Server. Only Neverfail for Microsoft SharePoint ensures end-to-end high availability and disaster recovery protection for your entire SharePoint environment, including all information-sharing applications and collaborative servers.

Neverfail for Microsoft SharePoint will keep your users connected to SharePoint and protect the servers that host your valuable SharePoint content, whether it resides in SQL Server, SharePoint Public Folders or a file system.

Neverfail for Microsoft® SQL Server

Today's SQL Server environments are always changing, with data being constantly appended, reformatted and deleted across a rapidly evolving network of databases. Typical backup systems — which can't keep up with this volatile database environment — simply don't provide you with the SQL Server high availability and disaster recovery solution you need.

Neverfail for Microsoft SQL Server proactively monitors your SQL Server database application, including all system and data tables, looking for data changes. It then reconfigures itself accordingly to ensure that all database changes are included in its replication set. In case of failover, these database changes will be fully restored.

Neverfail for Microsoft SQL Server also proactively monitors the health of your entire SQL Server environment, including physical server hardware, network infrastructure and operating system. If any problem occurs, Neverfail can take a variety of preemptive, corrective actions without resorting to a full system failover. If required, a graceful switchover to your secondary server can occur automatically, ensuring SQL Server high availability, SQL Server disaster recovery and SQL Server continuous data protection.

Neverfail for Microsoft® File Server

Neverfail for Microsoft File Server is the only high availability and disaster recovery solution that proactively monitors your entire File Server environment, ensuring maximum data availability and protection for the critical documents that drive your business.

Typical file server backup strategies that mix frequent incremental backups with occasional full backups may work in theory, but they cannot prevent losing changes to data after the last backup was finished. In addition, these types of backups do not address the redundancy required for true File Server high-availability and disaster recovery. Backup archives may be available, but restoring data from multiple tapes is a time-consuming process with an open invitation for error.

Neverfail for Microsoft File Server automatically configures protection for all of your file shares as they are created, edited, or deleted, and continually reconfigures itself to ensure that any and all changes are included in its replication set so that the file server's data is always up-to-date and fully protected - no manual intervention required.
