CA XoSoft High Availability
CA XOsoft High Availability is a business continuity solution based on asynchronous real-time replication and automatic failover and failback to provide cost-effective business continuity and disaster recovery for Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, Microsoft IIS webservers, file servers, and other applications on both 32- and 64 bit Windows servers.
CA XOsoft High Availability offers automated push-button or fully automatic failover of mission-critical application servers over a LAN or WAN, application-aware status monitoring, integrated continuous data protection as a guard against data corruption, and completely non-disruptive automatic testing of your disaster recovery system, all in a system that sets the standard for ease of configuration and management.
When disaster strikes, whether in the form of a hurricane, a blackout, or far more likely, a virus attack or software or user error, your ability to respond well to the crisis can make the difference between a bright future and the end of your business. At the very least, you are likely to incur significant costs in lost business and, perhaps more importantly, lost confidence by your customers, investors, and other stakeholders. Business continuity is not just about insurance , it is about maintaining your competitive edge.
CA XOsoft High Availability provides:
- Asynchronous host-based software replication that transfers changes to application data as they occur to a standby replica server located locally or over the WAN
- Automatic monitoring of your production application, including both server availability and the state of application services and data for supported applications like Exchange, Oracle, and SQL Server
- Push-button or auto-triggered automatic failover of all users to a standby server, which may be on the same network or across a WAN at an arbitrarily distant site
- Push-button or automatic failover back to the original server when ready
- Integrated continuous data protection (CDP) for recovery from data corrupted by virus action or user or application error
- Tailored support for Microsoft Exchange, SQL Server, Oracle, and file servers, as well as other applications
- A CDP Repository with full text searching capability give end users control to recover important data quickly without placing the burden on IT administrators
- With the New Centralized Manager you have greater operational control by allowing you to manage all your replication/failover scenario configurations for your entire environment from a single console
- Bandwidth benchmarking assessment mode allows you to estimate bandwidth requirements prior to the deployment of any replication scenario. This gives you greater cost control by knowing exactly what your requirements are so that you can purchase only the bandwidth you need to meet your business needs
- Unique ease of installation with no application or user downtime, automated remote installation, and wizard-driven creation of new high availability scenarios
