| Now more than ever, companies need
to protect their critical data and files immediately.
A loss of data could trigger severe corporate hardships.
Time is of the essence.
Fortunately, SharePlex® has been around since
1997, constantly improving on its leading technology.
Fast and light on the network, SharePlex can maintain
current copies of data and file systems at geographically
distant locations. There are many technologies which
can accomplish this and some are even ¡°free¡±. The
long-term network costs are where the real spend occurs.
SharePlex will save your company money on the network
costs.
When SharePlex is providing a disaster recovery capability to your
business, the same hardware can be used to reduce downtime around planned
maintenance activities. This does not compromise your DR plan, as
transactions can still be sent to your remote site.
Often disaster recovery technology is in a waiting mode (i.e., it¡¯s not
actually up and running). Ensuring that the DR technology employed will be
available when needed requires testing. Testing often takes the DR
solution offline. This can be a costly exercise. Without regular testing,
the probability of the DR solution working degrades with time. With
SharePlex, your DR solution is continuously tested and always available
for fail over.
For many companies, the time to recover from a disaster will seriously
affect a company¡¯s bottom line. There are various configurations available
with SharePlex, including peer-to-peer where there is simultaneous access
to both databases. There is no faster method available for fail over to
the DR site.
The image of disaster is often interpreted to mean a site based event
where the computing infrastructure is physically destroyed. Studies have
shown that the vast majority of data loss is not due to these kinds of
events. Instead, incidents such as a table drop, block level corruption or
even the loss of a data file are some of the leading causes of data loss.
SharePlex protects against all these events and more.
Used as an integral component of your overall disaster recovery plan,
SharePlex can preserve your critical information from harm.
