Neverfail Solutions

Neverfail solutions' 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 solutions provide 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 server consolidation (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

Neverfail provides “out of the box” application protection solutions for Microsoft® Exchange, SharePoint, SQL Server, File Server, and IIS, as well as RIM BlackBerry®, IBM® Lotus® Domino®, and Captaris® RightFax. Neverfail also protects the entire ecosystem through auxiliary applications such as anti-virus, back-up, fax and archiving through the Neverfail Application Module eXtension or AMX.
