Partners, the success with SafeKit
This platform agnostic solution is ideal for a partner reselling a critical application and who wants to provide a redundancy and high availability option easy to deploy to many customers.
With many references in many countries won by partners, SafeKit has proven to be the easiest solution to implement for redundancy and high availability of building management, video management, access control, SCADA software...

Advanced clustering architectures
Several modules can be deployed on the same cluster. Thus, advanced clustering architectures can be implemented:
- the farm+mirror cluster built by deploying a farm module and a mirror module on the same cluster,
- the active/active cluster with replication built by deploying several mirror modules on 2 servers,
- the Hyper-V cluster or KVM cluster with real-time replication and failover of full virtual machines between 2 active hypervisors,
- the N-1 cluster built by deploying N mirror modules on N+1 servers.
