Software high availability in a data center

Save costs with software failover clusters on Windows and Unix

Data centers are using SafeKit for their critical applications to reduce hardware clustering costs and to solve the following problems:

Software failure of a critical application: software bug, overloaded service, regression on software update.
Human error when administering a critical application: too complex failover solution and inability to properly restart a critical service.
Hardware and environment failure: including the complete failure of a computer room.

Software high availability in a data center: an application centric solution

SafeKit has the following advantages in a data center:

it is an hardware independent solution which can be implemented on the existing physical or virtual servers of the data center infrastructure,
it combines three products in one: network load balancer, replicated SAN, high availability toolkit. Moreover, as SafeKit is a toolkit, each feature can be configured or not according your need,
it allows to put application servers in remote computer rooms to withstand the loss of a full room,
it offers a uniform high availability solution for Windows and Unix applications,
it is a user-friendly solution which allows to avoid human error.
