| Movies of a mirror and a farm cluster |
| Mirror cluster with SQL Server
| A mirror cluster with Microsoft SQL Server and with real time database replication and failover. |
| Farm cluster with Apache
| A farm cluster with Apache and with network load balancing on a virtual IP address and automatic failover. |
| Movie showing how to configure SafeKit? |
| Application module
| Understand how to configure an application module? Configuration and internal files of SQL Server module. |
| Movies demonstrating SafeKit differentiators |

| File replication
| 2 mirror clusters replicating in the system disk drive C:
Demonstration impossible with shared disk or disk replication solutions.
|
| Synchronous replication
| Understand synchronous replication with NO data loss (contrary to asynchronous replication with data loss). |
| Split brain
| In situation of network isolation, understand how SafeKit manages 2 master servers in a cluster without data corruption (data corruption may happen with a shared disk cluster). |
| Network load balancing
| Understand network load balancing on a virtual IP address with a cluster of 2 Apache servers.
Demonstration WITHOUT network load balancing boxes and without dedicated servers for load balancing. |
| Movies showing advanced failover mechanisms |
| Failback
| View failback and reintegration of replicated files without stopping applications. |
| Module dependency
| Dependency between an Apache farm cluster and a Microsoft SQL Server mirror cluster. If Microsoft SQL Server cluster is down, then Apache cluster stops and wait for SQL Server restart. |
| Master & slaves dependency | A master module manages shared resources (replicated directories, virtual IP address). Slave modules manage individual start and stop of an application. Applications depend on shared resources managed by the master module. View failover dependencies between slaves and master implemented by SafeKit.
