The need for a business continuity strategy has been made abundantly clear from man-made accidents such as power failures to natural disasters such as hurricanes and earthquakes.
Given these inherent risks, enterprises are making large investments in infrastructure to ensure that applications are always available for their business users and customers. Today’s organizations require fail-proof solutions for high availability when localized software or equipment fails and disaster recovery when a data center is faced with catastrophic events.

The Challenge:
Existing approaches like high-availability clustering and failover software are meeting the need for business continuity, but major challenges remain:
- Significant cost of idle hardware and software.
- Extremely expensive specialized disaster recovery software and services.
- Complex management environments.
- Running out of weekends to perform system maintenance.
- Inefficient use of idle resources that are primarily in place for redundancy.
