FailSafe™

Globalization and the spread of the Internet are making it necessary for companies to conduct business 24 hours a day, 7 days a week regardless of what type of business they are in! UNIX® servers are performing vital business functions and more and more, businesses are dependent on full time reliable access to their UNIX computer systems. Financial impact of a computer system outage is significant regardless of industry.

A recent high-availability study noted "If significant revenue is dependent on an application, it is clearly mission-critical." The loss of this application availability may cause tangible or intangible revenue losses.

So, what does a service downtime cost your business? Clearly, where any service disruption affects productivity and thus profitability of businesses, solutions must be deployed to minimize that disruption.
