Disaster Recovery

Fortis Disaster recovery is a packaged solution that includes replicated Fortis software, services and Double-Take licenses. The core function to the DR solution is Double-Take. Double-Take creates a unique, real-time data protection solution that virtually eliminates your fear of data loss or system downtime. This product works behind the scenes enabling your company to provide uninterrupted service to your customers and employees, even when disaster strikes.

Power failures, hardware malfunction, software failures, human error, acts of God, and even criminal acts - they all pose a risk to your business continuity. Double-Take continuously replicates byte-level changes from server to server in a highly efficient format, minimizing bandwidth utilization.

In the event of a system failure or disaster, Double-Take's failover capabilities allow a secondary server to stand in automatically for the primary server, providing you with 99.99% availability - less than 55 minutes downtime per year! Operations continue with minimal interruption and confusion.

Fortis Disaster Recovery and Double-Take can help you with these challenges:

• Local high availability - One-to-one, many-to-one, and many-to-many server monitoring and failover / fail back provides extraordinary flexibility and reliability.
  
  
• Off-site disaster recovery - Coupling Double-Take with Windows Powered NAS devices provides a low-cost, highly scalable alternative to traditional disaster recovery approaches.
  
  
• Storage consolidation and enhanced centralized backup - Enables centralized, 24x7 backup of open files using your existing backup hardware and software without the need for open file agents.
  
  
• Hardware/software/operating system upgrades/migration - Transparent failover capability coupled with on-line data mirroring and replication facilitates migration with no production system downtime.
  
  
• Content distribution - One-to-many (-to-many) replication for automatic content distribution.
  
  

When you cannot provide information, you lose sales. Moreover, along with the lost revenue, you stand to lose customer loyalty. Customers expect instantaneous service. When downtime prohibits that level of service, customers look elsewhere and may not return. Fortis Disaster Recovery all but eliminates that risk.
