Your Challenge: Your organization requires fail-proof strategies and solutions for disaster recovery in case of catastrophic events. These strategies often require large investments in duplicate infrastructure and redundant hardware to ensure 24/7 availability.
Our Solution: Virtual Iron supports more efficient disaster recovery strategies by eliminating the need for identical hardware at the back-up site. This hardware independence makes server consolidation more practical as secondary data centers can use less expensive hardware, reducing equipment and space costs.
Since the physical hardware is abstracted and virtualized, the applications and operating systems see a consistent and stable platform. Failover can occur transparently without the need to reconfigure the operating systems and applications. In the event of a failure virtual servers at the secondary site can boot up and start servicing requests as if they were still in the primary site.
