Scaling High Availability And Data Resiliency With SANsymphony
Datacore News, March 28th, 2023
Today's application-centric and data-driven economy demands always-on access. Organizations just cannot afford their storage infrastructure to go down when all the mission-critical data is stored and protected there.
Being always-on gets challenging as storage hardware and component failures are bound to happen over time, power outages disrupt connectivity, etc.
With SANsymphony software defined storage, you benefit from THREE LINES OF DEFENSE to ensure business continuity:
- Circumvent storage failures and outages
- Enable recovery at a remote secondary/DR site
- Ensure point-in-time recovery of data from last-known good state
The first line of defense is what we are going to focus in this blog, and specifically cover use cases for scaling out in steps to increase high availability. SANsymphony addresses local site problems such as hardware/component failures by replicating data within a site or metro cluster in real time.
