SIOS Data Protection Solutions

Ensure the availability and integrity of your
business-critical information

Sometimes bad things happen to good data. Even if you have the most fault-tolerant servers and storage subsystems in the world, your data is still vulnerable to a host of other threats, including application failures, administrator errors, and data center outages.

If you only have a single copy of your most current enterprise information, you have no way to ensure its availability and integrity in the wake of a disaster or other unforeseen event. What would an outage cost your company in terms of lost sales, lost productivity, and strain on your IT resources? What would it cost in terms of SLA penalties or regulatory fines? And what would it cost in terms of customer confidence and bad press?

Losing data is costly. Protecting it doesn’t have to be.

With a SIOS data protection solution, you can safeguard your business-critical information by replicating data so that it can be quickly restored following an unplanned service outage, or seamlessly put into service during planned system maintenance.

  • Prevent data loss to improve Recovery Point Objectives (RPOs): SIOS data protection solutions operate in real-time to ensure that the most recent data is available for recovery – whether your servers are oceans or inches apart. Our unique “any point in time rewind” capability enables you to rewind data to any moment before data loss occurred. In minutes, you can restore your information and resume normal business operations, improving RPOs by an order of magnitude.
  • Lower TCO with simplified management and minimal investment: SIOS software is designed with simplicity in mind, so you don’t need a team of replication gurus to configure and manage your data protection solution. You can streamline routine operations such as store-to-corporate replication by moving away from less-agile strategies like tape backups. Plus, support for sync and async replication modes, sophisticated data compression algorithms that conserve bandwidth, and no need for expensive STONITH devices and quorum servers means a much lower TCO.
  • Minimize database downtime: SIOS solutions extend protection to your back-end databases (including Oracle, DB2, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQL Server) to dramatically improve data availability and integrity. SIOS provides a seamless solution for MySQL data replication. SIOS solutions also eliminate the latency and distance limitations of traditional data replication technologies.
