Single Server Protection

Ensuring high availability (HA) for critical applications is a well-established IT best practice, but non-mission critical applications also require robust uptime protection. This is where SIOS Single Server Protection comes in. Downtime for these applications can deplete IT resources, necessitating significant time and effort to restore functionality. Moreover, when non-mission critical applications experience outages, it disrupts end users’ work, leading to frustration and potentially harming customer satisfaction.

  • Simple to deploy and manage for low TCO.
  • Application monitoring tools simply perform an application restart. SIOS is designed to restore application operation as quickly and non-disruptively as possible.
  • Supports applications running on Windows and Linux, across physical, cloud and virtual environments.

To ensure an important application remains operational, every layer of its supporting infrastructure must be functional, compatible, and accessible. Comprehensive monitoring across the entire stack is key to increased availability, but many traditional tools only monitor the operating status of the server node the application is running on.

SIOS Single Server Protection delivers comprehensive monitoring and automated response for a wide range of Windows or Linux environments, whether on-premises or in the cloud.

Unlike high availability (HA) solutions, SIOS Single Server Protection doesn’t require secondary servers or IP failover orchestration. Instead, it manages resources for individual applications. When its comprehensive monitoring detects an issue, it automatically responds quickly and appropriately. Advanced automation reduces the need for manual IT intervention.

SIOS Single Server Protection ensures that important but not critical applications remain accessible in a non-HA configuration. If business needs change and these applications become critical, the solution can be easily upgraded to full high availability/disaster recovery clustering by adding secondary and/or tertiary nodes. The intelligence behind enhanced availability solutions continues to be valuable even in an HA environment, helping optimize primary operations and reduce downtimes.
