Acopia ARX Operational Failover Solutions

In today's business environments, it is essential that a disaster recovery system is in place to ensure business processes can quickly resume as normal in the event of a failure.

The Challenges

Business Continuance - Enterprises today have demanding requirements for ensuring uptime, data availability and timely recovery in the event of a failure
Client Reconfigurations - Many enterprises experience significant downtime and delay when failing over from primary to a disaster recovery system or site, due to the required manual client reconfiguration
Costly disaster recovery solutions - High priced secondary storage and costly software licenses have prevented many companies from implementing off-site disaster recovery solutions for their file storage infrastructure

The Acopia Solution

Acopia ARX supports functionality that allows customers to automate failover from primary to disaster recovery system, with minimal downtime and no client reconfiguration. Acopia Global Presentation Namespace is able to dynamically remap clients to an alternate site in the event of a failure without requiring client reconfiguration, which can dramatically increase recovery times and improve data availability.

Acopia ARX also provides enterprises with the ability to create disk based replicas (both local and off-site) of file data to support disaster recovery. Administrators can define file sets to be asynchronously replicated across a network of Acopia switches between heterogeneous storage targets.

The Benefits

Increased data availability - Increase data availability and protection by eliminating risk and improving the reliability of the backup processes with centralised backup
Reduced CAPEX - Reduce CAPEX by eliminating the need for parallel backup infrastructure at remote sites
Reduced replication windows - Reduce replication windows and wide area network bandwidth requirements by distributing only file changes
