High Availability Implementation, Architecture & Design

Designing the correct high availability implementation for your enterprise
For many enterprises 24 x 7 availability is no longer an option - it is a
necessity. Disaster recovery plans are no longer sufficient as the business demands recovery within a couple of hours - not days.  Recovering from last night's tapes and recapturing lost transactions after a system or application failure is no longer a viable option for many Enterprises in highly competitive industries.

Consultants agree that implementing fast fail over to duplicated resources
provides the highest level of availability in planned and unplanned outages for critical servers and applications.
