High Availability (HA)

Our mission is to keep your systems up and running without experiencing any downtime. We realize this is easier said than done. Outages will always happen, but Nexus will be there to help. Advancements in Managed Services, VMware VI3, Continuous Data Protection, and Clustering have all contributed to enable us to help our customers mitigate their risk before and after an outage occurs. We offer your organization a wide range of options about how to get the job done.

 

Staying Ahead of the Problem
Nexus provides professional services help to assess your environment, while recommending tools, solutions and best practices to help you operate in a more efficient manner. Our experience comes from helping hundreds of organizations leverage existing resources and integrate some of the latest architecture and technology. Here’s a few examples of new technology Nexus helps with HA:

• VMware VMotion, VMHA, and VMDRS
  Have Virtual Servers automatically failover from one box to the next, with no manual intervention. VMHA will automatically restart Virtual Servers (VM’s) on separate ESX3 Servers in your environment. VMDRS will allow you to get a load balancing effect from V-Motioning Virtual Servers across physical servers running ESX3. This helps you avoid Virtual Server resource constraint and potential crashing during peak utilization.
• Continuous Data Protection (CDP)
  Go beyond any previous data protection scheme and take RTO and RPO to new heights. With CDP, Nexus can provide data rewinding and IP/DNS failover to provide the ultimate in application availability.
• Capacity Optimized Storage & VTL (faster recover from disk rather than tape)
  Go tapeless. With disk-based Virtual Tape Libraries (VTL’s) or disk-based systems that “de-duplicate” on average of 20 to 1, you have the option for higher performance and better cost efficiency.

< Go Systems When>
Nexus offers a wide range of services to help when you need it, where you need it. Whether you need a hot spare server or a systems engineer to come out and troubleshoot your environment, Nexus will be there when it counts.
