Enterprises today require continuous data and application availability across a wide array of operating systems, applications, hardware components, and data center locations. Symantec consultants can help you architect, design, implement, optimize, and manage a solution to support multi-vendor environments and achieve the availability levels required by your business.

Combined with industry standards, best practices, and world-class software, Symantec solutions encompass hardware redundancy, clustering, replication, and data mirroring technologies to help you ensure the availability, stability, and scalability that your users expect.

Challenges

Applications need to be accessible and data must be current regardless of whether you are trying to achieve high availability locally at a single site, across a short haul metropolitan area network, or or across a full wide-area global network.

While clustering technologies can help ensure application availability, the application is only as good as the data being utilized. To prepare for a site outage, data replication technologies need to be deployed with clustering technologies to provide an integrated disaster recovery solution—so that both the application and the data can be accessed at a secondary site, without distance limitations and with minimal disruption.

Solutions

Symantec consultants can help you simplify the deployment and operations of heterogeneous clustering and replication solutions. Symantec can provide high availability for any enterprise—regardless of your data center infrastructure and availability of SAN and network connections. Our consultants can help assess your environment to determine the optimal architecture and technologies to achieve your business availability needs.

Symantec consultants can help your IT staff use clusters to achieve availability of applications while achieving maximum hardware utilization. By migrating to an integrated Symantec clustering solution that works across your heterogeneous environment, you can significantly simplify your clustering operations.

To prepare for a site outage or planned maintenance, Symantec consultants can also help you safely and securely replicate data to a remote location. The testing of failover and disaster recovery plans is not easy, but our consultants have the know-how and tools to help you test, plan, and validate disaster recovery scenarios without disruption.
