Additional Product Information

SafeKit technology makes any application available 24 hours per day. SafeKit technology has been successfully proven over a number of years, securing the mission-critical aspects of Evidian's OpenMaster and AccessMaster applications on an international installed base, and in different contexts: internet, telecom, administration and security.;Now SafeKit is available directly to users wishing to maximize application availability. It represents a new approach to the problem of 24-hours-per-day availability for present-day applications, and can also provide a flexible way to share the processing load between multiple systems.;Telco operators, banks, system integrators, software publishers, hardware suppliers and e-tailers are all faced with the problem of making applications available 24 hours a day. They know that hardware failures are just one of the things that you need to protect against. In fact, nowadays, the most common availability-threatening problems are random software bugs, application crashes, version updates that destabilize production applications, and human error.;Without modifying either the application or the hardware, SafeKit provides high availability and fail-over in spite of these problems:;* SafeKit Web Edition balances the load between two web servers. If one server fails, the other automatically takes over;* With the clustering features of SafeKit Professional Edition, you can distribute applications over multiple servers so that, even if one system fails completely, the others continue to serve the users ;* For applications that modify databases, its mirroring features automatically switch operations to a secondary server if the primary server fails
