everRun® MX: Always-on Application Availability For Windows Environments
Welcome to the Always-On World
We live in an always-on world. Not only do your users and customers expect around-the-clock access to your business – they demand it. To be successful, you must meet the needs of the always-on world by being an always-on business. Organizations today can no longer afford to accept system downtime as standard practice.
Are You Still Reacting to Failures?
If you’re like most organizations, you react to system failures. When a failure occurs systems go down, applications become unavailable to users, business operations stop and IT staff is called upon to perform a recovery. This downtime can have a huge impact on sales, mission-critical operations, employee productivity, and client satisfaction. Nevertheless, you settle for downtime in the event of a failure because you really have had no choice. Until now.
You No Longer Have to Settle
You no longer have to settle for application downtime or the risk of data loss in the event of a system failure. Now you can move from a reactive, recovery-based model in which downtime is a given in the event of failures, to a new prevention-based model, in which downtime is prevented and you have continuous application availability. Your organization can compute through failures and have always-on application availability, and the beauty is you can have this in a simple and affordable solution that requires very little IT intervention.
Application Availability with everRun MX
Marathon’s everRun MX is the world’s first software-based, fault tolerance solution that supports single and Symmetric multi-processor and multi-core Microsoft applications. Now businesses with limited IT resources can have a simple and affordable solution to keep applications available during system failures to ensure continuous business operations. With everRun MX, all your multi-processor Microsoft applications can have fault tolerant protection for a cost that is lower than today’s recovery-based, high availability solutions.
How everRun MX Works
everRun MX provides full fault tolerance to multi-processor applications that require 100% uptime. Using patented technology, everRun MX combines the physical resources of two standard Windows servers into a single operating environment with complete redundancy of all underlying hardware and data. everRun MX presents these redundant servers as a single operating environment to keep applications running in the event of component or system failures.
The everRun MX software operates in lockstep ensuring redundancy of the hardware, data, and networks, to provide automated fault management. This ensures true continuous availability for applications that simply cannot have any downtime, or lose 'in-flight' transactions.
