Customize the availability level of your applications

Today, most businesses run a variety of mixed workloads, with varying levels of business criticality. The smartest organizations are sizing and designing their IT infrastructure to meet the availability requirements of their applications and paying only for what they need: fault-tolerant systems for those applications that need to run 24/24/7; or high-availability systems where up to 7 hours of downtime is acceptable.

Simplifying the process of meeting your evolving availability requirements, use Stratus everRun to quickly and cost-effectively deliver the specific levels of continuous availability you need, when and where you need it.

Stratus everRun Services and Products

Organizations operate and provide 24/24/7 always-on services, both externally and internally. If your service suffers a production disruption, your lines cannot operate and productivity and revenues suffer; in building automation and security environments, the premises and people they need to protect are exposed to risks from internal and external threats; in healthcare and public safety, when disruptions occur, lives are at risk.

Penguin Solutions services are complete with 24/24 software maintenance and support, ensuring the security and optimal functioning of your systems.

Penguin Solutions ensures the continuous availability of your applications with an affordable high-availability software solution for general-purpose virtualized workloads (99,95% to 99,99% availability) and a comprehensive software solution that supports both high-availability and fault-tolerant workloads (99,999% availability) for Tier 1 virtualized applications.

Using an always-on connection to Stratus' global support team, the system informs us 24/24/7 in real time about the status of hundreds of critical conditions. If a potential problem arises, the system fixes it itself, requests remote analysis, or uses the fault-tolerant capabilities of our architecture to eliminate faulty modules without any downtime.

Our software solutions leverage these same integrated maintenance principles, monitoring the x86 server pair, host software, and network for more than 150 key operating conditions. If an error is detected, applications are automatically migrated to the other node, with no performance impact and no data loss.
