SIOS DataKeeper Cluster Edition lets you build a cluster using your choice of industry-standard hardware and locally attached storage in a SANless configuration in a wide variety of configurations. SIOS SANless clusters not only eliminate the cost, complexity, and single-point-of-failure risk of a SAN cluster, they also enable you to leverage the latest in flash and SSD storage for performance and protection in a single cost-efficient solution.

This limits your configuration to one data center availability zone and if there is a failure there, you can lose access to application services. SIOS software makes the right decision to maintain optimal reliability and availability. Getting back up running fast and reliably are key high availability requirements for critical applications. VMware HA requires a full reboot and restart of the complete application and OS virtual machine environment on a failure.

Depending on the application and environment, this can take a long time — 30 minutes or more in many cases. SIOS software by design recovers quickly and accurately because the standby node is always ready and available with preconfigured and allocated resources.

Since there is no need to reboot, only application services need to start. And since resources are already allocated, availability and performance are restored quickly. This can usually happen in minutes. With SIOS software you get the benefit of application availability even during maintenance and software upgrades.

And if a software upgrade failure occurs, rolling back to the previous version of application or OS is just as simple. Unreliable available solutions simply make no sense. Reliable recovery from failures is integral to the design of SIOS cluster software. This means that appropriate resources needed to run the application during the critical recovery phases are assured.

Memory, CPU, storage, and network resources are allocated and ready to run when needed — no failed recoveries! And simple recovery systems replicate the boot and application environment, not just the data. That means any errors, viruses, or corruption on the primary node boot environment are completely replicated to the standby; meaning the whole availability environment may be compromised or may never restart on a failure.
