everRun
everRun unites a pair of industry-standard x86 servers to eliminate single points of failure, but shields the application and redundant platform through a patented virtualization layer. everRun creates a virtual Windows server environment where the application is installed, operated and managed. The entire configuration presents itself as a single stand-alone server, with just one identity and IP address.
everRun provides a simpler, more reliable availability solution than the most widely used option in the marketplace today - clustering.
everRun is turn-key, automated, and simple. everRun uses embedded intelligent policy management to resolve faults & failures. The primary benefit to the end user is that applications continue to ComputeThru® platform faults & failures, without needing to modify or script theapplication.
Architecting and implementing a fault-tolerant Microsoft Windows environment.
From HP and Marathon Technologies comes a simple, affordable fault- and disaster-tolerant platform for Microsoft Windows that requires no proprietary hardware or customized applications to achieve zero-downtime performance. Built on HP BladeSystem and HP ProLiant servers running Microsoft Windows Server 2003, this solution delivers the industry's highest levels of availability for any Windows application by isolating the application and its data from the common causes of downtime without the interruption or complexity of failover. The result is a highly-available, highly-reliable, highly-manageable platform that ensures that mission-critical applications are always on.
This document compares the two approaches with the intent of providing a conceptual framework for understanding the relative merits and applications of fault tolerance achieved through the use of Marathon Endurance FTvirtual Server on HP ProLiant servers.
