Recovering From a Server Failure

The current techniques and products used to provide recovery from server failures are limited to either:

  • High cost recovery using High Availability clustering (HA) which provides near real-time recovery, or
  • Low cost recovery using backups (tape or disk) with recovery time measured in days
Many servers have inadequate recovery solutions because HA clustering is simply unaffordable.
