Failover Workloads

For servers, it used to make sense to keep a spare system or parts for the existing server available in case of a hardware failure. For software problems, backups were regularly taken and the server was reloaded. For desktops it was less practical to keep a one to one spare ratio. At most, a handful of desktops were kept “in reserve” should one fail. All of this is time consuming and costly.

Why not let your backup device also function as your business continuity and disaster recovery solution? MirrorCloud is capable of hosting virtual workloads of failed servers or desktops. The data is continuously being mirrored from your physical desktop or server into a SmartStyle Environment. Mirrored data can be easily configured to run as a virtual workload. A configuration wizard walks you through the process and in just a short amount of time the desktop or server will be running again.
