Atos enhances its high-availability Evidian SafeKit software
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Through its technology brand Bull, Atos is launching Evidian SafeKit 7 Evolution
2, a replication solution with 3 nodes that combines high availability of
mission-critical applications and disaster recovery.
Bezons, 30 November 2016 - Atos, an international leader in digital services,
announced today via its technology brand Bull the development of its high-
availability software, Evidian Safekit: a 3-node replication further enhancing
the capabilities for disaster recovery without compromising the simplicity of
implementation and operation.
Evidian, the European leader in identity and access management (IAM), offers
solutions guaranteeing that only the right people access the right resources
with the required rights for the right business reasons. Evidian Safekit
guarantees 24/7 operation of mission-critical applications quickly and simply.
The unavailability of identity and access management in a company means that
users cannot authenticate themselves and therefore have no access to their
applications. That is why Evidian's IAM offer includes an option for business
continuity and for load-balancing: SafeKit. This purely software-based solution
is generic and can be applied to other critical applications in many diverse
areas (finance, transport, telecom, health, etc.). Evidian SafeKit is a high-
availability software combining load-balancing, real-time replication of data
and automatic application failover after a hardware or a software failure. Using
SafeKit is very simple and does not require any particular know-how in the
domain of high availability. It can be implemented in a standard hardware
infrastructure which may be virtualised.
Today, SafeKit offers a new functionality for 3-node replication on Windows. The
3-node replication is an extension of the mirror application module. It
replicates data on a third node which is to be held at a remote recovery
location after a disaster (DR or Disaster Recovery site).
Louis-Marie Fouchard, Business unit Manager Identity & Access Management (IAM)
at Atos, explains: "Software publishers very often produce applications that run
on Windows. However, the standard clustering solution does not offer synchronous
real-time replication - and even less 3-node replication. Everything is left to
the external storage system, which is time-consuming and complex to configure.
This complex setup and the cost of clustering hardware are incompatible with the
requirements of a software publisher who wishes to add a software option with
high availability to his catalogue - one that is simple and straightforward to
implement. Besides, clients are very demanding when it comes to high
availability of critical applications. For example, they request a 3-node
replication in 3 separate computer rooms. One of the computer rooms is rather
special: it is a disaster recovery room for failover when the other two rooms
are out of service. Always keeping in mind the concept of an easy-to-use
product, the deployment of this 3-node replication solution with SafeKit is just
as easy as a deployment with 2 nodes. Everything is integrated in the web
administration console. Evidian SafeKit differentiates itself once again on the
high-availability market by its simplicity to operate, despite its extremely
advanced functionalities, such as the 3-node replication."
