Accelerating Satellite WANs with Riverbed | 2006-12-07 | Riverbed |
| Are satellite connections making collaboration across your WAN nearly impossible? That's no surprise, given the high latency and low bandwidth that is endemic to satellite links. Application performance is often very poor, challenging teams around the globe. This solutions brief explains how using wide-area data services (WDS) can enable more robust, LAN-like performance over satel¬lite connections with out-of-the-box compatibility that accelerates the broadest range of applications remote workers need to function ef¬fectively over the WAN.

Data Center - Site Selection for Business Continuance | 2007-04-14 | Cisco Systems |
| Centralized data centers have helped many Enterprises achieve substantial productivity gains and cost savings. These data centers house mission-critical applications, which must be highly available. The demand on data centers is therefore higher than ever before. Data center design must focus on scaling methodology and achieving high availability. A disaster in a single data center that houses Enterprise applications and data has a crippling affect on the ability of an Enterprise to conduct business. Enterprises must be able to survive any natural or man-made disaster that may affect the data center. This paper describes how application recovery, disaster recovery, and business continuance are achieved through site selection, site-to-site recovery, and load balancing.

Novell Case Study: Jan Linders | 0000-00-00 | Novell |
| As a retailer of fresh and frozen foods, Jan Linders depends on efficient internal processes to keep its stores stocked with quality goods. To help manage its supply chain operations, the company uses DistRetail ERP software from Dutch company VCD and MLS Warehouse Management System software from Fujitsu Services. These applications were previously running under SCO UnixWare on aging hardware, and availability was an issue as the business grew. Aiming to increase the availability of these core systems through a clustered server solution, Jan Linders looked to renew its server infrastructure, with cost reduction as a secondary objective. Jan Linders implemented Novell Open Enterprise Server as the strategic platform for its ERP and warehouse management systems.

Architecting Availability and Disaster Recovery Solutions | 2007-04-12 | Sun Microsystems |
| Companies world-wide are facing increasing legal requirements for both protecting and retaining data for auditing purposes. This business obligation is forcing IT departments to ensure that their availability and disaster recovery systems are sufficient to comply with these demands. In addition, as a result of the global economy, internal and external customers expect higher levels of service availability. Together, compliance and increased user demand are creating more pressure on tight IT budgets. Many IT departments try to minimize costs by combining an availability solution with a disaster recover strategy.

Configurable Isolation: Building High Availability Systems With Commodity Multi-Core Processors | 2007-04-02 | Association for Computing Machinery |
| High availability is an increasingly important requirement for enterprise systems, often valued more than performance. Systems designed for high availability typically use redundant hardware for error detection and continued uptime in the event of a failure. Chip multiprocessors with an abundance of identical resources like cores, cache and interconnection networks would appear to be ideal building blocks for implementing high availability solutions on chip. Increasing silicon and transient fault rates with future technology scaling exacerbate the problem. This paper proposes a novel, cost-effective, architecture for high availability systems built from future multi-core processors. This paper proposes a new chip multiprocessor architecture that provides configurable isolation for fault containment and component retirement, based upon cost-effective modifications to commodity designs.
