Application Management Framework
Neverfail’s new Application Management Framework (AMF) represents a sea change in the High Availability / Disaster Recovery / Business Continuity Market. Neverfail Continuous Availability Suite, version 5.3 provides the richest set of application monitoring and management in the industry.
Neverfail’s proactive application monitoring and management does away with the time-consuming, cumbersome and complex scripting required by other replication products. Instead, key processes are automated as evidenced by a few of the following features of version 5.3:
- Application Intelligence provides Root Cause Analysis and Automated Corrective Action automatically finding and fixing issues before they cause downtime
- Self-tuning automatically detects and configures protection for new data locations and services in real time, without any operator involvement required
- Intelligent monitoring of the secondary server, an industry first, guarantees passive server processes won’t lock access to target files thus preventing successful data replication
- Point-and-click customization provides deeper levels of application monitoring and management eliminating the need for scripts
Plug-ins
Neverfail’s AMF allows IT administrators to install plug-ins and upgrades “on-the-fly” thus automating yet another previously manual process. With version 5.3, Neverfail now offers plug-ins for the industry’s most diverse set of Windows-based applications including auxiliary applications such as anti-virus, archiving, back-up, anti-spam, and fax products.
Protecting the Ecosystem
While application management is a critical component to providing continuous availability for mission-critical applications, it alone is not enough – the entire IT ecosystem surrounding the application must be considered. Version 5.3 protects the entire ecosystem by providing intelligent insight into all ecosystem components including the physical server hardware, network, applications, data and operating system.
Combining the next generation of application management with full ecosystem protection, Neverfail provides IT administrators with confidence that the application stack as well as the entire IT ecosystem surrounding it remains healthy, and even when issues do occur, mission-critical applications are continuously available to end-users through Neverfail’s Continuous Availability Suite of products.
