High Availability Clustering
 
By utilizing redundant components, high availability clustering effectively minimizes single points of failure within your system, thereby minimizing downtime and preventing the loss of critical data. At Urban Technology, our consultants are IBM certified specialists in configuring a high availability cluster to meet all of your application availability needs; minimizing revenue lost due to unscheduled outages. Our knowledge and experience stretches back to the begining of HA offerings in the IBM UNIX sphere. Beginning with a planning session with your corporation's representative, we will map out a high availability cluster configuration that will meet your needs and then set up and configure your cluster with you. Finally, we will provide your I.T. Professionals with the skills needed to maintain and service the cluster. A near fault-tolerant high availability cluster may be exactly what your company requires to properly reach the server availability levels of today's business environment.

HAGeo / GeoRM
 
In today's world, it is necessary to have a disaster recovery strategy in place so that after a significant large-scale disruption, your company can reinstate its computers and their programs in an alternative location in a fast, data-reliable way. GeoRM provides real-time wide-area mirroring of customer data between systems connected by IP based networks. HAGeo builds upon HACMP and GeoRM to automate geographic disaster recovery. By adding a high availability cluster solution, such as HACMP, HAGeo facilitates automatic fail over between systems located in different geographic locations. Both of these solutions are built upon the IBM pSeries RS/6000 platform, the industry standard in large system networking servers and networks.
