AIMstor Realtime Replication

AIMstor Realtime Replication

  • AIMstor Replication offers real-time replication through a centralized data flow console, and provides live copy of data to local and remote sites for maximum uptime and protection. Simplify your data center and reduce the risk of data loss with AIMstor Replication.

    REAL-TIME DATA CAPTURE

    AIMstor saves time
    If you need data recoverable down to the last second for any file or application, AIMstor does it. Our ability to capture and transfer data in real-time gives you the edge you need for maximum protection

    TARGET SPECIFIC APPLICATION

    AIMstor saves time
    Setup any replication scheme in minutes and replicate only what you need, such as SQL, Exchange or File Server data. Target your data intelligently with policy based rules.

    DISTRIBUTED ARCHITECTURE

    Distributed architecture
    Next generation approach allows easy connectivity and management for central and remote sites, physical and virtual machines, file and application data.

    FAST DEPLOYMENT

    Fast Deployment
    Deploy AIMstor on any hardware in minutes and fine tune their policies to their own topology, bandwidth and data transfer needs. Using our Workflow User Interface, AIMstor configures policies and data flows that match your environment in minutes.

    EFFORTLESSLY COMBINES WITH BACKUP AND CDP

    Unified data protection
    The same data stream can be used with AIMstor Backup and CDP for different recovery points and retention needs. Just add them to your policy.

  • Key Features

    Feature
    Benefit
    Bandwidth Throttling
    Enables you to control the amount of bandwidth that the replication product uses.
    Reduced Network Usage
    Allows the line to be used simultaneously with other applications that may exist in the environment. Variable throttling is also supported.
    Schedule Based Throttling
    Allows users to increase bandwidth at off hours.
    Changed Byte Awareness
    Compared to volume replication solutions, which replicate complete volume blocks, AIMstor Realtime File Replication only replicates the changed bytes. If only 10 bytes are written to a file, only those 10 bytes are replicated, not an entire 1k-4k volume block.
    Synchronous Replication
    Transactions are written to the disk and simultaneously written to the destination machine. When the destination machine receives the transaction, the transaction is acknowledged and completed. This is ideal for very high availability applications, where a high bandwidth, low-latency network connection is available.
    Asynchronous Replication
    Transactions are written to disk and sent to the destination machine. Asynchronous is optimal for connections with sporadic efficiency. Transactions are held in memory only before being sent on the network.
    Asynchronous Journaled
    Transactions are written to disk and also put on a journal log file to protect against lost data in the event of system failure. Transactions from the log file are then sent to the destination machine.
    Tolerant Cache
    If the amount of data that needs to be replicated continuously outstrips available bandwidth, data is kept on the source until band width increases for off-load.
    Network Compression
    A selectable and tunable feature, forces compression of data sent across the network, decreasing network usage.
    Express Setup Wizard
    Simple replication setups can be created through the use of a setup wizard.
    Folder to Folder Mirror
    A new option allows you to easily setup a fast drive or folder mirror between 2 machines or VMs. Start Flow, Pause Flow, Reverse Flow, and implement Bi-Directional Flow are simple point/click selections.

    Live Monitoring

    Replication activity can be monitored using the live monitoring facility. Various meters and status icons show the following:

    Feature
    Benefit
    Network outgoing queue
    How full is the network outgoing queue.
    Network incoming queue
    How much received data is still waiting to be processed.
    Network percentage utilization
    How much of the network is currently being utilized.
    Sync in progress
    Indicates that source and destination machines are synchronizing data.
    Sync required
    Indicates that source and destination machines are out of sync and require a resynchronization.

    Unified Information Architecture

    Feature
    Benefit
    Single Software Licenses
    All AIMstor components, such as Replicate, are licensed within the general framework of AIMstor, so that you may benefit from the centralized elements of Unified Information Management.
    Common Code Base Library
    All AIMstor components (Live Backup, CDP, Track, etc.) utilize the exact same code base for all their processes.
    Unified Solution
    AIMstor is a transformational software solution that offers a large array of common code based Operations, with multiple product sets emanating from each.

    Replication Topologies

    Feature
    Benefit
    One-to-One
    One machine to another machine.
    Many-to-One
    Many machines to one machine.
    One-to-Many
    One machine to many machines.
    Symmetrical Two-way Mirroring
    Replicate directories between two machines, allowing either to master the data. Uses include simple WAN file system, and as a failover system when either machine may become the master.
    Many-to-Many
    A combination of the above topologies used together, typically with groups of systems.

    True Active Synchronization

    Feature
    Benefit
    On Demand Synchronization
    Provides flexible synchronization to establish the initial point of consistency between source and destination. Can be done at the initial setup when both source and destination are synchronized, or when desired for subsequent resynchronization.
    Active System Synchronization
    Allows synching even when the applications are up and in use.
    Granular File I/O Replication
    Highly granular replication system allows you to tightly define the type of data that is replicated through the policy classification. Unlike volume replication systems which replicate all contents on the volume, you can be more specific with what you replicate thereby saving bandwidth and storage space.

  • Replication Screenshots and Supported Topologies

    Topology is inherently flexible. AIMstor is engineered to connect to AIMstor nodes in virtually any manner. This capability can help you meet needs in ways never before offered in the market.

    Replication Data Flow and Topologies
    The Replication Operation can be combined with other AIMstor Operations, such as CDP or Backup, to create one single policy for many types of Data Protection. Fine tuning items such as Bandwidth throttling, transfer mode and other parameters is easily done within the Workflow User Interface.
