December 23, 2014 by sios2017

SIOS DataKeeper Cluster Edition Recognized for Excellence

SAN MATEO, CA – December 22, 2014 – SIOS Technology Corp. (www.us.sios.com), maker of SAN and #SANLess clustering software products, today announced that TMC, a global, integrated media company, named SIOS DataKeeper Cluster Edition as a 2014 Data Center Excellence Award winner, presented by infoTECH Spotlight.

SIOS DataKeeper Cluster Edition software enables SANLess clustering for high availability and disaster protection in Windows Server Failover Clustering environments. It protects data in physical, virtual, and cloud environments and provides enterprise-class protection for all server workloads at a fraction of the cost of SAN-based replication. SIOS DataKeeper synchronizes local storage in different cluster nodes using fast, efficient, block-level replication to transfers data with minimal bandwidth and delivers incredibly fast replication speeds without the need for additional hardware accelerators or compression devices. It enables high availability cluster protection without the cost or single point of failure risk of SAN-based clusters.

“SOIS DataKeeper Cluster Edition lets customers build a cluster using their choice of industry-standard hardware and local attached storage in a SANLess configuration, making them easy to use and easy to own,” said Jerry Melnick, COO, SIOS Technology. “SIOS lets you run your business critical applications in a physical, virtual or cloud environment without sacrificing performance, high availability or disaster protection.”

“SIOS has displayed its commitment to quality and innovation in the development of the data center industry,” said Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC. “I look forward to witnessing continued excellence from SIOS and their efforts toward improving the future of the data center industry.”

The 2014 Data Center Excellence Award recognizes the most innovative and enterprising data center vendors who offer infrastructure or software, servers or cooling systems, cabling or management applications.

Storage Newsletter — Mavis Discount Tire Keeps Servers Rolling

December 19, 2014 by <a href="http://www.storagenewsletter.com/rubriques/customer-wins/mavis-discount-tire-keeps-servers-rolling/">StorageNewsletter.com</a> Leave a Comment

SIOS Technology Corp., maker of SAN and SANLess clustering software products, announced that Mavis Discount Tire is using SIOS DataKeeper Cluster Edition software to ensure HA for its mission-critical SQL Server applications.

Mavis Discount Tire

Mavis Discount Tire is a New York-based tire retailer with 150 stores throughout the northeastern US. The company relies on business critical applications running on SQL Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Edition and SQL Server 2012 Enterprise Edition to manage their orders, inventory, and other business-critical processes. For retail stores, application performance is a critical priority.

“Our retail stores need fast, reliable access to these applications to operate,” said Edward Schwartz, CIO, Mavis Discount Tire. “To keep customer satisfaction high, we cannot afford slow response times or downtime.”

The company needed a way to provide HA protection for its SQL Server applications and databases that would not impede performance. The company considered using traditional clustering using Windows Server Failover Clustering (WSFC). However, to implement a traditional cluster solution and maintain the high level of performance they needed, Mavis Discount Tire would have required multiple SANs and both dedicated and redundant external switches.

“While a traditional WSFC environment would have protected our applications from downtime, it requires SAN storage which adds cost, complexity, and performance overhead,” said Schwartz.

Since the company does not store large volumes of data, they saw little value in the storage benefits of deploying external SANs. They were also concerned about the performance impact that SAN storage could have had on the highly transactional SQL Server databases.

The Mavis Discount Tire IT department chose SIOS SANLess software to provide HA and DR protection without the need for a SAN.

“We used WSFC to create two node clusters for our SQL environments in the same way a traditional cluster is created,” said Schwartz. “We simply added SIOS DataKeeper Cluster Edition software to enable the cluster to use local storage in a SANLess configuration.”

The SIOS software uses performance optimized host-based replication to synchronize local storage on the primary and standby nodes in the cluster so that it appears to the WSFC as a SAN. SIOS #SANLess cluster software provides HA without slowing performance. They also eliminated the single point of failure risk of a shared storage cluster.

“The SIOS DataKeeper Cluster Edition software is a good technology for a company that is growing rapidly. It is easy to use and eliminates the need to buy unnecessary SAN hardware or redundant switches,” said Schwartz.

“SIOS is providing opportunities for the creation of SAN and SANLess clusters for physical, virtual and cloud environments,” said Jerry Melnick, COO, SIOS Technology. “SIOS DataKeeper is a virtual SAN that runs under the application layer of SQL Server, allowing Mavis Tire to create SANLess clusters and benefit from all advantages of a second SAN without the performance challenges and added costs.”
