RecoverGuard V5.4 (From $2,000/Server/Year) by Continuity Software

With DR capacity management, multiple can schedule support, extended IBM platform support

Continuity Software announced the availability of RecoverGuard version 5.4 (v5.4) featuring enhancements intended to target the specific needs of enterprise-class business organizations, including DR Capacity Management and Multiple Scan Schedule Support, as well as extended IBM platform support and almost 500 new risk signatures.

Global companies can ensure DR, HA and SLA compliance across their geographically distributed primary production, remote DR and private cloud computing environments.

RecoverGuard v5.4’s new features and benefits include:

  • DR Capacity Management – Ensures recovery site computing and storage capacity meets business goals; auto-notification provided when recovery site capacity misaligns with requirements.
  • Multiple Scan Schedule Support – Enables users to add and support multiple verification schedules across an unlimited number of countries, continents and time zones.
  • Added IBM Platform Support – DS 6xxx, 8xxx and XIV as well as all native replication protocols (i.e., Global Mirror, Metro Mirror, FlashCopy, Global Copy, snapshots and remote mirroring). Look at RecoverGuard’s extensive Support Matrix.
  • Over 4,900 Risk Signatures – almost 500 new risk signatures added as a result of direct feedback from enterprise customers; RecoverGuard database continuously updated to ensure all of the most prevalent, as well as the rarest of potential risks can be proactively discovered and eliminated.

Architecting IT to mitigate business risk is just the first step to true HA and DR. Configuration drift remains a constant challenge. Standby systems become out-of-sync as the production environment constantly changes, the data center staff work to manually apply the changes to the HA and DR systems, and inevitably – changes slip through. Annual, even semi-annual, testing has proven to be unsuccessful – confirming instead that the systems are out-of-sync and the IT environment highly vulnerable.

"Today’s enterprise-class business organizations are extremely adept at defining their high availability and disaster recovery strategy, as well as building a program to support their pre-defined recovery time and recovery point objectives (RTO and RPO). However, where most fall short is in their ability to track compliance with these goals. Given the size, globally distributed, dynamic nature of today’s enterprise, to try to do so manually is quite simply a daunting task, that often times is neglected," said David A. Chapa, Senior Analyst, Enterprise Strategy Group. "RecoverGuard v5.4 is a tool that can help its users to make certain that they do not fall below their minimum thresholds and thereby ensure they maintain SLA compliance."

"Indeed, today’s enterprise data centers are extremely large, incredibly complex and being changed/updated on a constant basis. To attempt to compare production and recovery sites, as well as private cloud infrastructures on a daily basis is not a trivial endeavor," said Doron Pinhas, Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Continuity Software. "This is however exactly what RecoverGuard continuously and completely transparently accomplishes. RecoverGuard finds all gaps and vulnerabilities as they happen – instead of waiting 6 months to a year – during which time the company is unprotected. Moreover, with RecoverGuard’s v5.4 enhancements customers can rest assured that their highly distributed, business critical data and applications will remain highly-available and protected in the face of any manmade or natural disaster."

RecoverGuard v5.4 is available at a starting price of US $2,000 per server/per year.
