Sanbolic Microsoft IIS Web Servers HA Solution Available Via AWS Marketplace

Sanbolic
Inc. announced that its Melio
software enabled storage and application availability platform is
available as an Amazon Machine Image (AMI) via AWS
Marketplace for Windows Server website deployments.

It allows users to cluster and scale
out websites on IIS Servers incorporating multiple AWS availability
zones, offering high website availability with IaaS economics.

"We recently launched a SaaS
offering for our trucking fleet management product,"
said Bernie Velivis, Roadnet
Technologies Inc.
"AWS is a cost-effective cloud platform for our SaaS
offering. Sanbolic gives us a great set of tools for building an
availability and scale-out cluster for our website. We are confident
that we can deliver as our product is adopted by more customers."

It aggregates storage across EC2
instances used as storage nodes while providing enterprise storage
and data management features such as RAID, remote replication, QoS,
snapshots and systems functionality through a software layer. The
software provides active-active access to the storage volumes from
all EC2 web serving instances, facilitating scale out and
availability for end users. In addition the agnostic approach to
hardware enables support for storage provided by additional third
parties.

The AppCluster component provides a
clustering service for the Microsoft IIS web servers running on
Amazon EC2. The clusters can span multiple AWS availability groups
for HA, and can be dynamically expanded when needed to support
increased traffic and agility, eliminating the need to replicate
data.

"AWS Marketplace is delighted
to welcome Sanbolic to our ecosystem family," said Sajai
Krishnan, GM, AWS Marketplace. "Sanbolic’s Melio offering
provides customers with a valuable storage solution for building
large, highly available web sites on the AWS cloud."

"Sanbolic’s Melio product is
designed to enable distributed computing while providing availability
and scale out of commonly used applications like IIS-based web
serving," said Momchil Michailov, CEO, Sanbolic. "The
software provides the same functionality whether running on premise
or in the AWS cloud, making it simple for customers to move
applications onto AWS to reduce cost, expand capacity or to ensure
availability."
