WANSync is a data protection solution that uses asynchronous real-time replication to provide cost-effective disaster recovery capabilities for Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, Microsoft IIS webservers, file servers, and other applications on 32- and 64-bit Windows, AIX, Linux and Solaris servers. Our data protection solution is fully certified for Windows 2000 and Windows Server 2003.

WANSync offers asynchronous data replication over LAN or WAN of database and other files from a production server to one or more local or geographically distant replica servers. Our data replication software offers rapid data recovery, integrated continuous data protection as a guard against data corruption, and completely non-disruptive automatic testing of your disaster recovery system. Our data protection solution system sets the standard for ease of configuration and management.

When disaster strikes, because anything that puts a stop to your ability to do business is a disaster, it is critical that your response is urgent and effective. Whether a flood or a blackout, or the more probable virus attack or user error, your data recovery software must be able to quickly react with minimal data loss. Otherwise, you risk losing productivity, revenue, customers and opportunities, perhaps even the viability of your entire business.

WANSync data replication, data protection solution and data recovery software helps ensure that you are ready to respond.

WANSync is a cost-effective data replication solution that protects access to mission-critical application servers through a wide range of disruptions, from server failure to data corruption to the loss of an entire site.

WANSync data replication provides:

• Asynchronous host-based software data replication that transfers changes to application data as they occur to a standby replica server located locally or over the WAN
• Continuous data protection solution based on XOsoft’s Rewind Technology for recovery from data corrupted by virus action or user or application error
• Application and data recovery software to automatically recover data from the replica
• Tailored support for Microsoft Exchange, SQL Server, Oracle, and file servers, as well as other applications
• Replication of all file data and metadata, including ACLs
• Unique ease of installation with no application or user downtime, automated remote installation, and wizard-driven creation of new disaster recovery scenarios
• Assessment mode measures exact change rate during evaluation to aid in estimating bandwidth requirements

Open File Manager is enterprise-class software that enables your backup application to also back up open and in-use files, ensuring business continuity and protection of mission-critical data. It is a reliable, easy-to-use, disk-level open file solution that is cost-effective and scalable from workstations to servers. And Open File Manager consistently captures open and in-use files and relational applications, even if they are changing during the backup – all without locking users out of applications or forcing them to log off the network.

In addition, Open File Manager supports coherent backup of corporate data while it remains in use and serves system administrators in their most critical mission – assuring secure, efficient, round-the-clock operation of their corporate infrastructure. With Open File Manager working alongside a company’s backup software, popular databases, applications and servers like Oracle SQL Server, Exchange Server and Lotus Notes can be in use and running while backup occurs. Because backups can be run at any time without the risk of skipped or corrupt files, the need for a specific “backup window” has now been “closed.”

Open File Manager seamlessly works with leading backup software, including Computer Associates BrightStor ARCserve, VERITAS Backup Exec and NetBackup, IBM Tivoli Storage Manager, Hewlett-Packard Data Protector, EMC/LEGATO NetWorker and many more.

Open File Manager supports data protection in high availability environments, enabling
your backup software to back up open and in-use files without taking users offline or interrupting systems use.

Open File Manager provides enhanced clustering capabilities for data protection in high
availability environments. It automatically detects volume mounts and dismounts. If failover occurs during a backup, Open File Manager will automatically un-synchronize and then re-synchronize, allowing the new volume to join the current backup, ensuring the highest standard for data protection.

Open File Manager enhances storage management frameworks such as Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS). Open File Manager has components that integrate with VSS to ensure that legacy and non-VSS compliant business applications are captured correctly.

Open File Manager has three license levels — Enterprise Server, Server, and Workstation — based on the operating system of the targeted machine.
