Keep Your Applications Always On with Stratus Fault-Tolerant Servers

Superior high availability for Microsoft Windows Server®, Red Hat Enterprise Linux® and virtualization workloads

Stratus ftServer® systems prevent downtime and data loss for essential business applications and services.  These servers eliminate the complexity and costs of deploying and managing alternative high-availability and virtualization software solutions.

ftServer Platform

The ftServer fault-tolerant architecture eliminates single points of failure and addresses the hardware, software and serviceability issues that can lead to downtime and corruption or loss of critical data.

Lockstep processing: The system’s duplex hardware components process the same instructions at precisely the same time. If a component fails, its partner simply continues normal operations — without any downtime or data loss. Because replicated components perform the same instructions at the same time, there is zero interruption in processing, zero loss of performance and zero loss of data integrity.

What Fault-Tolerant Servers Can Do For Your Business 

  • Lockstep processing ensures that any errors, even transient errors, are detected and that the system can survive any CPU-memory unit error without interrupting processing and without losing any data or state
  • Multi-path I/O ensures that any I/O operation failure will result in a retry using an alternate path that ensures successful completion of the I/O operation
  • Lockstep architecture stores memory contents in two separate hardware components, protecting in-memory data from hardware failures
  • Should a component fail the ftServer system’s hot-swappable Customer Replaceable Units (CRUs) are easily replaced without tools while the application continues to run
  • Extensive use of status indicator LEDs and keyed components eliminate potential operator errors during service operations
