  1. ContinuousAvailability OperationalSimplicity FinancialAdvantage DRMS - Disaster Recovery Replicate Your Stratus Data

  2. DRMS Disaster Recovery Mirroring System • Real-time data mirroring • High throughput • Hands-free operations • Easy configuration • No application changes • Minimal overhead • Different Platforms

  3. Database DRMS Data Flow Databases Production Server Hot-Backup Server TCP/IP TCP/IP DRMS Primary Servers DRMS Backup Servers UNIX SQL XML Comma Del. Critical I/O Critical I/O User Applicationsw/ DRMS DRMS Servers Database

  4. DRMS Replicates • All file types: • fixed • sequential • relative • stream • 1-way server queue • message queue • VOS internal commands • Batch • Command-line • Macros • Supports dynamic file wild-cards

  5. DRMS is scalable • Replicate data in any direction • Many-to-one operation (A-to-C, B-to-C) • Dual-mode operation (A-to-B, B-to-A) • Supports all VOS platform (PA7100, PA8000,V-Series) • Supports all VOS release • The result: a “Load-Balancing” solution

  6. DRMS is simple • No additional hardware or software • No application changes (not even bind files !) • Use existing communications • One table (standard TIN) to configure • Practically no learning curve

  7. Hands-off operations • Designed for 24x7 hands-off operation from boot to shutdown • No ongoing maintenance required • Line failure & recovery • Line switching - alternate routing • Allows configuration changes without interruption (bouncing the software)

  8. Performance • Designed to preserve Primary application performance and integrity • Operation is “pushed” to remote system immediately • Execution occurs on target system • Reported 5% overhead at full Continuum capacity (@25 TPS)

  9. Online Monitors & Reports • Online monitor: • Total transactions • Transaction processing rate • Queuing activities and statistics • Reports • Daily statistics • By-file/by-I/O type statistics • Error reporting and handling • Debugging traces

  10. Software Vs. Hardware Solutions • No downtime – the data on the backup module is immediately available. • Software solutions are very flexible - you can pick and choose individual files and directories.  (A hardware solution is an all-or-nothing)” • It is easier to incorporate a software solution into DR operations procedures, management of the applications and rapid recovery. • No hardware changes whatsoever; disks continue to be duplexed (hardware solutions require simplexing your disks) • Software solutions are scalable – you can easily mirror from multiple systems into one; A-to-B, B-to-A; all at the same time. • GUI HTML-based monitoring facilities. • No performance impact on Production. • Price / Performance

  11. Customer Testimonials • “DRMS has been stable and has worked reliably since we first installed it in August 97” • “DRMS implementation took about 2 weeks” • “DRMS is very easy to set up and configure” • “During peak time (25 transactions/per second) we've measured an overhead of no more than 5%” • “DRMS reliability and SoftMark's extraordinary responsiveness has made the implementation of our Disaster-Recovery plans an easy, pleasant and trouble-free experience” • “We rate Application Resources and SoftMark as our best vendors in terms of problem/issue turnaround” • “We are extremely pleased with the performance and reliability of DRMS as well as the level of support from Application Resources and SoftMark”
