NeverFail releases Continuous Availibility for VMware

Press Release:

Neverfail for VMware VirtualCenter offers advanced proactive monitoring of VMware VirtualCenter Server and its underlying environment by constantly checking the health of the hardware, network infrastructure, operating system and the management server software itself. If an issue arises with VMware VirtualCenter Server or one of its components, the system fails over to a secondary server which contains all data and maintains connectivity to VMware VirtualCenter until the outage can be resolved. The entire failover process is transparent and IT administrators can continue utilizing the management features of VMware VirtualCenter.

“The remarkable uptake of virtualization in companies of all sizes has resulted in far greater efficiency in the data center, whether it is through cost-savings or the ability to manage resources based on key business needs,” said Peter Parker, Neverfail Group CEO. “VMware VirtualCenter manages the entire virtual infrastructure, and by offering a continuous availability solution for this product, Neverfail ensures that both IT administrators and end users experience the full benefits that virtualization has to offer.”
