Description

Evidian SafeKit is a robust software solution aimed at achieving high availability for crucial applications across both Windows and Linux systems. This comprehensive tool combines several features, including load balancing, real-time synchronous file replication, automatic failover for applications, and seamless failback after server outages, all packaged within one product. By doing so, it removes the requirement for additional hardware like network load balancers or shared disks, and it also eliminates the need for costly enterprise versions of operating systems and databases. SafeKit's innovative software clustering allows users to establish mirror clusters that ensure real-time data replication and failover, as well as farm clusters that facilitate both load balancing and failover capabilities. Furthermore, it supports advanced configurations like farm plus mirror clusters and active-active clusters, enhancing flexibility and performance. Its unique shared-nothing architecture greatly simplifies the deployment process, making it particularly advantageous for use in remote locations by circumventing the challenges typically associated with shared disk clusters. In summary, SafeKit provides an effective and streamlined solution for maintaining application availability and data integrity across diverse environments.

Description

Failover Clustering in Windows Server (and Azure Local) allows a collection of independent servers to collaborate, enhancing both availability and scalability for clustered roles, which were previously referred to as clustered applications and services. These interconnected nodes utilize a combination of hardware and software solutions, ensuring that if one node encounters a failure, another node seamlessly takes over its responsibilities through an automated failover mechanism. Continuous monitoring of clustered roles ensures that if they cease to function properly, they can be restarted or migrated to uphold uninterrupted service. Additionally, this feature includes support for Cluster Shared Volumes (CSVs), which create a cohesive, distributed namespace and enable reliable shared storage access across all nodes, thereby minimizing potential service interruptions. Common applications of Failover Clustering encompass high‑availability file shares, SQL Server instances, and Hyper‑V virtual machines. This functionality is available on Windows Server versions 2016, 2019, 2022, and 2025, as well as within Azure Local environments, making it a versatile choice for organizations looking to enhance their system resilience. By leveraging Failover Clustering, organizations can ensure their critical applications remain available even in the event of hardware failures.
