  Major Updates of ClusterReplica ENT 3.0
for
VMware, MSSQL and IIS Web Server Real-Time Replication and Failover

Milpitas, Calif. – August 1, 2009 – XLink Technology Inc. (www.xlink.com), a leading software developer in business continuity and data protection solutions, announces today the latest updates of ClusterReplica Enterprise 3.0.

ClusterReplica Enterprise, based on CDP technology, replicates VMware guest OS, SQL database, IIS web server and regular file server data in real-time. ClusterReplica also provides automatic Failover over LAN and WAN for server high availability and disaster recovery. ClusterReplica Enterprise is a software with flexibility in scaling and modeling, binding up to 8 Windows systems into one clustering.

Designed for small-to-medium businesses, ClusterReplica Enterprise provides the automatic configuration for the VMware guest OS, MSSQL and IIS web server data replication, and the easy-to-use graphic user interface. ClusterReplica Enterprise is a cost-effective software that provides enterprise level of services at a fraction of their cost.

We have been working intensively since ClusterReplica ENT release on its feature and performance enhancements.

Major updates in the latest build version:

1.       Improved support for large size of guest OS in VMware server 2.0.

2.       Improved support for synchronizing huge number of files in a replication set.

3.       Better performance on heavy SQL Read/Write operations.

4.       Adding a “Time Updated” display for replication of modified data.

5.       Supports Windows Clustering

Key features and benefits:

Platforms

  • Protects VMware guest OS, SQL 2008/2005/2000, IIS and file servers
  • Supports Windows 2008/2003 32-bit and 64-bit, Windows 2000/XP, VMware server
  • No need for the cost/complexity of the Microsoft clustering
  • Automatic or manual failover without requiring NAS or SAN


Specially designed for VMware, SQL, IIS with CDP backup technology

Using the latest Continuous Data Protection (CDP) technology, ClusterReplica replicates data in real-time while VMware guest OS, SQL or IIS server services are running.

ClusterReplica has good intelligence to determine the best replication points for each different application to guarantee the data integrity on Replicas.

Real-time or scheduled replication for entire VMware guest OS

When you are in a virtual environment, you have to look at the virtual machine and make sure that you back it up the same way you do for your physical system. It is always necessary to continuously replicate application data from multiple virtual production servers to another backup server either locally or over the WAN, for fully disaster recovery in the event of an outage.

ClusterReplica can be installed on the host OS or a guest OS of VMware server, replicating from the host OS offers not only the benefit of replicating all applications running on the virtual machine(e.g. Exchange server, SQL database server, IIS web server, or file server), but also replicating non-Windows guest OS (e.g. Linux or Solaris x86).

Automatic Server Failover/Failback

  • Failover to LAN and WAN seamlessly
  • Automatic failback with optional confirmed failback

Automatic fast compression over slow internet

ClusterReplica Enterprise measures the network speed and automatically applies the fast compression to data replication over slow LAN or WAN. Auto-compression guarantees the best performance for data replication no matter it is over high speed LAN or low speed WAN.


Multi-nodes clustering to allow one-to-many and Many-to-one data replication in real-time

  • Total flexibility on the number of systems bind in the clustering
  • Starting with few systems and add as needed with the growth of the business

With over 10 years of success in the PC-to-UNIX connectivity software market, XLink Technology has been in search of new directions for its engineer expertise. The newly evolved market of continuous data protection and disaster recovery has become the target of challenge for the company. During the past years, the company has built a strong client base consists of a wide array of large and small enterprises, including The Boeing Company, Lockheed Martin, Army Research Lab, National Institutes of Health, Stanford University and many others. With the newly developed products of up-to-date technology in hand, XLink’s marketing team is ready to tackle this still expanding market.
