Always-On Data Resilience

Keep mission-critical databases running through node, storage, and zone failures – without paying twice for duplicate infrastructure.

When the Database Stops, the Business Stops

Every order, payment, and application depends on the production database. In the cloud, instance failures, lost disks, and zone or region outages are a matter of when, not if. The traditional answer – duplicate everything – doubles storage costs and still leaves slow, manual failover. 

Resilience Built Into the Data Layer

  • Always-On Availability

    Active-active performance nodes remove any single point of failure. Lose a node and I/O keeps flowing – the database stays online.

  • No Data Loss

    Erasure coding spreads data with parity across capacity nodes, so a lost node loses nothing and protection rebuilds automatically.

  • Instant Recovery

    Zero-footprint snapshots capture known-good points in seconds and restore in moments – without consuming extra storage.

  • Region-Level Disaster Recovery

    Replicate to a second cloud region so the business keeps running through a regional outage, with no application changes.
