OpenEdge Replication
Disaster Protection for Your Mission-Critical Systems
Many companies that experience a disaster do not recover from the financial impact; disaster recovery planning helps protect your business from catastrophes and disasters. Progress® OpenEdge® Replication prevents your business from losing significant revenue and damaging your business's reputation by ensuring that your mission-critical systems are available 24/7/365. Protect your OpenEdge investment and your business with OpenEdge Replication as the cornerstone of your disaster recovery solution.
As the number of data-intensive and externally accessed applications increases, so does the need for high availability and greater amounts of data. This requires IT organizations to understand and classify each application's availability and recovery requirements. Providing the appropriate level of data availability means satisfying application requirements within a set of cost and complexity constraints. Defining application requirements is an essential step in creating a successful business recovery strategy. Progress® OpenEdge® Replication plays a key role in the disaster recovery process, providing recovery of mission-critical data for applications at an alternate site.
