Failover and resilience

With mobile working playing an increasingly critical part in business today, it is vital to ensure that your people on the move have access to their work and email at all times. But it can be difficult to maintain the availability of mobile working. Problems can arise from either a failure in the operating system, hardware component, application or the network itself

Always available

With a failover solution you can protect and actively monitor your mobile environment to provide the highest availability for your people on the move. It can protect your business from application downtime, by taking a variety of pre–emptive, corrective actions if failures occur. Should systems fail completely, these solutions can automatically provide a seamless failover to your secondary server that is transparent to your users.

Unique switchback

To deliver the highest availability on the BlackBerry® platform we recommend Neverfail™ for BES (BlackBerry Enterprise Server®). It provides the maximum flexibility with protection across your LAN or WAN and with a low bandwidth option where network capacity is an issue.

Uniquely it also provides seamless switchback when the primary server comes back online, whether it’s after a few hours or days. In addition it will:

• Automatically monitor the availability of all key services associated with BES
• Intelligently discover all application files, registry settings, services and data associated with BES
• Monitor all key performance aspects of the operating system, hardware and BlackBerry application
• Take a variety of corrective failover actions to repair or resolve problems detected
• Ensure seamless availability of the entire BlackBerry environment, so users stay connected

While Neverfail works across multiple platforms and has a rich feature set, Blackberry Enterprise Server 5.0 can be a suitable alternative
