VIRTUAL SERVER
NEC’s Four-Way High Availability Fault Tolerant server
provides a true server virtualization solution, with both
hardware and software—making this the ideal platform for
hosting Microsoft Virtual Server 2005. With the ability to
support Microsoft Virtual Server, and most Windows
®
applications. The high-performance configuration provides
the computing power to support multiple operating systems
and applications stacks in a fully fault tolerant environment—
without sacrificing performance.
A GREAT RETURN ON YOUR INVESTMENT
The Express5800/340Hb-R High Availability Fault Tolerant
server eliminates so many of the costs associated with running
enterprise class applications.
“The high-availability segment will grow at a 13%
compound annual growth rate, which is twice as fast as
the total server market. The Windows segment of the
high-availability market is growing at 39% from 9% of
the total to an expected 28% by 2006”— IDC*
Multiple servers are no longer required, substantially reducing
hardware costs. The multiple software licenses required in
clustering solutions are now reduced to just one. All this will
lead to a dramatic reduction in your administrative time and
cost. With NEC's Express5800/340Hb-R Four-Way Fault
Tolerant server you will a see dramatic decrease in your
costs for hardware, software and maintenance. And most
importantly, mission critical applications are not impacted.
Health Care.
The need for immediate and reliable access to
patient records, critical data, and institutional information
makes this solution a must for health care organizations.
Retail.
Downtime in the retail environment often results in lost
sales. With this full fault tolerant server, sales and inventory
information are always readily available.
Pharmaceutical.
Development laboratories must keep track of
new and existing tests that often span over weeks. Any
downtime in the process results in them having to throw away
millions of dollars worth of product and wasted time. Thus, a
full fault tolerant solution keeps entire batches of modeling
data from ever being lost.
Government.
Huge databases of criminal records, driving
records, disasters, and other types of information are instantly
available with the NEC Four-Way Fault Tolerant server.
Utilities.
A single server going down can cause a cascading
effect and create an energy disaster much like what caused
the largest blackout in the history of North America in August
2003. With this NEC solution, you have full fault tolerance and
complete hardware redundancy to prevent this from happening.
