Self-Healing Cloud Servers
Self-Healing
-
VMware vSphere operates on our Cloud of Core i7 Nehalem Cloud Machines, operating on different power grids / feeds in the data center.
-
All client data is stored on four, Fault-Tolerant, Clustered 15K iSCSI SANs. Our current utilization is approximately 20% of our 40+TB Enterprise SAN.
-
Network route optimization is achieved through a BGP-4 Fully Redundant Gigabit Network with six Tier-1 Bandwidth Providers; providing an excellent geographically dispersed data carrier route to and from the data center.
How Do Self-Healing Servers Work?
Cloud Host Failure:
-
Cloud Host "A" fails, thus affecting your server - Cloud Server 1 running on it.
-
Your Cloud Server is re-provisioned almost instantaneously to Cloud Hosts B, C, D or ..... Z (as appropriate).
-
Your Cloud Server 1 comes back online with a very short interruption (2 minute interruption on switch-over).
-
Once the original cloud host "A" s back online, your Cloud Server 1 is re-provisioned in real-time back to Cloud Host "A"(2 minute interruption on switch-back).
What if there is a power failure?
-
Power Grid "A" - coming from the south of the facility from one utility provider, fails, and affects Cloud Host "A" which was being fed power from this supply grid.
-
Your cloud server is re-provisioned in real-time to Cloud Host "D" which is being supplied power from a utility company from the north of the facility, Power Grid "B".
-
Eventually, the power supply is restored from the utility company from the south of the facility, and Power Grid "A" comes back online.
-
Your Cloud Server 1 is then re-provisioned in real-time back to Cloud Host "A" supplied by Power Grid "A" (2 minute interruption on switch-back).
Self-Healing Cloud Servers offer "High Availability"
-
Up to 36GHz of available processing power per Cloud Server.
-
Guaranteed CPU Resources.
-
Fully Dedicated RAM.
When High Availability would be necessary -
-
Cloud Host "A" is nearing CPU capacity due to a heavy customer server loads.
-
Your Cloud Server 1 is automatically migrated in real-time to the least utilized Cloud Host in the cluster, seamlessly.
Archives & Data Backups
-
FREE matching backup space on a RAID-6 platform separate from the iSCSI SAN to your SAN disk space.
-
RSync-able backup space can be used as an NAS mount and act as a second hard disk (if you require).
