Data Center Down! Behind the Scenes (High Availability & Disaster Recovery)

Watch this behind to scenes to see how Symantec put our high availability and disaster recovery technology to the ultimate test. We loaded a server rack with a multi-tier application stack including an Oracle database on Solaris and the application layer on Red Hat Enterprise Linux as primary data center. A disaster recovery site was set up on a second rack, our failover data center. The applications were clustered using Veritas Cluster Server. Veritas Replicator was set up to do data replication between the sites. And then the fun started, as we took our two “data centers” 18 stories up on a building in the heart of Silicon Valley and we dropped the primary rack off the roof. See how it seamlessly failed over to a recovery site.

RedHat: “The open source model can be applied in every industry”

Ruth Suehle is a senior editor at Red Hat, one of the biggest IT services company in the world, whose specificity is to mainly support the implementation and the maintenance of open source softwares and systems. According to Ruth, the open source model (no copyrights, free sharing of the knowledge and of the developped products, the importance of the community, etc.) is nowadays not limiter to the software industry. The automotive, chemical, transport or any other industry can apply the philosophy of open source in its own operations and in its own innovation processes. “This is a matter of sharing”, emphasizes Ruth Suehle. “Look at the open data wave which has hit the US, today. Sharing makes things faster and more efficient”. Although, it is true that companies which are not used to an open culture will have a hard time before really embracing the open source philosophy.
