Archiware P5 Synchronize lets you replicate data to ensure high availability. Servers, RAIDs or SANs are cloned and immediately accessible as failover. With P5’s browser interface, synchronization is set up within minutes. Its also includes (X)San and FSEvents support for optimized workflows.
Maximum data availability – no restore required
In a modern production environment, data availability is key. Serious enterprises need a serious data mover that connects a wide range of storage destinations in house or at remote locations — with ease, speed and reliability. Cloning data or a complete file system creates a failover solution for time critical setups.
Whether local disks, LAN storage, remote storage or even cloud services, P5 Synchronize is hardware and OS agnostic and offers a simple, flexible all-in-one approach. Simply think of P5 Synchronize as the Swiss army knife of data management.
Archiware P5 Synchronize is configured and monitored via the browser and offers straightforward functionality even for most advanced demands, making command line triggered sync procedures a thing of the past. P5 Synchronize automatically detects modified files and synchronizes them to a target destination.
Continuous Data Protection reduces the risk of data loss. For maximum availability, synchronized files are immediately available. No restore is required. In case of emergency, production can continue immediately using the cloned data.
Maximum efficiency
P5 Synchronize can keep file versions and multiple snapshots, with these previous versions available in addition to the most up to date data clone. Snapshots of the whole file system can keep even more data available. In update mode, copies of only new and modified files are made. Required disk space and network traffic is reduced. By using hard links, your storage space is used most efficiently. P5’s filters can easily be used to include or exclude files from synchronization; you can synchronize only selected file names, sizes, ages etc.
Simple Distribution of Data
P5 Synchronize allows internal as well as external data transfers, therefore providing new means of communication and workflow organization. P5 Synchronize distributes data automatically to different locations, easily setting a clone of your data for distribution to partners, branches or agencies.
Data migration
Moving files, even between heterogeneous systems, can be done within the shortest possible time frame. After synchronization, files can be deleted automatically from the source.
File System Snapshots
Since version 5.3, the Synchronize Module supports a powerful functionality of modern file systems such as ZFS or BtrFS, which is creating a snapshot of the status quo of data. These functionalities are special in that they use very little ressources. Snapshots can be created instantly and the required storage space matches the amount of data that has changed. This functionality enables the user to keep and provide multiple cycles of synchronized data.
Cloud Support
Data can be synced to, from and in between cloud services. Archiware’s own free tool WingFS provides the connection to the services. As desktop tool it allows drag & drop operations with cloud services.
