Unparalleled Expertise in Keeping Criticial Applications Running

Stratus 24/7 Customer Support Provides 99.999% Uptime for Critical Applications

Keeping your applications running is the heart of what Stratus does — which is why we built support right into the center of Stratus fault-tolerant servers and ftScalable storage. Layered over our unique system architecture is software that continuously monitors the status and health of your Stratus environment. Using a real-time connection to Stratus' 24/7 global support team, your system notifies us of the status of hundreds of critical conditions. In the event of a potential problem, your system self-heals, asks for remote analysis, or utilizes our architecture's fault-tolerant features to eliminate failing modules without skipping a beat.

Avance high-availability software leverages these same built-in serviceability principles, monitoring your x86 server pair, host software and network for more than 150 critical operating conditions. If a fault is detected, applications are automatically migrated to the other node — without any impact of performance or loss of data. Our Avance software support service backs this unique built-in serviceability with 24/7 coverage that ensures timely incident resolution, quality fixes and prompt attention to routine support requests and maintenance updates.
