Stratus Continuous Processing technology offers you the most complete set of availability safeguards in the business.

Like other Stratus systems, V Series servers use Continuous Processing technology to safeguard uptime without the operational complexity and added costs inherent in high-availability alternatives. Built-in fault tolerance eliminates the failover scripting, repeated testing, and application changes required with server clusters.

Lockstep technology.

With Stratus' lockstep technology, replicated fault-tolerant hardware components process the same instructions at the same time. In the event of a component malfunction, the partner component acts as an active spare that continues normal operation. There is no system downtime and no data loss.

VOS operating system

V Series servers run the Stratus VOS operating system, which for decades has supported the computer industry's top levels of uptime. Release 15.0 of VOS is required.

Uptime-protecting service

Component replacement takes place while the system continues normal operations. Hot-swappable components allow users to accomplish the task themselves.

Stratus V Series servers are designed to continuously monitor their own operation. If a problem is detected, the server correctly isolates the condition, and automatically opens a call that tells the Stratus support center exactly what action to take. Remote support capabilities - made possible by the system's design and the worldwide RSN - enable our service engineers to troubleshoot and resolve problems online more than 95% of the time. The system also automatically orders its own hot-swappable replacement part when necessary.
