Open-E, Inc., a global leader and developer of innovative storage management software, brings to market Automatic NAS (NFS) Failover functionality for its Data Storage Software (DSS) V6.

High availability is crucial to many applications. Despite using high-quality hardware and superior connections, any node (network, server, storage equipment, etc.) is still potentially subject to failures which can result in the loss of all active connections, data transactions or even service. In this case an automatic failover is essential for smooth operation within a data center. It works by sensing the failure of the primary node. Redundant nodes can continue serving clients, effectively replacing the missing node(s). A fully automatic Failover does not require tech team deployment or administrator approval to ensure continued operation.
