The Avago Syncro™ technology is a solution for businesses of all sizes that require high available storage for high performance, high capacity or hybrid system. The Syncro™ CS solution is a hardware based, high-available DAS which is shared between two head-nodes. In combination with Open-E DSS V7 software, it is possible to create a customized solution for any need, from a high performance SSD storage to high capacity 3,5” HDD server with SDD caching.

Failover is an excellent way to implement High Availability. It is a work mode that uses two Open-E Data Storage Software V6 servers (primary and secondary). The secondary server, which has a full up-to-date copy of the data, takes over as the file server in the event of a primary server failure.

Failover Cluster allows multiple computers work together in order to provide high availability of some services. In case of a situation when a node responsible for a service fails, the second one is able to take over this service and prevents from an unexpected downtime.
