What is Abacus HAaaS?
The Abacus High Availability as a Service is a software-based, “hot” turnkey solution providing the highest level of protection and lowest possible downtime with a recovery time objective (RTO) of less than one hour.
We start by installing and implementing IBM i High Availability software onto your on-premise (“Production”) AS/400 hardware. The high availability software creates a recovery point of every transaction, then replicates that transaction to an appropriately sized, Abacus provided cloud (“Target”) environment. Our technical staff monitors and manages the replication process to ensure all your data is properly synced across both systems.
In the event of a planned or unplanned outage, or unexpected disaster, Abacus will role-swap you to the Target environment with a recovery time of less than an hour. When the Production environment is restored and in working order, we then schedule an outage window to roll swap you back from Target to Production, so everything returns to business as usual.
Who is Abacus HAaaS for?
Companies that run their business on the IBM i platform are familiar with its reliability, however, reliability is not the same as availability and the cost of downtime can be severe. High Availability as a Service provided by Abacus allows you to better manage your business continuity and avoid downtime in your Production environment.
