High Availability (HA) Management

Abacus High Availability Management offers the same top level of protection as our cloud-based solution but in a software-based, “hot” turnkey customer solution. You can maintain your data on-site and still benefit from the lowest possible downtime for your AS/400 infrastructure.

AS/400 premise high availability management

What is Abacus AS/400 HA Management?

Abacus will start by installing best-of-purpose IBM i High Availability software onto your on-premise Production and on-premise Target environment hardware. The HA software creates a Recovery Point of Last Replicated Transaction on your secondary on-premise Target environment that can be used to run your business in case of a disaster. We then monitor and manage the replication to make sure everything is in sync. In the event of a planned or unplanned declaration, Abacus will role swap you to the Target environment with a recovery time of less than an hour. When the Production environment is back in working order, we'll schedule an outage window to roll swap you back from Target to Production, so everything returns to business as usual.

Who is Abacus HA Management for?

When coupled with our Backup Management services, you can enable 24/7/365 operations on your Production environment by transferring to a best-practices backup from your Target environment.
