everRun VM: Add Fault Tolerance to your Citrix XenServer Virtual Environments

Virtualization drives cost saving and efficiency, but it also consolidates risks to applications. A single physical component failure can affect many applications running in virtual servers.

Using everRun® VM for Citrix® XenServer™, you can extend server virtualization to a broad range of mission-critical applications without worrying about downtime.

everRun VM integrates Citirix XenServer's "bare-metal" performance with everRun's innovative ComputeThru™ technology. everRun for XenServer high availability proactively prevents downtime through redundant systems and monitoring while creating a single, always available application instance in virtual server environments.

Run Business Critical Applications Without Downtime

Using everRun VM, you can move mission-critical applications to virtual servers without worrying about consolidating your risk. everRun VM proactively prevents application downtime, with redundancy spanning physical and virtual servers, storage and networks. Real-time validation and automated I/O redirection keep your applications running even through component or system-wide failures.

everRun has been designed and tested to work with the latest versions of Citrix XenServer:

  • Enterprise-Class, Cloud-Proven, Free XenServer
  • Essentials for XenServer

Never Lose Essential Data

If you have applications that cannot lose a byte of data, then you need everRun for XenServer high availability. It automatically mirrors application data to create a consistent, identical version that can be separated physically from the original. Data remains available even if a disk device, network, virtual or physical server fails.

Simplify Your IT Environment

You don't need a team of virtualization and availability experts or a big budget to eliminate downtime in your virtualized environment. Simply point everRun VM to the VM you want to protect, and everRun's setup wizard does the rest. You can fully deploy XenServer and everRun from bare metal in 30 minutes or less.

everRun VM then automatically monitors and responds to failures for critical applications, helping you deliver superior service levels with less IT effort. It alerts you when it detects potential problems that could lead to future faults. Otherwise, it practically runs itself, which is why it is so successful in branch and remote offices, and in disaster recovery sites without IT personnel on hand.

Enjoy Peace of Mind

To get the full benefits of server virtualization, you want to be able to move most or all of your applications to virtual servers. And with everRun VM, you can provide each VM with the appropriate level of availability, automatically. everRun VM supports multiple availability levels, from basic disaster recovery to component-level fault tolerance and full system-level fault tolerance for applications with the most stringent needs. With everRun automatically enforcing the right availability levels across all of your Windows applications and virtual machines, you can relax and enjoy the benefits of server virtualization.

“everRun is a game changing availability offering that allows XenServer customers to tailor the level of availability per virtual machine."
