Proactively Preventing Downtime
Airport security systems, hospital climate control, emergency call centers - some applications can never be down. And many of them rely on everRun® software to proactively prevent downtime and data loss.
Using everRun doesn't require a team of IT experts on hand at the airport or in the call center. With real-time monitoring and validation, and automated synchronization and fault correction, everRun recovery software keeps vital applications running around the clock.
Keeping Products On Track for Distribution
Abercrombie & Fitch, a leading apparel retailer for men’s, women’s and children’s casual clothes and accessories, uses everRun software in their distribution centers to protect their critical monitoring and alarming applications, as well as data protection and to ensure non-stop operation of their sortation system. Since implementing everRun they haven't had any downtime for the applications that everRun protects.
“Every minute counts when you are managing a large number of buildings and pieces of equipment,” said Craig Moore, Senior Manager of Facilities, Abercrombie & Fitch. “We rely on our graphic system monitor on a daily basis for automatic alarm notification to manage campus buildings and run the distribution centers efficiently. We cannot afford for our graphic system monitor to go down. It is our eyes and ears for the operation 24/7.”
After a detailed evaluation process, Abercrombie & Fitch selected everRun, Marathon’s automated high availability and recovery software, to protect the graphic system monitor and to meet the campus’ high availability requirements.
“Marathon’s everRun software met our needs better than anything else we evaluated. Its real-time synchronization ensures that even in the event of a hardware failure, our conveyer and sorting systems would operate uninterrupted—without any loss of critical trend data,” said Moore.
Today, Abercrombie & Fitch uses Marathon’s everRun software to support approximately 60,000 data points critical to the retailer’s manufacturing facilities, including 14 office buildings, two mechanical buildings and the two central distribution centers. Since implementing Marathon’s everRun solution, Abercrombie & Fitch has experienced zero server downtime throughout its campus.
