SNAP HA High Availability to deliver 5-9’s availability of cloud storage.

SoftNAS SNAP HA High availability allows failover across availability zones in case a zone has an outage.

HighRadius uses SoftNAS to make cloud storage highly available

SoftNAS Cloud NAS delivers 99.999% availability backed by an SLA uptime guarantee

HighRadius tried many cloud storage solutions but they could not meet the demanding 5-9’s of uptime. Cloud storage services has great storage durability and replication of storage to other availability zones however in the event of a failure, they had to manually redirect their solution. HighRadius also tried an opensource NAS and ran into multiple support issues with failover and zone replication, which did not meet their availability requirements.

Why HighRadius chose SoftNAS SNAP HA High Availability

After trying other solutions, the team tested the replication of data between availability zones and the failover and failback capabilities of SoftNAS. After an extensive evaluation, HighRadius felt comfortable with the technology and the support staff at SoftNAS to roll into production. Currently High Radius uses SoftNAS on to deliver HA cloud storage for their Fintech enterprise SaaS application.

Results

HighRadius knows how to move customers’ financial data to the cloud and run advanced analytics with AI cloud services. They also know that customers’ data is the DNA of the business and they must protect the data at all costs. High Radius needed a partner to provide to ensure the customer’s data will be highly available.

HighRadius chose Buurst SoftNAS as the strategic partner that can ensure the data is highly available across availability zones and provide failover and auto failback features to ensure the data has availability and the lowest latency to the customer’s location.

With the SoftNAS SNAP HA High Availability solution, HighRadius customers have confidence in the availability of the Highraduis solution and the SLA contracts they have defined.

“We have extensively tested replication across availability zones, failover and failback features of SoftNAS Snap HA and found all features worked with no problems. Fortunately, the SoftNAS NAS has ran so well that we have never seen a failover while in production, but we are glad we have the peace of mind that HA is there in case we need it.”

About SoftNAS SNAP HA High Availability

SNAP HA is for customers who need 5-9’s availability. SNAP HA uses SnapReplicate™ to replicate data from a primary node to the secondary node in an HA pair. Snap HA uses a virtual IP (VIP) address to ensure clients maintain connectivity to the NAS data after failover.

 

SNAP HA High Availability

SoftNAS nodes are in different availability zones in the public cloud or a VMware fault-tolerant configuration. Automatic failover monitors the health of underlying storage, the ZFS filesystem, and network conditions, carefully managing the cluster to ensure applications and workloads remain highly available, even in the face of underlying cloud platform host, storage, or network failures. SoftNAS’s unique patented high-availability technology enables only SoftNAS to provide a No Downtime Guarantee SLA for its customer’s peace of mind in the cloud.
