Staples Finds Easy Decision In Backup Solution For IBM System i (iSeries)

Staples uses MIMIX HA to help guarantee uptime for its critical business operations. MIMIX HA replicates the five partitions (split across two System i servers) that run North American operations to five partitions on a single System i server. This backup server is 20 miles from the production servers. The partition supporting International operations, which is run on a System i server in the same location as the North American backup server, is replicated to a partition on another System i server in the North American Production location. This scenario provides Staples with additional overall data center redundancy. Submitted by Vision Solutions
