Groundbreaking technology, which claims to make available support for end-to-end high accessibility clustering, data reproduction and devastation recovery solution for varied physical and VMware virtual server environments is new from SteelEye. For makers utilizing VMware Infrastructure 3 to profit from the price and management advantages of server consolidation, it seems to be a robust solution for guaranteeing ease of use of the whole virtualized environment. With a comprehensive solution to defend all components of VMware Infrastructure 3, SteelEye Technology’s Protection Suite boasts of complementing the high availability technologies previously integrated into VMware Infrastructure 3 in the form of VMware HA and VMware Consolidated Backup – by providing best-of-the-breed data duplication and high availability clustering technologies to watch and automatically get back the whole environment. Jean Bozman, vice president of analyst IDC’s Enterprise Computing group, was quoted as saying, As companies migrate business-critical apps from physical environments into virtual environments, ensuring the availability of apps residing within those virtual servers is critical. With its support for VMware Virtual Infrastructure virtualized environments, SteelEye’s extension of these clustering capabilities into virtual environment protection is a logical next step that preserves a common model for protecting applications in both the P and V environments.
