I Clustering is a way how to connect two or more computers into one logical unit, when in case of malfunction of the main computer these two computers take over the function of the main one without any delay or data loss. This however means to have physically two and more computers, to have the same system configured in them and to maintain this all always mutually identical. The purchase and above all the maintenance costs are not low.

I Fault-tolerant technology has been known for a long time; however, it has belonged to the so called "high computing". This technology is based on the idea, that you have only one device, comprising from 2 to 4 processors performing the absolutely identical operations at the same time. This requires indispensably the cooperation of the producer of processor units as for example INTEL, so that the supplied CPU could have the required characteristics. Then, a very fast interface must be created for the connection of these "computer units" into a compact device that seems to its environment, i.e. to its users, to be only one “usual” server.

I Installation and maintenance of this server is easy, as it can be configured in a standard way and there’s no need to modify all applications running on the respective platform.

I In case of malfunction in a given unit, this unit is put out of operation and the notification utilities alert the administrator or a remote supervisor to a system irregularity. The users, however, do not notice any change or slowdown in operations performed on this server.

I Most of components and units (incl. CPU) can be changed in running, i.e. without any delay or downtime of the server.

I ftServer with WINDOWS 2000 is offered currently in cooperation with MICROSOFT Company. Its availability achieves fantastic values, i.e. in course of one year, the downtime of Stratus ftServers is only about 158 minutes in all installations in the world! Do the servers that you use have such reliability today or does the time, for which your employees, partners and clients cannot approach your information server, make any difference for you?
