While you need rock-solid technology to meet your company’s demands, technology alone is not enough. Excellence in processes and people – skills, roles, and responsibilities – is just as important for an optimized infrastructure.

High Availability

True high availability is about delivering the application to the end users. Our Microsoft Team understands the importance of designing an architecture that truly takes into account the delivery of the application to the end user – from back end storage, networking, all the way to making sure the application itself is highly available.

True high availability is dependent on monitoring and being able to predict when potential problems could arise. Since all equipment will fail, it is important to be able to predict and react to events prior to an outage.

Systems Center Operations Manager (SCOM) can help you ensure that you are deploying in a way that will provide high availability for everything from your Active Directory to your Exchange environment. SCOM has the ability to synthetically log on as a user to ensure the entire application is up and running as needed.
