Global data access can greatly expand the reach of your business. Continuent's multi-site multi-master (MSMM) solutions enable applications to accept write traffic in multiple locations across on-premises and vCloud Air. As an example, this includes the following real-world, business-critical use cases: - Improve performance for globally distributed users registering hardware devices by permitting updates on the geographically closest site - Ensure availability of credit card processing by spreading transaction processing across two or more sites. Users can still process credit card transactions if a single site is unavailable to them for any reason, including end-user Internet routing problems - Enable business continuity by using multi-master updates on different hosting providers for service scalability, personalization and software upgrades of GPS devices. Individual Continuent clusters already provide excellent single-site database availability and performance. In this webinar we review the benefits of combining multiple Continuent clusters into a global multi-site multi-master (MSMM) topology for: - Optimizing your installation for MSMM - Optimizing your application for MSMM - Monitoring and administration - Failover and recovery of individual servers or entire locations.
