Disaster Recovery: the process of returning to a normalized state after an unforeseen disruption, operating typically in a nonfunctional or minimal survial status.

Millions of dollars are spent annually when unplanned outages hit companies that do not have a business continuity or disaster recovery plan in place. Studies show that many actually close their doors due to an unplanned outage and that the survival rate for businesses without a disastery recovery plan is less than 10%.

Such statistics may seem extreme, but in reality most businesses cannot afford prolonged downtime that would effect their production environment and/or customer relations. And in a day when server consolidation is a popular IT buzzword, preparing for disasters has now become a requirement.




CBSI is proud to offer the Simple Object Replicator (SOR®) product suite to our customers as a first step in protecting their business systems. SOR® for IBM's i5/OS & OS/400 is a disaster recovery software package that offers object and data replication from one server to another, thus helping protect against possible system or site outages.

SDR® - Simple Data Replicator for OS/400 & i5/OS allows the replication of data from one IBM iSeries® server to another, or from one library to another on the same system. Database files, data areas, data queues, and IFS objects* can be selected to be replicated to another location anytime there is a change made to the object.

Implement SDR® as the cornerstone of your high-availability / continuous-availability / disaster-recovery plan. SDR® is very useful for implementing a continous-availability solution for businesses by allowing replicated data to be backed up while allowing continued operation against production database files, thus eliminating down-time for backups. By itself, SDR® offers a cost-effective high-availability/disaster-recovery solution for those businesses whose software applications and system seldom change.

*IFS Support scheduled for 4th quarter 2004.

SOR® - Simple Object Replicator for OS/400 and i5/OS is built on SDR®, plus adds the ability to replicate objects such as programs, display files, menus, user profiles, etc. SOR® meets the requirements of a high-availability / continous-availability / disaster-recovery solution for most companies.

SDR® "Lite" - Simple Data Replicator "Lite" for IBM OS/400 and i5/OS is SDR® limited to operating both source and target on the same system. This product is focused on the customer who merely desires to eliminate downtime for daily backups.
