SPIAgent Add-on
Ensure high availability and improved replication performance with SureSync's product add-on, SPIAgent. SPIAgent provides the technology to perform real-time replication and more. Below is a list of features that are included when you license the SPIAgent Add-on.
- Real-Time Monitors
Real-time replication increases data availability by continuously monitoring data for updates. Copy files immediately after they change and avoid folder scans that are necessary for scheduled jobs.
- Adaptive Delta Technology
SureSync copies only the changes made to a file, reducing synchronization time and decreasing the consumption of network resources.
- Delta Processing to Non-Windows Machines
If you map a non-Windows drive to a drive letter on a Windows machine you can process delta copies to that non-Windows machine, giving you bandwidth savings between any machines, regardless of the OS.
- Quality of Service (QoS)
QoS allows you to manage the amount of bandwidth consumed by each SureSync job. QoS directly monitors and controls the communications links, providing a more advanced method to control bandwidth than the Network Loading features found in the standard SureSync Server License.
- File Compression
Transmit files in a smaller package across your network by compressing them. File compression is particularly useful on slow network connections. SureSync also allows you to specify the level of compression to control the impact on your system.
- TCP/IP Transmissions
Transmissions across the Internet give you more options on how you connect to remote machines. Now it is even easier to keep office branches connected to the information they need.
- Encryption
Ensure your files are being transmitted securely by utilizing the option to encryption each file transmission. This is an especially useful and necessary tool when transmitting data across the Internet.
SPIAgent File Locking Add-on
The SPIAgent with File Locking Add-on requires the SPIAgent to be licensed and in turn gives you an additional benefit in file sharing environments. The SPIAgent File Locking Option eliminates the possibility that a file could be changed on multiple sides of a synchronization resulting in a more efficient synchronization with zero risk of lost changes. The user that attempts to open a file that is already in use will receive a message that they can open a read-only copy.
ArchiveSync Add-on
SureSync’s ArchiveSync Add-on allows users to create versioned backup copies of files, providing an efficient disk-to-disk backup solution. Versioned file copies allow users to quickly restore files to a specified point-in-time, without sifting through tape backups. Additionally, when archiving or restoring, the ArchiveSync Add-on will allow you to backup and restore security privileges as well.
Archiving can be done in real-time to continuously protect data, effectively eliminating tight backup windows during the evening. ArchiveSync will also automatically thin out your archive tocleanup storage.
Advanced Open File Support (AOFS) Add-on
The AOFS Add-on allows you greater flexibility over the files you replicate and protect to backup servers or NAS devices. The AOFS add-on provides the ability to replicate files which are open exclusively or open locked to other machines on your network, making it a valuable disaster recovery option.
Note: Support in Windows 2003/2008 and Windows Vista is provided free of charge through the Volume Shadow Copy (VSS) service in Windows. Simply configure SureSync to use this option and you're done!
