Dell EMS Continuity:

Effectively Eliminate Email Downtime and Data Loss

Today, email is the most important business application, but one that remains difficult to protect. The problem is that competitive approaches to high availability and disaster recovery provide incomplete protection at a staggeringly high price. When database corruption, directory problems, viruses or configuration errors occur, expensive replication, clustering and log-shipping solutions can fail, and email will go down.

Protect Against Downtime Threats

Dell EMS Email Continuity provides an on-demand Linux^®-based standby email system that is fully integrated with Microsoft Exchange, Outlook and Active Directory^® or Lotus Notes^®. Since EMS has no dependencies on your environment, it helps ensure your organization has access to email without downtime or data loss — no matter what happens to your local systems, staff or infrastructure. EMS helps ensure that your email never bounces and that primary email system outages are not evident to the outside world.

Make Outages Virtually Invisible to End-Users

Upon activation, Dell EMS Email Continuity seamlessly redirects Microsoft Outlook users to the backup email service, making email server and infrastructure outages virtually invisible. BlackBerry wireless devices continue to send and receive messages, and all users have full access to email, contacts and calendar entries.

Achieve a Low TCO for Enterprises of Any Size

Since EMS Email Continuity is an on-demand service, the costs for deploying and operating it are known upfront, and little or no initial investment is required. As your business needs grow, EMS can easily protect any number of additional user mailboxes, providing virtually unlimited mailbox size for end users without adding additional maintenance work for your IT staff. EMS has predictable monthly costs to provide a high level of continuity at a low cost.
