Cubrid, a South Korean open-source DBMS specialist, is strengthening an efficient disaster recovery (DR) strategy based on high availability (HA) in the public-sector DR market.
Cubrid has built HA (High Availability) functions into its engine to provide integrated support for database server availability and DR. HA focuses on securing service continuity by minimising system downtime, while DR aims for rapid data recovery and service resumption in the event of a disaster.
The company said Cubrid HA supports database redundancy within the same internet data centre (IDC) through various server configurations, and also supports lossless synchronous replication between remote DR centres. It also said this can minimise data loss in the event of a failure and restore services within seconds to minutes.
Cubrid Chief Executive Jeong Byeong-ju (정병주) said, "Public-sector disaster recovery systems are an area that must satisfy both cost and stability." He added, "Cubrid will provide a realistic and verifiable alternative through HA-based built-in DR functions."
