Doyenz has started calling its patent-pending managed service
platform, now on rev 3, ShadowCloud, a name that makes a lot of sense
when you think about it since its first mover skills are active
disaster recovery, failover and migrations in the cloud.
It replicates a virtual copy of the user’s production infrastructure
in the cloud and is supposed to let service providers leverage
virtualization and automation to deliver enterprise-grade IT
capabilities to their SMB clients at predictable SaaS prices they can
afford since redundant data centers are out of the question and
traditional DR takes days to restore.
Doyenz provides an agent-based production-ready image that can be run on-demand in the cloud in case of – eek! – a failure.
Service providers can also use the latest copy of the production
image at any time to test, patch and upgrade servers in the Doyenz
Production-Ready Virtual Lab and then provision, deploy or just plain
run them in the cloud.
With its 3.0 version, the Doyenz platform now supports both physical
and virtual IT environments, including VMWare vSphere. Hyper-V is on
the way. The company claims ROI can be measured in hours or days
instead of weeks or months and complexity is low to non-existent.
