Case Study: Dunbia achieves 99.999% uptime with Stratus Technologies' everRun software

Stratus And 24/7/365 Uptime Ensure Always-On Availability For Production Supply Chain Systems

Dunbia, a leading supplier of fresh beef and lamb to major UK supermarket chains, runs a fast-moving, same-day production and distribution operation where electronic orders arrive each morning and must be fulfilled the same day. Any IT outage—even minutes—could jeopardize an entire day’s orders, so continuous availability for production, stock and order-processing systems is essential.

Working with 24/7/365 Uptime, Dunbia deployed Stratus everRun software to pool standard Windows servers into a single virtualized environment that keeps applications running despite hardware failures and with low administrative overhead. The result is near-elimination of downtime, delivered 99.999% reliability for key production systems, and seamless operation across Dunbia’s factory floor, stock and order-processing applications.
