Case Study: China Water Conservancy and Hydropower Press achieves real-time, reliable backups and instant failover with Vision Solutions' Double-Take RecoverNow

China Water Conservancy and Hydropower Press - Customer Case Study

China Water Conservancy and Hydropower Press is a national science-and-technology publisher with more than 40 distribution centers and thousands of users nationwide. Faced with a project to digitize its publishing, distribution and e‑commerce operations, the Press needed a stable, flexible full‑system backup and disaster‑recovery solution that could protect complex applications and Oracle databases used concurrently by many users — all within tight budget constraints.

The Press deployed Double‑Take RecoverNow to provide byte‑level, continuous replication across physical and virtual servers, low‑bandwidth offsite replication, and point‑in‑time recovery down to the second, including bare‑metal or virtual server restores. The solution enabled real‑time OS replication for nontechnical sites, immediate failover to mirrored backups, dramatically reduced risk of data loss, support for multiple Windows application environments, and ensured safe, uninterrupted operation of the publishing system.
