Case Study: Orstead, Australia achieves continuous real-time data protection and seamless Hyper-V failover with Vision Solutions' Double-Take Availability

Orstead, Australia - Customer Case Study

Orstead Australia is a Sydney-based IT services provider (founded 2001) offering hosting, outsourcing, consulting and IP telephony across major cities and regional centres. Targeting the 20–400 user financial services market, Orstead needed a WAN-friendly, real-time replication and failover solution for highly transactional environments (MS SQL, Exchange, file servers) because traditional point-in-time snapshot tools could not keep up with constant data changes on Hyper-V hosts.

Orstead implemented Vision Solutions’ Double-Take Availability with Microsoft Hyper-V to deliver continuous, real-time replication to its disaster recovery site. The solution proved easy to install, test and monitor, supports multiple guest OSes and WAN-based applications, minimized potential data loss, enabled business continuity suites for clients, and passed full failover tests that met expected RPO and RTO objectives.
