Continuous Computing Corp. Announces Availability of upSuite -- TM -- on Carrier-Grade Linux.Business Editors & High-Tech Writers SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 24, 2002 Continuous Computing CCPU Cash Cost Per User (Sprint) CCPU China Criminal Police University CCPU Cryptographic Central Processing Unit ), a leading provider of high-availability network-ready computing platforms for telecom equipment manufacturers, today announced that its industry-leading upSuite(TM) HA middleware product will be available on Intel Architecture-based platforms running the Linux operating system operating system (OS) Software that controls the operation of a computer, directs the input and output of data, keeps track of files, and controls the processing of computer programs. in the first quarter of 2003. Various carrier-grade Linux distributions upSuite is an award-winning, high-availability middleware product that provides one of the highest levels of availability for any application in any telco or enterprise environment. upSuite features sub-second failure detection and failover initiation for problems caused by any software hardware, or network failure. The creation of a hot standby A hardware device that is connected to the computer or computer complex and remains powered on. It is ready to take over immediately if the primary unit fails. A hot standby may refer to a complete computer system; for example, a standby server, or a component in a computer such as a through both disk data replication and application state persistence enables such rapid failover. The architecture and implementation of upSuite allows heterogeneous networks to fail over and provide disaster recovery between platforms running different operating systems Operating systems can be categorized by technology, ownership, licensing, working state, usage, and by many other characteristics. In practice, many of these groupings may overlap. . upSuite's uniquely transparent implementation means that projects now under consideration or development need not be modified to run under upSuite. "upSuite provides application-transparent high availability with real-time file replication across any TCP/IP TCP/IP in full Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol Standard Internet communications protocols that allow digital computers to communicate over long distances. network. VoIP, optical and wireless applications can become instantly highly available," pointed out Ken Kalb, CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of CCPU. Importantly, upSuite allows heterogeneous failover and replication designs. "One platform can be running, for example, the Solaris OS and another can be running Linux. upSuite's revolutionary design allows failover of applications and replication of files between the platforms," said Simon Waters, VP of worldwide sales for CCPU. "Telecom customers are looking to drive down costs by transitioning to a standards-based Modular Communications Platform," said Ron Peck, Intel's communications software marketing director. "Intel continues to work with companies like Continuous Computing to enable highly reliable solutions based on Intel Architecture." About Continuous Computing Corp.
