How ServerLink Works
FileCloud ServerLink replicates a FileCloud site to another location. Changes on one FileCloud server are seamlessly synchronized to other ServerLink sites. FileCloud replication has the concept of a primary site and a secondary site. There can be many secondary sites connected to a primary site, depending on organizational requirements. Changes that happen in the primary site replicate to the secondary site. Similarly, changes that happen in the secondary site replicate to the primary site.
When there are multiple secondary sites, if a change occurs in one secondary site, that change is propagated to all secondary sites, as well as the primary site. Replication is achieved by running the replication client on the secondary sites. Replication clients are not required on the primary sites.
FileCloud ServerLink Deployment
Data replicated between sites includes the following:
- Files and folders (managed storage only)
- User accounts
- User groups
- Comments
- Favorites and favorite lists
- File and folder shares
- Folder-level permissions
- Metadata
If you are using s service hosted on the cloud and it goes down, even a few hours of downtime can cause irreversible damage. FileCloud ServerLink is ideal for large government and private sector organizations. With ServerLink, users can access to their data even during unforeseen emergency events like natural disasters (such as earthquakes, hurricanes, and floods), large scale cyber-attacks (such as ransomware, malware, and DOS attacks) and geopolitical events (such as trade wars and embargos).
