Branch Office Synchronization
A single file server in your headquarters cannot provide same level of performance to branch offices that are located across continents. With a single server, users in remote branch offices will observe latency when accessing files remotely. To alleviate the problem, the branch offices can have their own FileCloud instance, with FileCloud ServerLink technology synchronizing files across multiple FileCloud instances.
Creating a global network of FileCloud servers with ServerLink enables users to access their files from the server closest to their location. This reduces latency and improves business operations for global enterprises. It also minimizes the risk of data loss resulting from localized events, such as natural disasters or data center outages.
ServerLink has automated failover and failback processes, ensuring that traffic is redirected to a backup server when a primary server becomes unavailable. Data is automatically synchronized back to the primary server once it is restored, minimizing your risk of losing critical business information.
ServerLink works by replicating data between multiple FileCloud server instances in data centers in different geographical locations. You can configure ServerLink to facilitate one-way or two-way replication. One-way involves primary to secondary server replication, while two-way replication is bidirectional. Encryption protocols protect data in transit during the replication process.
Multi-Office Synchronization
Each branch office instance mirrors the main FileCloud server at HQ. FileCloud replicates files and folders, but it also replicates all related data such as users, groups, comments, and access permissions across all servers.
Mix and Match Infrastructures
FileCloud provides organizations with the flexibility to run branch office FileCloud instances on a variety of infrastructures and operating systems. FileCloud’s ServerLink technology handles the complexity in the background and keeps these instances in sync.
Simple Pricing Model
With one simple pricing model, organizations get the full benefit of branch office file-sharing technology. Cross-office synchronization enables tighter integration across teams to deliver their products, services, and supporting functions. The benefits of ServerLink significantly outweigh the cost.
