Data replication solutions may be best known as a failsafe in the event of critical system failure, but data replication can do more than save a company from potentially debilitating information loss; it can also eliminate bandwidth bottlenecking and decrease service latency for global businesses on a daily basis. Asynchronous replication services such as those provided by Rapidi are <\/a>bandwidth efficient, cost-effective solutions to information access and security problems facing many growing businesses today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n So what is asynchronous data replication? Asynchronous replication refers to any replication process that writes data to the primary storage location first, and to the replica second. Its counterpart is synchronous replication, a process which writes to the primary storage and any secondary locations simultaneously, in near-real time. Each process has its pros and cons, and the viability and applicability of each will vary, business<\/a> to business. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s never pleasant to consider, but understanding your organization\u2019s failsafe procedures in the event of catastrophic system failure is pivotal to your business\u2019s success. Solid data recovery plans are crucial, especially in a constantly shifting, increasingly competitive business landscape.Replication technology is one of the most effective tools that can be used to keep your data safe and secure, and your business operating at maximum efficiency. So what exactly makes data replication so important in the wake of data loss? Well, data that is consistently replicated to secondary locations can be accessed and used to restore information and functionality to primary systems that were waylaid by an attack, or other issue that resulted in data loss, disruption, or failure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Asynchronous and synchronous replication are two common methods of data replication. The differences mostly have to do with timing; synchronous replication involves writing data to the primary and secondary storage sites near-simultaneously, whereas asynchronous replication writes to the primary first before any alternate locations. There are benefits and drawbacks to each. Synchronous replication ensures that any backups are more likely to be identical (or nearly so) to the information immediately preceding a system failure. For some companies, this is a highly relevant component, which justifies the significant cost and greater bandwidth consumption that goes hand-in-hand with synchronous replication solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Meanwhile, asynchronous replication can happen in near-real time, or in scheduled increments. The Rapidi Replicator, like most asynchronous replication technology, is both budget-friendly and bandwidth efficient. Asynchronous data replication technology also tends to be better for long-distance information relay, since the minor lag inherent to the process is rendered irrelevant, since the data transmission is staggered anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Rapidi Replicator is an asynchronous replication product which equips your organization with a streamlined, software-as-a-service solution. Cloud-hosted, it is able to work with most popular ERPs, and every single Microsoft ERP available<\/a> (yes, even legacy editions!). Like all of Rapidi\u2019s services, the Replicator is designed to put functionality at your team\u2019s fingertips. Rapidi\u2019s asynchronous replication solution is scalable, able to work flawlessly between three or three hundred databases; as your business grows, the Replicator can grow alongside it with minimal maintenance required. Rapidi\u2019s cutting edge technology gives your company all the perks of centralized data exchange with none of the hassle. <\/p>\n\n\n\nSynchronous or Asynchronous?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
