New Concept in File Saving

Bound by the old fasioned single-system model, conventional file system can not save files to both local and remote sytstem at the same time. The Mirror File System from Twin Peaks is the only viable transition from the single-system file model to the mutiple-system file model developed to date.

Real Time Online File Backup/Replication Systems

Our real time file system-based backup technology uses the industrial-standard NFS and CIFS as the transport layer to replicate the live file in real time. Replication at the file system level offers many advantages over the conventional storage or disk block level replication

Advantages

• With the NFS and CIFS protocol as the transport layer, there is no need to re-invent a wheel with proprietory protocol
• Only one copy of software is needed,  on the active system. The NFS infra-structure on the remote system takes care of all replication operations from the active system
• The two systems can be on geographically-dispersed location, separated by hundreds of miles
• The MFS works with any remote system and NAS that support NFS and CIFS
• The MFS works with any type local and remote storage device
• NFS and CIFS check the syntax and semantics of every replication operation(create, write, delete) to maintain the integrity of  file system
• Files on the remote system are ready to be used immediately
• The file systems on both systems are active. When the failover occurs, no need for file system check and mount operations
