Software and data are a company’s competitive advantage. That’s because every company is now a software company. As a result, organizations need software to work perfectly to create customer experiences, deliver innovation, and generate operational efficiency. That’s exactly what a software intelligence platform does.

To make data count and to ensure cloud computing is unabated, companies and organizations must have highly available databases. A basic high availability database system provides failover (preferably automatic) from a primary database node to redundant nodes within a cluster. HA is sometimes confused with “fault tolerance.”
