The Promise and the Challenge of Cloud
Dynamic IT that supports and accelerates business innovation is no longer a wish, it’s a necessity. Enterprises need flexibility, scalability, and resilience to modernize applications or unlock AI or ML. While cloud adoption promises agility and cost savings by offloading infrastructure management, it introduces new challenges in security and resiliency.
Most notably, cloud providers do not guarantee any application availability or protection. Meaning enterprises are solely responsible for ensuring their critical workloads remain operational in the common event of outages, cyber threats, or system failures.
InfoScale: Full-Tier Application Protection
For IT leaders who can’t afford unexpected application downtime or data loss, InfoScale is the only full-tier solution designed to protect every supporting layer in-real time— including operating systems, storage, databases, networking, and dependencies, for an average 98% reduction in enterprise application downtime.
Unlike traditional infrastructure redundancy which lacks any application awareness, InfoScale goes beyond failover by actively detecting, healing, and maintaining application availability across cloud and on-premises environments. With InfoScale, enterprises can be confident that their mission-critical applications will remain resilient—no matter what.
Reducing Cloud Risk with Arctera Application Mobility Service (AMS)
Arctera Application Mobility Service enables organizations to quickly adopt InfoScale for cloud application resiliency, deploying it in just days. By securely automating the deployment and configuration of clusters, AMS eliminates the risk of misconfigurations that often lead to security breaches, downtime, compliance violations, and operational risks. Cloud environments are inherently dynamic and complex, making it easy for errors to go unnoticed until it’s too late. AMS simplifies this process, ensuring that applications are properly configured for optimal resiliency and security from the start.

The Benefits of InfoScale and Arctera AMS for Application Resiliency
- Full-Tier Real-Time Protection: InfoScale ensures your application remains protected, with full context —from operating systems to databases— for zero downtime and data loss, across cloud and on-premises environments.
- Automated Configuration & Reduced Risk: With Arctera AMS, the configuration of InfoScale is automated, reducing manual configuration errors and ensuring applications are up and running faster, with less risk and fewer mistakes.
- No Deep Cloud Expertise Required: AMS simplifies cloud infrastructure deployment and integrates with leading cloud platforms (AWS, Azure) so that no deep cloud knowledge is required to deploy resilient, secure applications.
- Custom Image Supported: if your organization requires the use of a custom “Golden Image” for security and management, AMS incorporates it into the deployment process.
Arctera Application Mobility Service is more than just a deployment or migration tool—it’s a strategic enabler for businesses navigating the complexities of modern IT environments. By simplifying cloud deployment, enhancing flexibility, and accelerating time to value, AMS ensures your organization is prepared for success in an ever-evolving digital landscape.
