OpenText Availability
Keep systems online, always
Ensure business continuity with real-time replication and near-zero downtime.
Why availability matters
In cybersecurity, availability means ensuring data and systems are accessible when needed. But system downtime, whether caused by ransomware, user error, failed upgrades, or natural disasters, is inevitable. And when it strikes critical infrastructure, the impact can be severe: lost revenue, SLA violations, customer churn, and brand damage.
Benefits of OpenText Availability
OpenText Availability is a real-time, asynchronous replication solution that ensures high availability for Windows and Linux systems. It offers automated failover and failback, intelligent monitoring, and push-button recovery for physical, virtual, and cloud-based infrastructure. Whether you’re protecting high-traffic websites, transactional systems, or legacy applications, the solution helps you eliminate downtime, avoid data loss, and meet SLAs, all while simplifying IT administration.
Prevent downtime with real-time data replication and instant failover.
Keep legacy and modern apps running without costly upgrades.
Maintain availability to meet business and regulatory expectations.
Automate availability operations across mixed environments.
Enable safe migrations and business process improvements with no impact to operations.

How it works
Continuous replication
OpenText Availability replicates data continuously from a primary server to a secondary target, using patented asynchronous byte-level technology. In the event of an outage, the system automatically triggers a failover, keeping services running with minimal delay.
Automated failback
Once the issue is resolved, the system can perform an automated failback to the original or replacement server. The software supports mixed environments across any hypervisor or cloud platform, including AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and VMware.
Easy setup
Setup is fast, testing is non-disruptive, and management is streamlined, even for legacy systems. That’s what makes it a key component of any cyber resilience strategy.
What our customers say
The difference between having OpenText and not having it is at least 50 percent of our time is saved with zero customer impact. I recommend OpenText for any business continuity plan or disaster recovery need.

Frequently Asked Questions
Cybersecurity is complex, and you might still have questions. We've answered some common ones below, but if you're still curious about something, contact our team to discuss your specific situation.
It means ensuring that systems, applications, and data are accessible when needed. OpenText Availability helps maintain that standard through continuous replication and failover support.
It works with Windows Server and nearly all major Linux distributions, and supports any hypervisor and leading cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, etc.).
Yes. It offers a more comprehensive, automated solution—especially in hybrid or mixed environments.
Failover to the secondary server can occur in seconds to minutes, depending on system size and configuration.
Yes. All data is encrypted in transit between source and target.
Absolutely. Non-disruptive testing is built into the platform so you can validate recovery without taking systems offline.
Yes. OpenText Availability helps future-proof older systems by keeping them online without requiring risky upgrades.
Yes. Availability, alongside confidentiality and integrity, is one of the three pillars of cybersecurity. This solution helps you achieve it without complexity.
