Power of N: Redundancy in the World of IP Recording

Discover the criteria one of the largest financial institutes considered when assessing their

redundancy options for IP recording

Presented By:Scott Montgomery and Todd Folkes

Why is Redundancy Necessary?

• Customers are demanding higher availability

and uptime

• Business Requirements

• Service Level Agreements

• Regulatory

• Financial

Redundancy

• Physical

• Software

• Maintaining

Physical Redundancy

• Component Level

• Raid Arrays

• Raid 1, Raid 0 + 1, Raid 10, Raid 5, Raid 6

• Redundant Component

• Memory Modules

• Power Supplies

• Network Cards

• Server or Appliance Level

• Data Redundancy

Maintaining

• Don’t over complicate and/or over design

• System monitoring

• Failure Notification

• Monitor System Health

• Regular Scheduled Testing

What is the right amount?

• Recording Configuration

• Interception

• Service Observe

• Single Step Conferencing

• Duplicate Media Streaming

• Infrastructure and Environment

• Business Needs
