Double-Take® Software today announced that it is teaming up with Citrix to create an enhanced IT productivity and data protection solution to accelerate server applications. Double-Take Software is a Citrix Ready™ partner, whose solution has been validated with Citrix WANScaler™. The integrated solution allows new and existing customers to optimize and protect business applications remotely using Double-Take with Citrix WANScaler.

This integrated solution optimizes customers’ critical data and enhances high availability, a component especially critical during disaster recovery. Employees of customers taking advantage of this partnership will be able to remain connected remotely in the event of a disaster, eliminating downtime and lost productivity.

Double-Take provides patented replication and failover technology that continuously captures byte-level changes in real-time and replicates those changes to local or remote servers. Citrix WANScaler provides high-performance application delivery to branch offices, datacenters and mobile workers, by eliminating the inefficiencies often found in long-haul wide-area network links. Double-Take in conjunction with WANScaler accelerates replication speeds and protects critical data without reducing the bandwidth for other critical applications or adding new WAN lines.

“Double-Take Software’s participation in the Citrix Ready Program brings additional peace of mind to our joint customers who benefit from two world-class solutions that complement each other to protect their most valuable assets,” said David Jones, Corporate Vice President, Business Development at Citrix.
