Availability and resilience
- Guaranteed availability

- Approach to resilience
- One of the many advantages of Jive’s next-generation platform on AWS (Amazon Web Services) Cloud is its high availability infrastructure. AWS’s cloud infrastructure is designed to meet the highest standards of high availability and resiliency. Many of the world’s largest companies and institutions rely on AWS Cloud to power mission-critical applications. The AWS Cloud infrastructure is built around Regions and Availability Zones (AZ’s). AWS Regions provide multiple, physically separated and isolated Availability Zones which are connected with low latency, high throughput, and highly redundant networking. A disaster event (e.g., fire, flood, earthquake, tornado, hurricane) in one AZ will not impact any other AZ. Latency between AZ’s is generally less than 1-2ms, allowing for all AZ’s in an AWS region to be treated as one big data center. All Jive services are deployed to at least two (usually three) AZ’s within a region. All data is replicated between at least two AZ’s. Databases can be failed over in 1-3 minutes.
