Database-System

With a Safety Net and Double Protection

ARCFLOW uses a professional database development system both as its application database and for document and index storage. It is designed for high performance and low maintenance so with ARCFLOW you can rest assured that you are using a database that not only performs well but needs little maintenance as a foundation for your own document management. All files stored to ARCFLOW are recorded in the database system. The databases are encrypted, completely free from manipulation and consist of only one physical file. Backing up your data is, therefore, very simple.

In addition, you also have the option to spread your data across several database files. If you wish you can also set regular diagnostic checks and backups of your data in the database system to run completely automatically. Thanks to modern diagnosis and backup processes this can even be done during ongoing operation. This includes keeping administrators automatically informed of any special database situations using e-mail and SMS messaging.

Around-the-Clock High Availability

The database system is a high availability solution for your document management. Using the hot standby function you can set up a secondary database server on a second, independent server system which will always carry the up-to-date status of the document database. Should the primary system fail then the backup system automatically kicks in assuming all the functionality of the database server – with absolutely no interruptions and without the users even noticing.
