Quorum® onQ™ Appliance
Some of the benefits include:
- Ultra-efficient Incremental Updates—RPO as low as 15 minutes
- Incremental Forever: after the initial full image is made at installation, Quorum only transfers one copy of any changes since the last interval.
- Just the Changes: we detect not only which files have changed, but which parts of the files have changed so when that multi-gigabyte database has one record change, we don't copy the entire file.
- Deduplication: we only send the parts of files that don't already exist on any other server we're protecting. That means that if the same "chunk" exists on any server protected by the appliance, it doesn't need to be sent.
- Windows Share Restore – allows browsing and retrieving files directly off of the Quorum appliance or Archive Vault repository by mapping a share on to a windows machine.
- One-Click Recovery™
- Current Forever: each ultra-efficient update is merged into the virtual machine recovery nodes, which are full current images.
- Ready-to-Run: we don't wait until you need them to build your virtual recovery nodes, allowing one-click recovery at any time.
- Point-in-Time Recovery: even though we merge the changes into the ready-to-run recovery node, you can restore files or an entire system to a prior state.
- Server Monitoring: we continuously check the health of your servers, sending an alert if any service interruption is detected.
- Site-to-Site Replication: we compress and encrypt changes and synchronize them with a remote appliance. You get instant remote recovery for complete disaster protection.
- Redundant storage: our appliances provide hot-swap protection from any single-disk failure, and with your remote onQ, you'll have additional protection

QuorumTM Specifications
QuorumTM appliances are sized based on how many Recovery Nodes you need and how much data you need to protect. Storage is always expandable, so you're not locked into a rigid platform. With our incremental-forever and deduplication technologies, the amount of new data that needs to be sent to the appliance per snapshot is usually quite small, minimizing not only storage requirements, but also reducing the load on your LAN and WAN.
- Select one appliance to be placed on your LAN for High Availability.
- Select a second appliance to be synchronized to your own remote site
Quorum® onQ™ Appliances Deployment Methods
onQ™'s flexible deployment options let you tailor a solution to your needs. Whether you have 2, 20 or 50 servers to protect, at one or multiple sites, onQ™ can be configured to meet your needs.
Disaster Recovery Solution means that you won't be down for more than a few minutes. Unlike conventional backup products which require recovery hardware and cumbersome, time-consuming processes, onQ™ gets you running again in minutes. With one click, you will be running up-to-date virtual copies of your protected servers right on the onQ™ appliance.
How It Works
onQ™ is typically deployed as a pair of plug-and-play appliances—one for your main office and one for your remote branch or co-location facility—your disaster recovery site. Simply plug the onQ™ local appliance into your production network, install our lightweight service on the servers you wish to protect and in minutes onQ™ will start protecting your critical business systems without even requiring a reboot.
onQ™ keeps up-to-date copies of all your operating system, application and data files on both the local and remote appliances - but, unlike conventional backup products, it also keeps ready-to-run "Recovery Nodes" standing by. If any (or all) of your protected servers fail, the Recovery Node can be started with a single click and have your business running again in minutes.
The entire process is totally automatic and doesn't require any additional hardware or software. onQ™'s incremental updates are extremely efficient, sending only the parts of any files that have changed, storing them in our repository for point-in-time file recovery and merging those changes into the Recovery Nodes. They are so efficient that you can keep months of snapshots that are as little as 15 minutes apart.
onQ™ appliances come packed with all the features you need for enterprise level Disaster Recovery Solution:
- Full & incremental backups to the onQ™ appliance
- Powerful de-duplication technology
- Ready-to-run virtual Recovery Nodes
- Data replication to remote site
- One click 5 minute recovery - even for terabyte systems
- Monitoring and alerts
- Recover files and messages in minutes
