Openminds and LifeKeeper have been Invaluable

It is difficult to say exactly how much downtime has been saved by the LifeKeeper clustering solution but we have maintained uninterrupted service during events that would otherwise could have caused hours of downtime. With the reassurance and failover that LifeKeeper provides we have also been able to perform system maintenance and upgrades without affecting end users.
