Fault tolerance: geographic distribution

It is strongly recommended that at least two application nodes be installed and – if possible – that they be located in different data centers. This is especially true of Bravura Privilege , where the geographical distance between application nodes should be maximized, so as to minimize the probability that a regional disaster (hurricane, earthquake, tsunami, etc.) causes privileged passwords for systems in other regions to be lost.

The built-in replication, both of file/registry contents (during psupdate) and of database contents (near real time and nightly) supports multiple servers, distributed over a wide area network. It is reasonably tolerant of low bandwidth (under 10Mbps), high latency (up to 150ms) and is encrypted to protect against man-in-the-middle attacks.
