"I recently enabled mirroring on one of our larger customers who is using two Dell 2300 Dual Processor 600MHZ servers with 36G of disk space running RedHat Linux 6.2. I am amazed at how simple the implementation was. I am very impressed with the c-tree Server and the capabilities it allows us to offer our customers. We can provide high-end functionality for a fraction of the cost of the alternatives with little or no downside. Our products now provide much more performance and capabilities per dollar invested, in a large part due to the efficiencies gained with the c-tree Server."
