NEC has launched 'CLUSTERPRO X 6.0', a new version of its HA clustering software series, which holds the No. 1 market share in Japan. This version introduces the 'System HA' concept, which visualizes availability not only at the server level but across the entire system.
This new product provides an operational management environment based on 'System HA', which visualizes availability for the entire business system, including the presentation and application layers, in addition to the data layer in three-tier architecture systems. 'System HA' is a new operational management method proposed by NEC that extends HA clustering, allowing for centralized monitoring of both individual server health and the overall operational status of business systems, thereby strengthening system stability and supporting business continuity.
Furthermore, 'Cluster WebUI', a web application for centralized management of multiple cluster systems, has been updated to display alert logs by server. This enhances usability, allowing operators to intuitively identify where and what issues have occurred, thereby improving convenience during incident response.
Additionally, it is possible to visualize the availability of the entire system in diverse environments—including public clouds, on-premises, virtualized, and physical environments—without significant design changes or additional license fees. This enables cost-effective operational management while leveraging existing IT assets.
NEC also plans to offer a 'Proactive Log Analysis Service' around August 2026, which will report initial countermeasures immediately after a failure occurs. Previously, it took an average of about 10 hours from the occurrence of a failure to the identification of the faulty node and the submission of logs. This service automates the process from failure occurrence to log submission and utilizes NEC's AI for log analysis, enabling the immediate delivery of initial countermeasure reports. This allows for operations without human intervention during failures, minimizing the time to start initial response. NEC is currently recruiting pilot users for this service.
In recent years, the resiliency of IT services has become increasingly important. In the DX era, IT systems are more tightly integrated, necessitating higher service continuity and stable operations. NEC aims to support the improvement and visualization of availability for entire business systems with this new product. By providing 'Proactive Log Analysis', NEC will offer IT service resiliency that delves into operations, contributing to the stable operation of customer IT systems.
NEC provides end-to-end services for DX, from strategic consulting to implementation, across business models, technology, and organization/talent. Furthermore, aiming to evolve from a traditional SIer to a 'Value Driver', NEC has organized its value creation model as 'BluStellar'. By leveraging cross-industry advanced knowledge and cutting-edge technology, NEC transforms business models and solves social and management challenges.
