At a pivotal moment when AI and data are deeply converging and industrial intelligence is accelerating, data infrastructure is becoming the foundational capability that defines enterprise competitiveness. The 8th Golden Ape Big Data Industry Development Forum 2025, also known as the AI Infra & Data Agent Trend Forum, was recently held in Shanghai. Centered on the theme “Data with Intelligence · Insights for the Next Decade,” the forum brought together industry leaders, technology experts, and benchmark enterprises to explore the future direction of data intelligence over the next ten years.
During the forum, the highly anticipated “2025 Big Data Industry Annual Innovation List” was officially released. Leveraging its long-term technical expertise and large-scale practices in data replication and data resilience, Info2soft saw two core products successfully selected for the authoritative Golden Ape Award list—once again demonstrating the solid strength of China’s domestic foundational software.
i2Availability: Selected as “2025 Big Data Industry Annual Innovative Technology”
In today’s increasingly complex digital systems and extremely demanding business continuity requirements, high availability is no longer a “nice-to-have,” but a survival baseline for enterprises.
Independently developed by Info2soft, i2Availability, an application high-availability management software, was selected for the Golden Ape Technology List thanks to multiple breakthrough core technologies, becoming one of the most representative innovations in high availability and disaster recovery this year.
Core technical value of i2Availability:
- Byte-level real-time data replication
Enables real-time data capture and precise replication at the data layer, ensuring zero data loss for critical business systems. - Second-level disaster takeover + application-level high availability
Based on Info2soft’s proprietary DOT (Disaster Overlap Technology), the system can achieve second-level failover during failures, with almost no perceived impact on business operations. - Cross-platform, cross-storage, cross-cloud architecture support
Eliminates dependence on shared storage and fully supports virtualization, private cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud environments—effectively addressing high-availability challenges in heterogeneous IT architectures. - Intelligent monitoring and automatic failover
Automatic anomaly detection, takeover, and failback significantly reduce operational complexity and human error risks.
Behind i2Availability lies Info2soft’s proprietary patented technologies, which effectively reduce public network bandwidth consumption during remote disaster recovery log collection—balancing performance and cost control and fully demonstrating engineering-grade innovation.
If high availability ensures systems “never stop,” then backup represents the enterprise’s final line of defense.
As one of Info2soft’s flagship products, i2Backup Intelligent Data Backup and Recovery Management System, backed by over a decade of continuous evolution and large-scale validation across thousands of industry customers, was honored as a “Ten-Year Benchmark Product.”
This recognition is not just an award, but authoritative affirmation of its long-term technological vitality and industrial value.
Why i2Backup earns its “ten-year benchmark” status:
- Continuously evolving technical capabilities
From early basic backup functions to today’s full-scenario data protection platform covering databases, big data, virtualization, cloud, and data lakes, i2Backup has evolved to V9.1, with performance and functionality fully benchmarking against international leading products. - Extensive deployment in high-demand industries
Serving 1,000+ industry customers, i2Backup has been widely adopted in finance, government, healthcare, energy, and manufacturing sectors, successfully replacing foreign backup systems such as NetBackup (NBU). - A benchmark for domestic and trusted replacement (Xinchuang)
Fully compatible with domestic CPUs, operating systems, and databases, supporting one-click policy migration and backup copy transfer, i2Backup has become a representative solution for systematic domestic backup software replacement. - In an era of frequent ransomware attacks and increasingly strict compliance requirements, i2Backup is no longer just a “backup tool,” but a cornerstone for building enterprise digital resilience.
In the AI era, what determines an enterprise’s long-term competitiveness is not merely scale or speed, but resilience and the ability to operate continuously amid uncertainty. Standing at the starting point of a new decade, Info2soft will continue to take data replication as its core foundational capability, work closely with ecosystem partners, and drive the continuous evolution and integration of high availability, disaster recovery, and data security technologies—helping more industries build secure, reliable, stable, and sustainable digital infrastructure, and providing solid support for development in the intelligent era.
