Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity
When data security and availability are critical to the success of their businesses, SAP customers require a solution that protects their information systems from disasters, such as power outages, earthquakes, fires, floods, or acts of vandalism. The effects of a disaster range from temporary loss of availability to outright physical destruction of a facility and its assets.
In the event of such a disaster, the SAP Business Suite must allow customers to shift their information-processing activities to another site as quickly as possible. Procedures for disaster recovery must be predictable, well-defined, and immune to human error.
Ensure the availability of business critical data by coupling clustering technologies with replication facilities:
- HP Storage Disaster Tolerant Solution for SAP Business Suite enhances a high-availability cluster solution on various operating system platforms based on Oracle® or Microsoft® SQL Server
- With the HP Storage EVA and Continuous Access, data and log files can be replicated between two sites, resulting in a simpler solution to manage and does not require the maintenance of a database at the second site. Key EVA replication facilities also include Business Copy and Replication Solutions Manager
- This solution allows the failover and recovery time in minutes to a remote computing site. In a Microsoft Cluster Server (MSCS) configuration the solution can be further enhanced with automatic fail-over capabilities using the Serviceguard and HP Storage Cluster Extension EVA (CLX) products.
