Effective
business continuity solutions can be an expensive “insurance
policy.” Organizations that have mission-critical
applications and zero tolerance for downtime or data loss often
establish a synchronized, redundant failover system whose sole purpose is
to ensure ongoing access to their systems during an emergency. These
systems are complex, expensive, and lie idle much of the time. Sybase Mirror Activator enhances these systems—reducing network costs, accelerating recovery time, database recovery, and guaranteeing data integrity.
While disk block replication systems perform a vital
function, they stay synchronized by replicating blocks of
data—a network-intensive process, particularly for
maintaining standby database applications. Sybase Mirror Activator works in conjunction with disk block replication synchronizing systems by replicating only the log of data that has changed and maintains data integrity in the process.
The key benefit
is that ASE applications are now synchronously and accurately
replicated to the recovery site, but consume much less bandwidth in the
process—up to 50% less. As an added benefit, the standby
system can now be used for operational activities such as decision
support and reporting, enhancing the return on investment for these
complex, costly—yet essential—disaster recovery
systems.
BENEFITS
- Reduce TCO of database disaster recovery
- Sybase Mirror Activator cuts down on required network bandwidth of
hardware-based storage database replication by as much as 50%
- Minimize business risk -
Dramatically reduces failover time for ASE database applications,
reducing business costs associated with loss of systems continuity
- Provide continuous data integrity
- Guarantees the data integrity and protects against disk corruptions.
- Turn expensive idle hardware into a
productive asset - Standby database systems can now be used
for read-only operations, such as query and reporting, improving Return
on Assets.
