GoldenGate Software Provides Near Zero-Downtime Operations for Customers Migrating from HP Tru64 Unix Operating System to HP-UX
Extensive Testing done by HP on GoldenGate Product for Migrating to HP-UX using an Oracle 9i Database
San Francisco, CA - February 15, 2007 - GoldenGate Software Inc., the leading provider of high availability and real-time data integration solutions, today announced that its Zero-Downtime Operations solution will be available to help customers migrate critical applications from HP Tru64 UNIX operating system to HP-UX.
Zero-Downtime Operations ensures high availability and scalability for mission-critical applications as transaction loads increase, and c ustomers around the world are benefiting from GoldenGate's solution. GoldenGate for Zero-Downtime Operations captures transactional data and applies it to the target system with close to zero downtime during data migration, ensuring optimal availability of mission critical applications for customers.
"Companies today spend an inordinate amount of time, money and resources performing infrastructure and database maintenance tasks and as a result endure painful hours and days of downtime," said Sami Akbay, vice president of marketing for GoldenGate Software. "The availability of our Zero-Downtime Operations solution to organizations migrating to HP Integrity servers running HP-UX, ensures real-time access to mission-critical information."
After examining a number of factors during the test phase, including CPU utilization rates, throughput level, latency on the apply side and transactions per minute, HP found that GoldenGate's Zero-Downtime Operations was capable of handling significantly high transaction rates with relatively low impact on source system resources and workload performance.
"Continuous availability of data and applications is critical to many businesses, and they cannot tolerate the planned downtime required for a static database migration," said Michelle Weiss, vice president of marketing, Business Critical Systems, HP. "The combined offerings from GoldenGate and HP provide the high availability enterprises seek as they migrate from HP Tru64 to HP Integrity servers running HP-UX."
With over 300 customers in 35 countries, GoldenGate supports the world's most popular databases, including HP Enscribe, SQL-MX, SQL-MP, Oracle, MS SQL Server, Sybase, DB2 z/OS, DB2 UDB, Ingres and others.
