- Higher confidence in backup data
- No geographical distance constraints
- Point-in-time recovery and dynamic rollback of data
- Maximize backup system value to support live, real-time reporting needs
Business and IT Challenges
For business-critical transaction systems, traditional disaster recovery solutions are simply not enough for companies seeking to improve recovery time and recovery point objectives. Particularly for those systems that directly impact revenue, customer servicing, product delivery, and other key parts of the business, the IT organization must find ideal solutions for minimizing downtime and data loss.
Overcoming Traditional Recovery Challenges
Where traditional disaster recovery, backup, and replication methods are relied upon solely, the IT department is likely to find any combination of the following issues:
- It takes longer than expected to get the backup system online.
- The backup data is not as current as within only sub-seconds of the outage.
- There is no guarantee of data integrity and accuracy at the backup.
- The failover system is not available for real use and requires a substantial, manual recovery effort.
- If the backup system has started processing transactions after the outage, there is no easy, seamless way to re-synchronize data with the primary system.
In an environment of increasing 24x7 business processes and declining user patience levels, improving the speed and reliability in getting key transactional systems back online must be an integral part of the overall IT strategy.
GoldenGate Live Standby
GoldenGate Software offers an excellent solution that allows the IT group to overcome common data recovery challenges, and thereby greatly improve their business;s ability to tolerate any range of unexpected interruptions and disasters.
GoldenGate's Live Standby is a high availability software implementation that captures transactional data from the primary system and applies it to the backup database in real time. If a failure or outage occurs at the primary system, the backup system is immediately ready and available to support users with the most current data committed at the source up to its failure point.
Further, GoldenGate Live Standby provides for bi-directional data movement so that once the primary system is ready to be brought back online, any new data processed by the backup system is applied to the primary. With this Live Standby solution, the primary and secondary systems can be kept in synch at all times. In addition, the secondary database can now be leveraged to support other business activities -- particularly, real-time "live reporting" needs.
GoldenGate Live Standby is an excellent, proven solution for unplanned outages and improving disaster tolerance for transactional data systems. Please contact us for more information on GoldenGate Live Standby, the TDM software platform, and other solutions and products.
