HP has launched what it says is the industry’s first production-proven, high availability solution to help ensure the business continuity of supply chains for those using the SAP Supply Chain Management application, including SAP LiveCache technology.

‘HP Serviceguard Extension’ integrates SAP applications into a cluster and automatically monitors the database system to help ensure that appropriate measures are taken in the event of a failure. The solution integrates the new HP Hot Standby feature of SAP LiveCache, an in-memory database, to provide organizations with uninterrupted database operations for complete, high availability protection.

HP Hot Standby moves users from a primary to a standby system as needed to maintain continuous uptime. In the case of a failure due to server, storage or software malfunctions, SAP LiveCache is fully operational again in less than two minutes(1) to safeguard that critical applications are available.
