Stay in Business by Protecting Your Data – Your Most Valuable Asset

In the January/February issue of The Connection we announced two new synchronization facilities: HPE Shadowbase Zero Data Loss and HPE Shadowbase DoLockStep Synchronization Facility. Our Development Team has been hard at work and is excited to announce that both of these Synchronization Facilities are now released under Controlled Availability.

Many NonStop customers have never experienced a catastrophic outage and its consequences.

• Understanding these implications, and in particular lost data, is critical to assessing business risk.
• Most customers have a backup system and a data replication engine; however, they are at serious risk of losing some of their critical data if a failure occurs, because they rely on Asynchronous Technology.
• Transactional data can be lost during a source system failure since data committed on the source may not yet be replicated to the backup due to latency.

HPE Shadowbase DoLockStep allows the application and the replication engine to synchronize their application processing across critical points. In some environments, this synchronization may be sufficient to protect valuable data. Shadowbase DoLockStep was designed to enhance and replace the functionality provided in the RDF DOLOCKSTEP feature. However, by using Synchronous Replication, like HPE Shadowbase Zero Data Loss (ZDL), no committed data loss occurs during a source system failure.
