The increasing reliance of business
on IT and the rapid emergence of eBusiness and its 24x7 business paradigm are
combining to change the way businesses think about business continuity.
Where acceptable downtime was once measured in hours or even days, today it
is measured in seconds. In this data-driven economy, for many businesses there
is no acceptable level of data loss. The potential costs of downtime or data
loss are high, from reduced productivity, to lost revenue, to loss of customers
and brand value, to legal liability.
The software listed on this page can help prevent loss of critical data and
ensure uninterrupted processing in the face of disaster. As part of a business
continuity plan, you want to know that all of the critical files and tables on
your primary system are accurately replicated to your backup systems whether
they are database tables, command and control files, or spooled output. HP
Services can assist in your overall planning effort as well as helping you
install, configure, and maintain the infrastructure required to survive a
disaster.
