High Availability and Disaster Recovery
Maintain continuous access to your data
Ensure business continuity and disaster recovery – minimise downtime and always achieve your recovery time objectives (RTO). SAP HANA is designed to deliver continuous system availability and protect your business from a broad range of outages, whether caused by a local software error or a natural disaster.
With SAP HANA high availability features, you benefit from a rock-solid foundation – an enterprise-class, in-memory data platform designed for continuous operation, even during failures.

Virtualisation
Leverage virtualisation to lower costs
Boost efficiency and agility – while reducing the cost of IT operations – by running SAP HANA in a virtualisation environment. Host multiple, isolated database instances on one or more servers – so that each database instance appears as if running on a separate machine. This helps lower costs, while maintaining high performance.
SAP has partnered with VMware and Hitachi to support virtualisation across production and non-production installations and deployments.
