Business Continuity Manager is a new generation product for disaster recovery and high availability ensuring seamless business continuity.
Key features of Business Continuity Manager:
- Provides near real-time object and data synchronization, achieving Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) of seconds and Recovery Point Objectives (RPO) ranging from minutes to hours.
- Routing, load-balancing, and failover capabilities, ensuring high system availability for reporting, disaster recovery, and business continuity.
- Supports one active and one standby system.
- Supports Replication on the Side (ROS), which establishes a direct connection with Teradata systems instead of routing connections through Business Continuity Manager. This feature is optional. For more information, see Replication on the Side (ROS)
Business Continuity Manager applies changes to the standby system using one of the following methods:
- SQL Multicast for deterministic SQL statements, replays the exact SQL statement on the standby system.
- Change Data Multicast (CDM) for non-deterministic SQL, applies the actual data from the primary system to the standby system.
Business Continuity Manager supports two types of routing rules:
- Managed routing is employed when data synchronization is necessary.
- Passive routing applies to non-data synchronization scenarios, where sessions are routed to the stand-by site and data synchronization is managed outside Business Continuity Manager.
