High availability for critical systems and applications

SharePlex ensures your Oracle databases are always up and running

Published February 2014

High availability means different things to different organizations. Some companies measure the response time in a given application. If it is within a certain threshold, the system is considered available. Other organizations continually sample transaction or network throughputs to determine whether the system is considered available.

An Oracle database is often an integral part of a business application, any availability problems with the database immediately impact the business application using the database. Therefore, for an application to be highly available, the underlying Oracle databases must also be highly available.

This whitepaper explains how SharePlex can help organizations ensure high availability of their Oracle databases to improve overall system availability.
