SharePlex®: Perform database migrations with zero downtime

Hi. My name is Susan Wong. And I'm a subject matter expert for SharePlex at Quest Software. We all know that significant downtime can be a burden when moving a database from one server to another, whether it's for a hardware refresh, or you are setting up a new data center, or perhaps a new disaster recovery site. If your environment requires system availability 24 hours a day to maximize revenues and deliver the best possible experience for your users and customers, what then are your alternatives? What if your database could be moved to another server with no disruption to end users or to critical business operations? What if you could create a synchronized copy of your database on a new platform with a zero downtime for mission-critical database migrations? What if, instead of taking down the old database and then building the new one from ground up, your users could keep working on the original database while the new database is being created? With SharePlex, this is possible. It keeps the data synchronized between the old and the new databases so that users can move to the new system when the time is right. Not only is there zero downtime while the new database is being created, risk is minimized after migration to the new environment, because SharePlex replicates the data changes back to the old system. So if there are any issues early on, the application can be switched back to the old system. And the end users will be able to continue working normally while the issues are resolved. Maybe your database migration was prompted by a need to move to a more affordable platform. But if you encounter downtime during that migration, you're losing revenue and incurring operational costs. You're defeating the purpose. What if you could safely and affordably move data to your platform of choice with zero downtime and zero data loss? With SharePlex, you can choose your platform, whether that be Oracle Enterprise to Oracle Standard Edition, open source, like my SQL or PostgreSQL, or even a cloud environment. Ready to learn more?
