PROBLEM:
A paper manufacturer ran its applications on an HP NonStop Server, for data queries and analysis productions. However, it wanted to offload some of these applications from the NonStop to a Windows SQL Server environment, and it could not take its operations offline while doing so.
SHADOWBASE SOLUTION - Data Integration Systems:
- Though the new applications reside on the SQL Server system, certain application functions dealing with processing the incoming data feed must remain on the NonStop server.
- The NonStop server continues to receive and process the data feed, and then trickle-feed the results to the SQL Server system via asynchronous data replication.
