Solution: i2Active Database DR, i2CDP Continuous Data Protection (Local + Remote DR Deployment)
With growing IT systems and expanding business operations, the company faced critical risks such as production downtime, data loss, and complex backup maintenance. Its UFIDA (Yonyou) software database had a single point of failure risk, increasing the chance of service interruptions and data loss. The IT operations team required a complete disaster recovery framework to ensure continuous data protection and high availability.
Customer Challenge
- Single point of failure — The Yonyou database risked outages and data loss.
- Complex backup maintenance — Traditional methods were inefficient and difficult to manage.
- High continuity risk — System failures or human errors could cause serious downtime.
I2 Solution
- Database Synchronization with i2Active: Achieved high-speed, non-intrusive Oracle database capture and synchronized to embedded virtual machines in the DR appliance.
- Continuous Data Protection with i2CDP: Backed up critical system data to appliance-based VMs, synchronized backups to the IDC DR host, and enabled real-time data synchronization between IDC systems and DR appliance VMs.
Solution Effects
- Built a multi-layer DR architecture covering database, applications, and business systems.
- Enabled same-city multi-copy synchronization for databases, improving resilience and query performance while reducing primary database load.
- Added CDP protection for standby databases to prevent logical errors and ensure recoverability.
- Simplified complex data synchronization through a centralized visual management platform.
