Taizhou People’s Hospital

Overview

Taizhou People’s Hospital | Emergency Healthcare Facility

Country: China

Solution: i2Active, i2Availability, i2CDP, i2VP

The hospital’s core production data resided in an Oracle RAC database, with applications distributed across virtual clusters and physical servers. However, it lacked antivirus measures, rollback protection, offsite disaster recovery, and real-time database resilience, creating high risks of downtime, data loss, and operational disruption.

Customer Challenge

• No disaster recovery strategy — No offsite DR center or real-time protection for databases and applications.
• High risk exposure — Vulnerable to ransomware, accidental deletion, and large-volume backup failures.
• Business continuity gap — Inability to support emergency failover in case of downtime or data corruption.
• Urgent timeline — Fangcang hospital construction required IT systems to be online within only ten days.

I2 Solution

• Real-time Oracle RAC DR — i2Active enabled synchronous replication between the local Oracle RAC and an offsite Oracle HA system. In case of failure, disaster recovery databases could take over instantly via IP switching.
• Oracle High Availability — i2Availability provided Oracle dual-node HA, ensuring resilience against single-node database crashes and supporting rapid failover.
• Continuous Data Protection — i2CDP safeguarded core databases with microsecond-level rollback, protecting against deletion errors and ransomware.
• Agentless VM Backup — i2VP delivered full-volume, agentless backups for the hyper-converged virtualization cluster.
• Unified Recovery — Combined CDP and backup ensured multiple protection layers across databases, applications, and VMs.

Solution Effects

• Completed full disaster recovery deployment within 10 days of the Fangcang hospital’s construction.
• Enabled high reliability and business continuity for critical healthcare systems.
• Achieved real-time data protection with RPO ≈ 0 and rapid RTO.
• Provided strong digital support for pandemic response, ensuring the hospital could begin operation immediately and safely.
