Symantec NetBackup is certified to back up SAP HANA, an in-memory database that processes data much faster than traditional databases. NetBackup provides application-consistent backups, media management, load balancing, and disaster recovery for SAP HANA. It benefits SAP HANA with live streaming backups, deduplication to reduce storage needs, and point-in-time recovery unavailable through disaster recovery alone. NetBackup supports backup of SAP HANA versions on certified hardware from vendors like Fujitsu and HP.

1. Better Backup for Big Data: SAP HANA速
Better business decisions start with better backup
Solution Overview: Backup and Disaster Recovery
Introduction
Symantec NetBackup is an industry-leading solution for data
backup and recovery. What makes NetBackup attractive to so
many customers is its flexibility, scalability, and performance.
NetBackup protects heterogeneous environments from
Windows速, Linux速, and UNIX速, virtual and physical
environments, and can also protect applications like
Microsoft速 Exchange, SQL速, SharePoint速, Oracle速, SAP速, and
IMB DB2速. It also boasts efficient enterprise proven
deduplication, storage lifecycle policies, and differentiating
disaster recovery capabilities. With an extensive hardware
compatibility list and OpenStorage Technology (OST)
integration with many partner vendors, as well as a choice in
form factor with our award-winning appliances, NetBackup
always keeps up with the ever-changing enterprise landscape.
In keeping up with new technologies, Symantec is excited to
announce being the industry's first certified vendor for
backing up SAP HANA速. SAP HANA is an In-Memory Database
(IMDB) appliance that is able to process data up to 10,000
times faster than traditional database applications. Because
of the large amounts of data being processed, the IMDB is
considered part of the Big Data landscape, and since industry
experts predict almost a quarter of Data Warehouse and
Online Transaction Processing Systems will be replaced by
IMDB's by 2016, now is the time to make sure a sound backup
and recovery strategy is in place for SAP HANA environments.
Key benefits
Most critical databases have a high availability/disaster
recovery solution in place to make sure they keep their
environment up and running, but it is just as important to
have a backup strategy for SAP HANA. Disaster recovery is not
enough. A proper integrated backup solution can complement
a disaster recovery solution for end-to-end data protection,
covering some scenarios disaster recovery doesn't take into
account. NetBackup for SAP HANA can resolve these gaps.
Being SAP HANA certified also allows NetBackup more
benefits over non-certified solutions because NetBackup uses
a modified SAP-NetBackup agent that can communicate with
SAP HANA through the Application Programming Interface
(API).
Benefits of NetBackup for SAP HANA:
Live streaming, application consistent backups
Integrated media management and capacity management
functionality
Easy to use so there is nothing new a database admin
needs to learn with backup and recovery natively
integrated into SAP HANA studio
Media server load balancing so users can scale and
performance options in NetBackup
Disaster recovery for backed up data via NetBackup Auto
Image Replication (AIR)
Deduplication for backup sets
NetBackup has a long and proven history of solid
integration with SAP and MAXDB
Benefits complimenting disaster recovery:
Provides cost savings for protecting data sets not requiring
Tier-1 critical SLA's for recovery
Allows data retention compliancy to be met
Provides point in time recovery for certain failures like
human error, which disaster recovery solutions don't
necessarily cover

2. Features and specifications
SAP HANA comes in the form of an appliance and is offered on
hardware from a number of certified vendors. NetBackup
protection for SAP HANA is provided through the NetBackup
agent, which is installed on the appliance, and allows
NetBackup to communicate with the SAP HANA studio
management piece for SAP HANA. The SAP HANA
management piece and NetBackup communicate through the
SAP backing interface. This allows SAP HANA to send live data
streams to NetBackup, which uses an SAP policy to manage
the backed up data sets providing destination target(s),
retention, duplication, and replication for disaster recovery
purposes. Here are the requirements and supported software
versions for backing up SAP HANA with NetBackup:
SAP HANA requirements:
Appliance running SUSE速 Enterprise Linux (SLES) 11 SP1
