is BigIP capabale of providing auomatic site failover for SAP HANA? Has it been tested and validated for such failover solution?

SAP HANA system replication provides HA solution to protect site failoures. What is missing is the detection of primary site and redirecting clients to the DR site in an automated way. Is BigIP the right product to achive this? If not which F5 solution serves this purpose?

  • At a high level, GTM should be able to give you DR failover capability. GTM would handle this through DNS and health monitoring. Depending on your setup though, this function could also be handled by LTM.

     

    If you'll elaborate a bit more about your environment, a better recommendation could be made.
