What is HyperBac for SAP and how does it work?
HyperBac for SAP BRBackup is an enterprise backup and archival solution, for your SAP on Oracle environment. Working with your existing BRBackup and BRArchive techniques as well as RMAN, EXP, EXPDP and all other Oracle backup methods, HyperBac uses high performance lossless compression to reduce the size of your backup data sets by up to 90% and the time taken to perform your backups by up to 50%. In contrast, other methods which can be used to produce compressed backup sets typically incorporate aggressive compression routines which yield a compression rates somewhat equivalent to HyperBac, but introduce a CPU bottleneck, hence slowing system performance during operation. The HyperBac benefit (and hence its capacity to scale to enterprise use) is that it provides the appropriate balance between maximizing compression, ensuring transaction throughput and minimizing operation times. HyperBac works with the resultant BRBackup output data stream and thus it seamlessly integrates with SAP
