availability
Hardware failure / Malfunction
including Networks
Software Malfunction /
security threat / update
Natural / Man-made disasters
Failure of compliance &
operation
Unplanned outages
Continuous availability – a must have for many companies
Provides access to
business functions
24x7 business e.g. ecommerce, PoS, mobile devices,
global business, deployments
Enables access to
innovations currently introduction of new
functions requires a system outage – functions are developed but not
implemented

The ZDO considers customer
transport requests:
Use of customer buffer to add
customer transport requests to
ZDO procedure
All customer transports are
imported and activated in
uptime
The SUM calls main manual
post-processing steps after
update automatically in uptime,
e.g. RGZZGLUX, RV80HGEN
The Zero Downtime Option of
SUM performs the phases of
the execution roadmap step in

ZDO Planning Size & Time
Reference: recommended size for the shadow instance in the SUM advanced mode
Software Update Manager procedure: ca. 140 GB
Advanced mode (incl. nZDM, customer transports): ca. 80 – 350 GB
The hardware resource demand for ZDO is expected to be comparable
Factors of ZDO procedure runtime
upgrade procedure (SUM standard mode)
setup of bridge system
customer transports
The overall runtime is only predictable with comparable tests / history

ZDO – further ideas Concept to Tackle Remaining Downtime
Plans for a future ZDO version (*) Most importantly for Banking, Gateway and EWM
Controlled parallel use ~3 min • Login to version 2 possible
• Read scenarios possible in version 2
• Changes to shared and cloned
tables disabled on version 2
• Finalizing transactions on version 1
Managed System cool down ~ x h - Batch jobs only if runtime fits to switch time
- Use LIS with “direct delta”, synchronous execution
- Use “update task local”: synchronous execution
- Fully automated and standardized
Version 1
Version 2
Version 2 fully operational
(*) These ideas describe work in progress. No statements about if an when this will be delivered can be made at this time.
