It can also refer to moving from one cloud to another cloud. A migration may
involve moving all or just some assets
What are the types of cloud migration strategies?
There are three basic types or patterns of cloud migration. In
the order below, they run from easiest and fastest (with some
drawbacks) to more difficult (with bigger benefits).
Option 2: Backup and restore relies on SAP’s backup utility to create an image of the
database that is then transferred to Google Cloud, where it is restored in the new
environment. Downtime for this method varies by database size, so large databases may
require more downtime via this method vs. asynchronous replication
SAP HANA Scale-up and Scale-out
In a scale-up scenario, you utilize the compute, memory, network, and I/O capacity of
a single instance If you require more capacity, you can resize your instances to a
different instance type.
In a scale-out scenario, you add capacity to your SAP HANA system by adding new
instances to the SAP HANA cluster. For example, once you reach the maximum memory
capacity of a single instance, you can scale out your SAP HANA cluster and add more
instances.
One can go with either Scale-Up or Scale-Out. In this case the maximum for Scale up
and Scale Out can be 3TB/node.
Points for migration
1 High availability (HA) and disaster recovery (DR) for SAP HANA solutions are
important considerations for business continuation
Check native automatic recovery feature
2 It is important to achieve HA/DR for HANA system on cloud
3 host auto-failover fault recovery feature in scale out system
4 Deploy HANA in high-availability cluster –use
multiple availibility zones
4 Is storage level replication & system l replication
SAP HANA hardware partners offer a storage-level replication solution, which
replicates the SAP HANA storage volumes (data, logs, etc.) or file system on a remote,
networked storage system to recover the SAP HANA system with low RTO during a
disaster.
45HANA System Replication HANA System Replication (HSR) is a high availability and
disaster recovery solution provided by SAP. HSR follows the “N+N” approach, where
you configure the same number of nodes for both the primary and the secondary
system.
HANA BACKUP & RESTORE
Although SAP HANA is an in-memory database, it persists all changes in persistent
storage to recover and resume from power outages without any loss of data.
Persisted SAP HANA data and log files can be regularly backed up to a remote
location for disaster recovery purposes
