20140164335 | DATABASE IN-MEMORY PROTECTION SYSTEM - A computer-implemented process provides data protection of an in-memory database. The method may include triggering the securing of data of the in-memory database to a first savepoint; securing data of the in-memory database to the first savepoint; and backing up the data of the first savepoint on a persistent storage medium. The data of the first savepoint may be stored on a first persistent medium and the backup data of the first savepoint are stored on a second persistent storage medium. The availability of two different savepoint data on physically different storage media increases the probability of having always savepoint data ready for recovery purposes dramatically. By using different storage media, even in cases of a hardware damage savepoint data will be available. | 06-12-2014 |
