MCLEAN, Va.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Virtustream, an enterprise-class cloud company and Dell Technologies business, today announced new Managed Availability Services that promise to deliver 99.95% availability for mission-critical SAP applications.

The new Managed Availability Services complement Virtustream’s xStreamCare services for customers’ SAP applications on the Virtustream cloud. Virtustream already offers availability service-level agreements (SLAs) for both infrastructure and applications. However, customers can now implement Managed Availability Services to improve their application up-time SLA from 99.9% to an impressive 99.95%, according to Virtustream.

Businesses hosting their SAP applications on Virtustream’s cloud can now take advantage of its new Managed Availability Services, an add-on to Virtustream’s existing xStreamCare services for SAP applications. The new services increase application availability, further reducing the costs and business risks associated with planned and unplanned downtime.

The Managed Availability Services combine deep application-aware monitoring with automated failover capabilities to ensure maximum up-time for an enterprise’s most critical SAP applications. The solution actively monitors the entire SAP environment, including servers, storage, operating system, network, databases and applications to detect and remediate problems early.

Managed Availability Services leverage enterprise-class technologies, such as SAP HANA® system replication (HSR), in order to provide numerous customer benefits, including protection against hardware and software failures, potential of near-zero planned downtime, and an end-to-end approach for each stage of the journey.

The service consists of clustering software licenses and the planning and deployment of a cluster, including provisioning, installation and configuration. Available today globally, click here to learn more or here to contact us today.
