Seven Minutes to Full Disaster Recovery for the HP NonStop System at the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care

Overview Seven minutes is all the time it took the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care to switch its Health Network System (HNS) from its primary processing environment to backup disaster recovery procedures when a network outage occurred during peak production hours. The HNS system has relied on HP NonStop servers for more than 12 years and provides the highest levels of availability for around-the-clock patient drug profile information used in hospital 24 x 7 emergency departments, for adjudication of drug claims for pharmacies, and for other related services. Because the HNS system is critical to the Ministry and to Ontario's pharmacies and emergency services, HP NonStop Remote Database Facility (NonStop RDF) software was chosen for use in its disaster recovery implementation.
