Db2 Hybrid Cloud HADR Clusters
Modern Db2 environments need to be always available, resilient to failure, and flexible enough to run across on-premises, private cloud, and public cloud platforms.
Db2 Hybrid Cloud HADR (High Availability and Disaster Recovery) clusters enable organisations to run Db2 wherever it makes sense: on-prem, in the cloud, or across multiple clouds, while maintaining continuous availability and rapid recovery.
This approach allows Db2 to run everywhere you need it, with the option to operate all cloud environments at the same time, rather than relying on a single platform or location.
Why Db2 Hybrid Cloud HADR Clusters?
Recent outages at major cloud providers have shown that even the largest platforms can fail, disrupting services for banks, retailers, and critical infrastructure.
For organisations that rely on continuous access to data, resilience must start at the data layer, not just the infrastructure layer.
Db2 Hybrid Cloud HADR clusters provide a solution by combining on-premises reliability, cloud scalability, and geographic resilience.
They allow organisations to modernise Db2 availability without abandoning existing investments or becoming locked into a single cloud provider.
