Planning SAP HANA on Azure Large Instances for HA and Disaster Recovery

Running mission-critical SAP HANA workloads in the cloud requires absolute resilience. Designing for high availability (HA) and disaster recovery (DR) on Azure Large Instances ensures business continuity and protects your organization against costly downtime. This text-based course guides you through the foundational concepts, architecture patterns, and decision-making frameworks needed to plan robust SAP HANA deployments on Azure. You will learn how to analyze infrastructure requirements, evaluate failover strategies, and structure disaster recovery protocols for large-scale enterprise environments. What you'll learn: - Understand the core architecture of SAP HANA on Azure Large Instances and bare-metal deployments. - Plan high availability configurations using clustering technologies and database replication. - Design multi-region disaster recovery strategies to meet strict recovery time and recovery point objectives. - Evaluate network topologies, storage replication options, and security considerations for enterprise workloads. - Apply modern monitoring and observability patterns to proactively detect system failures. - Prepare for enterprise-level cloud planning roles and professional workload design frameworks. The course begins with essential terminology and structural foundations before moving into planning scenarios for replication, network isolation, and failover automation. Through clear written explanations and architectural scenarios, you will build a practical blueprint for resilient cloud systems. This course is designed for beginner cloud architects, system administrators, and IT professionals looking to understand enterprise SAP planning on Azure, with no advanced prior cloud design experience required.
