HVR (discontinued) vs. SAP Replication Server

HVR is a real-time replication tool, if you want to centralize your database to cloud in order to provide the best services to your clients or end-users then HVR plays a vital role. multiple sources such as on-premises and cloud databases need to be combined or out together on cloud for creating a centralized warehouse then HVR is very much useful as a replication tool. HVR is a very robust tool.

Rep Server is great for creating a warm standby server and backup copies of data. What is great about replication server is it is replicating transactions, not disk blocks. So transactions are also consistent and no corruption is ever replicated. I have not found a situation where Rep Server can't handle what we're asking for, however, at times it can be difficult to program. Doing data transformations can be a little tricky and you need very knowledgeable DBAs and Developers that understand the product. Rep Server uses a publish and subscribe model and can do cross platform data migrations.

SAP support has been outstanding. They have quick response times and always meet their SLAs. Any time we have an issue that needs to be researched they are able to get back to us quickly with resolution.

HVR was cost-efficient to us compare to other tools also we had a demo with our data and found out that HVR's performance is much better when replicating data from SAP to Snowflake compare to any other tool. A huge volume of data can be handled very easily. Also, the connectivity with the number of sources to pull the data is very good and they are continuously adding more sources.
