11 – Detect and react to failures
How do you detect and react to failures impacting your SAP workload? Design how software or operating procedures can help ensure the health and resilience of your SAP workload. Monitor for potential and actual failures, focusing on prevention where possible. Consider whether a component is distributed or is a single point of failure and design a resiliency solution that minimizes the impact to your workload. In addition to testing periodically to understand your risk profile, examine how automation could improve your resilience.
