Abstract

A real-time customer relation management system is disclosed. The system can provide increased availability, reduced internal latencies, and reduced data processing and transfer. The system can provide real time processing and batch processing. The system architecture can have an in-memory write-through cache. The cache can store data that would have otherwise been sent to a database. The system can have a backup in-memory write-through cache. The system can use a warm standby, for example, to enhance data backup efficiency.
