Rapid Fire is an open source plug-in for IBM's Rational Developer for i 9.5.1.3+. It helps copying live data and reducing down times.
Do you have files with millions or even billions of records? Imagine you have to change such a file e.g. a new field has to be added. Maybe your system is really fast and you have the time to install that change at the weekend. But what to do if your shop must be available almost 24/7? In this case it is required to reduce the downtime as much as possible.
That is where Rapid Fire comes in play. Rapid Fire reduces the downtime of your system to a minimum. Instead of shutting down the system for hours or even days you will be offline for a couple of minutes.
The Rapid Fire library requires V7R1 or higher. Refer to the Rapid Fire help for details.
Feature list:
- Copies live data.
- Reduces system down time.
Rapid Fire is an Open Source project that is hosted on github.com.
