Zusammenfassung:A method for providing a secondary backup application as a backup for a primary application, particularly for a predictive standby in distributed systems. The method includes the following steps are carried out by a predictive standby manager: receiving application-specific state data, the application-specific state data being obtained from monitoring a state of the primary application; receiving platform-specific state data, the platform-specific state data being obtained from monitoring a state of at least one platform that executes the primary application; initiating a backup process for using the secondary backup application based on the received application-specific state data and the platform-specific state data.
