Business Continuity
As organisations become increasingly dependent on IT, the risks to the business in the event of a failure also increase.
We provide a wide range of hardware and software components that deliver resilience and redundancy at many levels. In addition, we continually monitor the technological advances in the data storage and restore industry, including hardware and file systems. That means any business continuity need can be met by our comprehensive range of services:
- Systems & Infrastructure Health Check
- Backup and restore strategy
- Synchronisation of data
- Synchronisation of business applications
- Site-to-site replication
- De-duplication of data
- Data encryption
- Cloning
- Encrypted data backup over the Internet to secure data vaults
One thing is certain: your need for effective backup and restore capabilities will only increase in the future, as will the scale of the data concerned. Our solutions can handle any requirement up to multi-terabyte size volumes.
We can work with you to determine what level of data storage and retrieval you require. While we are very happy to advise on and implement tape-based solutions, we do recommend that clients look at online backup/restore solutions. These could include standby servers based in different locations, accessible either physically or remotely. Online solutions provide the ultimate in rapid restoration of vital business data (in some cases, within minutes) - potentially averting a total disaster.
If you are at all concerned that your current business continuity planning and facilities are not up to scratch, we offer a free half day IT Health Check from one of our experienced consultants. The outcome of their evaluation will be some valuable ideas and recommendations on minimising organisational risk.
