With all the hype around backup & recovery there is no shortage of cloud storage and backup providers offering backup services but it is important to remember that backup is NOT the same as disaster recovery and having a disaster recovery plan in place will save your bacon when something goes wrong.
Ask yourself which data is critical to ensure the continual running of your business. You need to know how long it will take you to retrieve your data in the event of a system loss and put a plan in place to minimise downtime of your business.
Rather than worrying about how to recover the business critical data that has been lost we are seeing a trend that our customers are more concerned with their data always being available.
Very few businesses would risk not backing up their data offsite but this is only a small part of the whole disaster recovery process.
In a nutshell your business continuity plan must include the availability of the offsite data when the onsite data is not available.
Let Datanet be part of your Business Continuity Plan. At Datanet we have two business continuity suites you can come and use in the event of a system loss. Datanet can provide you with a desk, phone line and Internet connection. Our helpful technical team can spin up as many virtual servers as you need on which you can restore your critical data and we will work with you to ensure that you have your IT infrastructure up and running in the shortest time possible.
Call Datanet today on 01252 810010 so that we can help you to formulate your business continuity plan and safeguard your business against disaster.
