Disaster Recovery and Backup

The expertise to ensure critical systems can be online in hours should disaster strike.

In business things can go wrong, disasters can occur meaning business continuity is critical. Therefore, it’s essential to have a plan to get back on track should an incident happen – this is where Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) comes in.

Disaster Recovery as a Service is sub set of Business Continuity and acts as a backup service model that uses cloud resources to protect applications and data from disruption caused by a disaster. It also provides a total system back up that allows business continuity in the event of a fundamental system failure.

Our disaster recovery service will help your business with planning and managing incidents of all shapes and sizes.

How ready are you for a disaster striking your organisation?

When thinking about disaster recovery planning we’d encourage any IT decision makers to consider the following five questions was a means of gauging their readiness:

  • Do you have a disaster recovery plan in place to protect your business?
  • Do you know how to test the integrity of your data and, if yes, when you last tested it?
  • Is your data backed up off site in case an incident occurs?
  • How long would it take your organisation to recover your systems?
  • Do you know the true cost of the downtime associated with a disaster, in both lost productivity and reputational damage with your customers?
  • If you answer ‘no’ to any of these questions, then you should consider a managed disaster recovery service.

That’s why it is important for organisations to ensure that if the worst does happen, then there is a plan in place to get things back on track. If you don’t already we strongly recommend having a fully customised DR plan or consider having an established IT partner who can collaborate with you to create, test and implement your plan.
