Online backups
Why do you need Online backups?
Your company's data is invaluable! How would you be able to trade without it?
Whilst traditional tape backup solutions are still reliable and secure, changing tapes and ensuring tapes are offsite is inconvenient and can often lead to missed backups.
The risks associated with tape based backups are sometimes unacceptable.
What are the benefits of Online backups?
- Online backup solutions ensure your data is stored securely in a location away from your main office.
- It ensures that all servers backup data automatically over the network without the need for changing and storing expensive backup tapes.
- The service is cost effective and allows the retrieval of data for up to 60 days old.
How we deliver Online backup solutions?
- Firstly, a full backup is made of the identified data set, compressed, and transmitted to the remote server.
- Incremental back ups then drip feed data to the remote storage location making sure your full data set is automatically backed up on an ongoing basis.
- All backed up data is stored on highly redundant Storage Platforms, using RAID5 file servers, in secure Data Centres, which are located in business continuity buildings owned and run by IBM Business Continuity & Recovery Services.
