3 Simple Ways To Evaluate Your Current Data Backup Program
1.Am I Backing Up Off-Site?
Data is only safe if it is located in more than one place. If you are backing up to a drive on top of your computer or sticking a thumb drive in your desk drawer than you are at risk. You have not even thought about fire, flood, theft, even employee sabotage. That thumb drive you are carrying in your pocket could cause a lot of trouble in the wrong hands. Our Data Deposit encrypts your data and sends it off site automatically. We eliminate the "element of human error". We will also work to help you create a strategy to secure data on site, in your network.
2.Those Backup tapes Are Running, But Are They Working?
When was the last time you did a restore? Are you sure your the backup tapes are actually recording something? We have seen this way too many times. A business looses their data and "thinks" it is backed up. They load the tapes and those tapes they have been cycling for years are blank. Our data Deposit service alerts us (or you)via e-mail when there is a failed backup. When used in conjunction with our managed services it is even monitored 24/7.
3.How Long Can I Operate Without My Server?
That is a frightening thought. What if you did what you were supposed to and backed up off site? Everything was working great, and all the sudden your server dies. Business is at a standstill. Everything is being done on pen and paper. A new server won't be there for 3 or 4 days express! In todays business world 3 days can be an eternity. Our Data Deposit Premium service could have saved you. We image your entire server. (YES, We even image the programs.) If your server goes down our server virtualization kicks in. You will be back up and running in a few minutes. Dead server and all! We had already virtualized your server on site, and then even backed it up off site. Data Deposit to the rescue again.

Restore Server Operations In Less Than A Half Hour!
Now there’s a superior backup and disaster recovery solution thatmatches your business needs…and fits within your budget.
NAS vs. Tape
Though tape backup is common, it’s far from being an ideal BDR solution. Analysts have said that over half of tape backups fail, so chances are that if you need to restore from tape, you’ll be out of luck. But assuming all goes well with tape backup, how does it compare with the NAS appliance?
What Happens If My Server Crashes?
Now let’s look at how our solution keeps your business running if, for instance, an e-mail server goes down. Because the device takes snap shots every 15 minutes, administrators can choose a point in time shortly before the problem occurred and with just a few clicks of the mouse, this appliance allows you to activate it as a virtual server to keep business processes up and running while we diagnose the problem and plan a course of action for the down email server.
In the event of a catastrophic server failure, our business continuity solution also includes a boot CD that allows us to perform a bare metal restore on new hardware in a fraction of the time of a typical server rebuild. And, this NAS device restoration will allow you to eliminate the hardware abstraction layer during the restore process so that the new drivers can be loaded on the server replacement, no matter which server brand is used — giving you speedy recovery options in times of crisis.
Recovery after a Catastrophe
If a disaster results in your end-client losing their entire office — servers and on-site NAS included— you order a newly imaged NAS with the most current backup-normally the last daily that was done, to be shipped out via next business-day air transportation to a location of your choice. If such an event occurs, we will not host the data at the co-location facility. Depending on the NAS model used, multiple servers can be virtualized on one NAS even as the NAS continues to perform backups of other servers.When the NAS arrives, all that needs to be done is plug in a patch cable and you’re up and running. This recovery service will allow you to use the new NAS for two weeks before it must be returned or purchased. This timeframe should allow you to get a new server ordered, in place and do a bare-metal restore from the NAS before returning the NAS. Alternatively, you can choose to keep the NAS and you will be billed for the list price of the new NAS. This would also allow you to use this NAS for the ongoing backups when you move forward, re-establishing your network.
Off-Site Storage Facility
For additional protection in the event of a complete disaster, data is securely transferred to an off-site co-location facility on a daily basis. Then, in event of such an occurrence, you will receive a new NAS device imaged with your latest data. The storage facilities are two XO high-availability data centers in Phoenix and Baltimore. They provide:- Backup images stored at the data centers on a Storage Area Network (SAN) at the primary facility, then replicated to the secondary facility
- Connectivity provided by multiple providers with automatic fail over capabilities
- Facilities provide two fiber optic network drops for our backbone
- Full physical security at each facility including security cameras and key card access
- Network is secured with high-end redundant, automatic fail over firewalls
- Fire suppression and environmental control provided
- Automatic back-up power provided with on-site generators
