Disaster Recovery

Whether natural or man-made, disaster can strike. We can help you design and configure your business systems so they resist most events and, in the event of a catastrophe, can recover seamlessly. Our priority is to protect all your data and maintain your reputation for customer service.

The terminology can be confusing -

  • Disaster Recovery - what to do when fire, flood, theft etc strike, how to recover and keep your IT systems going
  • Resillience - keeping the IT systems going when something breaks, eg multiple power supplies, multiple (virtual?) servers, etc
  • Business Continuity - Keeping the business running when everything goes wrong by (for example) using a mix of hardware resillience, cloud backup, home office / serviced office to provide a complete solution

The key point to business continuity is planning, we all hope it never happens, we all know it will happen when we can least expect and cope with it. See below
