Hosted Disaster Recovery
Protect your servers. Protect your business.
Hosted Disaster Recovery (or DRaaS – Disaster Recovery as a Service) is a managed service that allows replication of your businesses critical IT systems into our UK private cloud.
In the event of a disaster we work with you to bring your essential systems back online, thus allowing your business to continue operating.
Disaster can strike at any time whether it be fire, flood, theft, vandalism or sabotage to name but a few. With our Hosted Disaster Recovery service, you can mitigate all these scenarios from crippling your business.
Our Hosted Disaster Recovery Service is suitable for all IT systems. Whether you are running file services, Microsoft Exchange/SQL/Terminal Services, web servers, Citrix, Hyper-V or VMware – you name it, we can protect it.
Small in form, we dispatch to you one of our backup appliances to install on-site wherever your servers may be located. This appliance ensures we apply ultimate encryption and compression to your data, whilst it’s transmitted securely over the internet to our cloud.
Working with you throughout the process, we make sure that no stone is left unturned. From installing our backup appliance, to configuring your data backups. Our implementation engineers carefully manage the setup process, from start to finish.
Much like a fire drill, we work with you to test the recovery of your systems on a regular basis. This means you can confidently adhere to your Recovery Time Objectives (RTO’s), meaning you achieve your business compliances and have peace of mind.
If you need to “push the button” to invoke your disaster recovery plan, simply call our 24/7 hotline to get the process started. We’ll initially discuss to what level you have experienced failure, then accordingly work to get your business back on its feet as quickly as possible.
In the event of a disaster scenario, you can access your systems directly from our cloud utilising either SSL or site to site VPN connections. We also have a service whereby we can deliver you a recovered and working physical server, back to your site (within the UK).
If you have been running your services within our cloud due to a disaster, then there will come a point when you are ready to move your live services back to your IT premises. During this phase we assist you, then once complete we ensure your services are again protected.
We presently operate out of two UK tier 3 data centres that are ISO 27001, ISO 9001 and PCS DSS 2.0 compliant. You can be assured that your data and services are safe and remain within the UK.
Until recently, reliable disaster recovery has only been something larger corporations have been able to afford. With Hosted Disaster Recovery as a Service it is now much more affordable, therefore accessible now to both small and medium sized businesses.
Whether you require one server or fifty within your disaster recovery plan, we can tailor a bespoke solution for you. If you need to scale up or down, we can accommodate.
We continually monitor to ensure your IT services are successfully replicating to our private cloud. We can also configure scheduled summary reports to be emailed to you. This way you know at a glance that your business is being protected.
