Data Backup & Disaster Recovery
Cost-Effective and Accelerated Business Continuity Solutions
As you face an increasing burden to meet government regulations, create uninterrupted user experiences, and safeguard against malicious attacks, you require affordable and reliable business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR) solutions. Hosting.com addresses this need by providing cloud-based and EMC BCDR solutions for high availability, security, and compliance up to 75% cheaper than traditional BCDR deployments.
Historically, business continuity solutions have required companies to own multiple data centers, employ highly technical support and maintenance staff, and spend up to 50% of your total IT budget to guarantee an always on infrastructure. Hosting.com’s Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) and cloud hosting solutions, geographically-dispersed data center network and Cloud SuperSites, help you reduce the exorbitant costs associated with designing, maintaining and testing BCDR environments by extending your on-premise infrastructure.
The cloud makes BCDR services accessible to more companies than ever, primarily due to the high availability inherent to cloud environments and the cost effectiveness of extending existing, on-premise infrastructures across multiple data centers for failover and redundancy. Flexibility and scalability have for a long time been a limitation of physical infrastructure builds, while cloud environments allow for rapid scale and flexibility and control.
Application Recovery Considerations
Disasters come in all shapes and sizes
These can be natural or man-made, catastrophic or clinical. No matter the scenario, you must plan for such contingencies to avoid disastrous downtime. The best defense is a good offense.
Machines and hardware fail
It’s true. Software breaks and components fail. Eliminating single points of failure in the IT infrastructure is the only way to ensure that a failure doesn’t interrupt service or cause data loss.
Humans are not perfect
They make mistakes and sometimes do it on purpose. Even the most cautious can forget a step in an important process causing disastrous results. And on the more sinister hand, there are those who purposely strive to wreak havoc through viruses, malware, hacking, and more.
Customer retention is costly, and re-acquisition is devastatingly expensive.
It takes a lot to earn customers’ trust, and after an IT disaster like loss of data or an extended outage in service, trust quickly evaporates. This is especially true when customers are losing thousands of dollars per minute of downtime. It is far less expensive to prevent an IT disaster than try to re-acquire lost customers after one has occurred.
