Backups vs. Replication? Many companies think that if you replicate, you don’t need to backup your data. When replicating data, you make a copy of the good and the bad. If you have a problem on the sending server and you are replicating within a 15 minute window, the problem will be copied to the target server within 15 minutes. Backup allows you to restore your server to a point in time in the past when the data was uncorrupted. For complete data protection, you need both a backup and replication solution.
Disaster Recovery Services
80% of companies do not have a backup and disaster recovery plan. When they do, 90% of budgets are targeted at catastrophic disasters (e.g. hurricanes, earthquakes) rather than the more frequently occurring clinical disasters (e.g. viruses, outages, human error). In fact, 50% of outages are caused by power or network related issues. Millions of dollars are lost due to clinical disasters. To ensure survival, you must protect your business data and applications.
