Remote Server Recovery using our Cloud Cover Protection

Many companies backup their servers every day to tape. An article in Search Security magazine reports that in a survey of 500 IT departments, as many as 20% of routine nightly backups fail to capture all data. Worse still 40% of IT managers were unable to recover data from a tape when they needed it.

The point in time you can recover your systems should disaster strike is known as the ‘Recovery Point’. Using tape backup guarantees hours of lost data in the event of a disaster. Suppose, for example, that you take regular nightly backups, and that a critical system fails any time today; the best you can do is recover to yesterday’s data, which will be at least twelve hours old. The later in the day disaster strikes, the older the data from which you’ll recover. In addition, recovering from a disaster, any data not backed up is lost for good – unless you can recreate it.

Our Cloud Cover service can remove the risk of data loss and guarantee your business systems are back within hours of a disaster:

Operational within minutes of a disaster due to duplicate copies of your IT systems being available for use from our secure data centre. Accessed from wherever your staff might be, these duplicate systems will look just like the ones you were using immediately before the incident.

Continuously replicates your IT systems to our data centre 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Every change that occurs on your site is duplicated to ours; every e-mail, every transaction, every document, every program. Your servers are completely protected.

We perform the recovery for you, which reduces the dependency on your own IT staff to be involved. You won’t have to wait for replacement equipment to arrive or wait for your IT staff to turn up at our data centre facility. The virtualDCS team takes care of it.

Loss of access to your office can cause you serious problems. We make it easy for your staff to work from anywhere with an Internet connection; whether that’s from a workplace recovery centre, an alternative office or even from home. Our solutions are highly flexible.

Restoring normal operations after a disaster is a unique service that we offer. We can help you to get back up and running on your old site or even in a new one. Once we’ve finished, normal operations will be transferred back to your site, just as they were before the incident.

We know that all businesses are different, so we provide custom recovery plans for each client. Call us now to discuss your specific requirements
