Data Backup

Data is the lifeblood of an orga­ni­za­tion.  From account­ing data to cus­tomer pref­er­ences, rotary wing spec­i­fi­ca­tions to med­ical his­tory, the loss of a com­pa­nies data can be both crip­pling and expen­sive.  In some cases, it can even cause sig­nif­i­cant legal issues.  Unfor­tu­nately, data backup and integrity is some­thing that many orga­ni­za­tions – big and small – take for granted.  If you are not 100% sure of the reli­a­bil­ity of your backup and data recov­ery pro­ce­dures, the time to act is now.

Data loss can be caused by hard­ware fail­ure (56%), human error (26%), soft­ware cor­rup­tion (9%), virus/spyware (4%), or nat­ural dis­as­ters (2%).  What’s more is that 60% of com­pa­nies that lose their data will shut down within six months of the disaster.

Let Inter­weave Tech­nolo­gies help your com­pany pre­vent data loss and expen­sive down time.  We will pro­vide a com­pre­hen­sive review of your data backup pro­ce­dures and, if needed, design and imple­ment a fail-safe solu­tion to meet your require­ments and your budget.

Mir­rored Systems

The opti­mal solu­tion is to have a “sys­tem” that com­pletely mir­rors your oper­a­tions.  This “mir­rored” sys­tem is syn­chro­nized real-time 24/7 so that if an out­age occurs, your oper­a­tions can be switched to the mir­rored sys­tem, some­times in a mat­ter of min­utes. This Dis­as­ter Recov­ery solu­tion is per­fect for busi­nesses with mission-critical data or oper­a­tions, such as gov­ern­ment and med­ical applications.

Vir­tual Systems

A Vir­tual Server is a replica of your pro­duc­tion server that runs in another loca­tion. The pri­mary dif­fer­ence between a Vir­tual and a Mir­rored Sys­tem is that with a Vir­tual Server there is min­i­mal hard­ware required. The Vir­tual Server can reside on a sys­tem at the Inter­weave Data Cen­ter, low­er­ing your ini­tial hard­ware costs.  If your pro­duc­tion server fails, the Vir­tual Server can be restored to a new server.

Off-Site Data Backup

One of the most com­mon solu­tions for Data Recov­ery is Off-Site Data Backup.  There are many offer­ings for this solu­tion, some more proven than oth­ers.  With Off-Site Data Backup, there is min­i­mal up-front cost, but more ongo­ing cost. You sim­ply define your “mis­sion crit­i­cal” data and sched­ule – as well as any his­tory require­ments. We’ll imple­ment your sys­tem to meet your needs.

Prepa­ra­tion for con­tin­u­a­tion or recov­ery of sys­tems needs to be taken very seri­ously. The opti­mal solu­tion for you is largely depen­dent on your busi­ness, your bud­get, and your data require­ments.  Let us work with you to develop a Dis­as­ter Recov­ery Solu­tion to pro­tect your data and your business.

Dis­as­ter Recovery

When a dis­as­ter strikes, are you pre­pared? Recent storms and events remind us of the need for data backup and sys­tem redun­dancy.  Ensur­ing the con­tin­ued oper­a­tion or rapid recov­ery of your sys­tems is crit­i­cal to the smooth oper­a­tion of a com­pany, and arguably the econ­omy as a whole.

A sim­ple backup used to be enough for peace-of-mind, but not in today’s envi­ron­ment.  Inter­weave Tech­nolo­gies offers three options to keep your oper­a­tions run­ning smoothly in case of a man-made or nat­ural dis­as­ter: mir­rored sys­tems, vir­tual sys­tems and off-site data backup.
