BACKUP & RECOVERY
Introduction
All businesses and enterprises need reliable, efficient data protection and recovery – it is fundamental to business survival.
Key Considerations
- Backup speed
- Recovery time
- Reliability
- Simplicity
Features & Benefits
Backup speed – Once the first backup is complete, updates should take only a few minutes each day,
Recovery time – Businesses should establish a recovery time objective (RTO) and a recovery point objective (RPO). RTO is the time by which a business process must be restored after a disaster or disruption to avoid unacceptable consequences of a break in business continuity. RPO is essentially the minimum frequency of backups – which translates to the amount of time and data that would be acceptable to lose in the event of a disaster.
Reliability – By ensuring both best practices and high-quality, reputable storage hardware and software systems, the organization can be confident that backed up data will be there when it needs to be recovered.
