SERVO
Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery
Many organisations are dependent upon their IT systems for their
day to day operations. SERVO is designed to keep
all of your data available and up to date in the
event of a hardware, software, security, access or
environmental problem. Your data is replicated in a
real time mode to a secure virtual server located in
a high security centre. In the event of a problem
you will be operational again in a few hours and
accessing your up to date data from any location
with internet access.
Conventionally people back up data to tapes and take the tapes off
site or transfer the data to another site. In the
event of a disaster the backup has to be restored to
servers and the system made operational. This can
take many days to locate replacement servers and
office space. The alternative has been to run a
very expensive fully equipped second office.
SERVO overcomes all of this. No second set of servers, no
alternative office and your data ready and available
within a few hours.
Downtime costs can be measured in thousands of pounds per hour.
Long downtime can close a business. How long could
you operate without emails for example. Apart from
good business practice the regulatory authorities
require that you have a Business Continuity Plan.
Real-time replication with SERVO overcomes this.
