On-Site Data Backup & Virtualization
Like with the On-Site Data Backup solutions we provide, this solution covers not only the backups for endpoint but also virtualized systems, too! Should you choose to solely focus on the virtual systems and forgo the endpoint, you are free to do so within the tier of packaging.
Should you require a constant round-the-clock backup of your virtualized systems or, virtual instances we can design a backup plan for your virtual environment(s) that will work for you. From backups, deployments all the way down to retention policy. Should something impact a guest OS or, a particular application due to software change or update? No worries. You can simply roll back to a previous image and continue from where you left off. We can even lock snapshots in a "known good state" so that if anything does go wrong, you have peace of mind knowing there is a working state you can revert to.
With a managed services package from us, we will know when and if a backup drive has failed, notify you with instructions and you're backup and running again within about an hour of any interruption thus minimizing the loss of business or financial transactions to your organization.
Additional Services
If you are seeking to establish a criticality matrix for your data, we can assist with creating these labels and sorting your data to help keep important files protected! This will save you and your business time and money. A full system backup can take hours! Limiting the backups to important files will not only save you time it will also save you storage fees and not create a bottleneck on your systems during a backup! For more information about data criticality please ask us about how we can help you and your business with a criticality report.
How it Works
-
Choosing a Backup Type
Your environment is assessed based on the type of data your create, edit and utilize on a day-to-day basis. Once an agreed solution and size is selected for your environment, the selected hardware and components are purchased for your business.
-
Backup Failure
Depending on the malfunction and service package you've selected. Typically a notification e-mail with instructions is sent to the customer once a malfunction happens at the backup level. Once the instructions are followed the customer is then instructed to contact us for further actions. At this point, we will assist with the rebuild while an RMA process is setup for a failing drive. Mostly, the customer is 95% hands off.
-
Remote Support
Not only will we assist with a backup failure, but if in the event you sustain a system malfunction, we will provide remote support to either start a recovery of the system that malfunctioned or setup a new system while the old one is being repaired so that you can continue operations. Best part of it all is, all your old data is available to the new system while the broken system is being repaired. Minimal loss, minimal down time!
-
Additional Support
Need additional coverage? Not a problem! We can work with your company to setup replacement systems, have disk images pushed and other backup solutions that can help you save time and minimize revenue loss to your business.
-
24/7 System Monitoring
24/7 x 365 Monitoring assures that your systems, hard drives and data are protected! Should a disk fail you will be alerted with instructions and we will take care of the rest. On top of hardware monitoring we also monitor system and software versions and set schedules for remote / onsite backups as well as upgrades so you can focus on your business.
-
Managed Vs. Unmanaged
Unmanaged services are services provided to your organization that your environment is responsible for maintaining, repairing and or upgrading. Managed services are provided by Network Defense Solutions, Inc. that cover repair*, maintenance* and upgrades*.
