Business Continuity & Disaster RecoveryBusiness Continuity & Disaster Recovery A good backup is only the beginning of a comprehensive Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery plan. Many companies think that because they have a backup tape or online backup, that they are covered. In reality, any plan that is untested is at best a only a theory. Real world system recovery testing is vital to timely and reliable disaster recovery. Studies show that a large percentage of companies that fail to recover vital data and systems following server failure do not survive the disaster. Even if systems are recovered, the amount of downtime can be frightfully expensive in lost productivity and customer confidence. Increasingly, regulatory agencies, and even insurance underwriters are demanding a verifyable disaster recovery plan. Fortunately new technologies are available that leverage image based local backups, offsite replication, and virtualization technologies to achieve reliable, verifiable, and rapid system recovery to either on premise or off-site standby servers. Blueline Engineers can implement and test these robust solutions in your environemnt.
