Disaster Recovery



Every modern company depends on data and operational up-time for their survival.

Business Continuance & Disaster Recovery Services


Tailored disaster recovery services to fit in with your business continuity plans. We can set up a hot standby site – a replica of your infrastructure – in any one or number of 22+ data centres, thereby eliminating all single points of failure. As well as providing popular real-time data replication and DR systems. SecureNet can provide:


  • Backup Strategies
  • VPN / Remote connectivity
  • Remote Offices and Data Centres
  • Technology contingency procedures
  • Disaster Recovery (Rapid restore of your data, servers and functionality)
  • Staff Coordination (During an emergency staff can call into our operations centre for information, directions and location)
  • Disaster Coordination Services
  • Alternative telecommunication systems


Events like fire, flood, or theft can shut down internal business processes, while lost data can severely impact employee productivity, revenues & brand reputation. Lost data can also result in contract penalties & significant fines for non-compliance.


Holistic approach to data protection to meet complex operational, disaster and long-term retention challenges.



Solution Features & Benefits


> Business continuity

> Simple and affordable DR for every company

> Protection your business without disruption

> Data sovereignty in cloud data centres

> Automatically verify the recoverability of every backup and replication

> File-level recovery
  • Restore individual files from any guest OS and file system, directly from an image-level backup without booting the VM.
  • Recover an individual file from a backup file or replication to the most recent state or to any point in time in just a few seconds.
  • Does not require you to extract VM image to the local drive or to start up the VM prior to restore — you can recover files directly from a regular image-level backup or replication.
  • For Windows-based VMs with NTFS, FAT and ReFS file systems.
  • For most commonly used file systems on Windows, Linux, Solaris, BSD, Novell Netware, Unix and Mac machines – but support more.

Oracle

Simple, Automated Testing

Automated disaster recovery testing allows verification that Business Continuity / Disaster Recovery processes are in place and will execute properly when needed. During the testing, the Oracle database is still processing, users are still working, and changes are replicated without interruption.



VMware Testing

Do anything you want to it without affecting your production environments.

Run VMs from a backup in an isolated Virtual Lab for testing or troubleshooting.

Test OS and application patches, upgrades, various workarounds, database schema changes, permission changes, new group policy objects, potential security vulnerabilities etc.



Virtual Backup & Recovery (DR)


> VMs (including Hyper-V) to physical servers

> Boot VMs Concurrently (all at once)



Physical Backup & Recovery (DR)


RTO’s & RPO’s

> Meeting Recovery Time and Recovery Point Objectives

Businesses don’t value older data the same as younger, more critical data. When formulating a backup and recovery strategy, organisations would need to establish different Recovery Point and Recovery Time Objectives (RPOs and RTOs) for different data sets.

> Enable multiple tiers of recovery



Solution Platforms
  • Appliances
  • Cloud Service


Cloud

Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) allows organisations to build a robust disaster recovery strategy, without large capital investment in 'just in case' facilities.

Unless data is replicated to a second, suitably distant data centre, any tape recovery is a total uncertainty. It is impossible to be certain of the outcome until the recovery is complete.

Range of data centre solutions that can receive a replicated copy of your data, with a frequency that enables you to meet your recovery point objectives.


> Managed Cloud Service

> Disaster Recovery As a Service

> Simplify & Reduce Disaster Recovery costs

Rather than investing in secondary site infrastructure and associated management – move to managed cloud service.


> Disaster Recovery Testing & Readiness

Migrate data and applications to cloud for DR testing and readiness


> Cloud for non-disruptive testing

> Backup and recover to a trusted cloud, your physical or virtual-based systems

 Recover to cloud based virtual servers

 Offer a virtualised platform that can be invoked as you need it, for the time you need it, and with service levels to ensure that you carry out the routine and regular testing that guarantees availability in the event that you need disaster recovery.


 > Reduce Hardware Costs

 > Any Cloud

Don’t get locked into your vendor’s cloud. We let our customers choose their cloud target. Choose to easily replicate your data and applications to any vendors cloud, a private cloud, or popular third-party clouds such as AWS and Azure.



Amazon AWS

> Automate Archive Backups to Amazon AWS S3 or Amazon Glacier

Leverage AWS to replace traditional tape and third party storage processes for Disaster Recovery backup requirements.

> Backup your workloads running entirely on Amazon EC2
