Backup & Disaster Recovery

Get UPS Battery Backups

An Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is a device that provides emergency power to your computer when the main power source fails. Here's how a typical UPS works:

Normal Operation: The UPS is connected to the main power, and it continuously charges its internal battery while supplying power to the connected devices.

Battery Power: The UPS uses the stored energy in its batteries to provide power to the connected devices during the outage or voltage fluctuation.

In a disaster recovery scenario, maintaining communication and connectivity is crucial. UPS units keep networking equipment, including routers and switches, powered during outages. This helps in ensuring that communication channels remain open, allowing for data transfer and coordination among different parts of the organization.

Organize Your Environment

Does your server closet look like the one on the left? We want it to look like the one on the right.

Creating an asset inventory helps in identifying and documenting all critical hardware, software, and data assets within an organization. Knowing what assets are in use and their importance allows for prioritized planning in the event of a disaster.

Having an accurate asset inventory and a clean environment also makes disaster recovery faster for your IT partner. 

After all, if it isn't clear what was damaged or lost in an incident, how do you know what needs to be recovered?

Knowing the lifecycle of your assets, including their acquisition, deployment, and projected end-of-life, will also help with long-term planning and infrastructure budgeting.

Get Working Offsite Backups

'Offsite backups' means storing copies of critical data and information at a location separate from the primary business premises.

This used to be done with USB drives, CDs, and tape backups. Today, the modern way of backing up your data is using the cloud.

This means your data is transmitted over the internet to a data center in another part of the country or world. In the event that you experience a localized disaster, your data can be recovered from your cloud backups.

But backing up your data includes more than just your server. Many business owners overlook how important their email is, and don't know that email isn't backed up automatically.

We can easily backup your Google email or Outlook inbox. We can also backup your workstations (important if you are saving to your desktop).
