A Hybrid Cloud Solution That Eliminates Backup and DR for Multiple Sites

Time to Say Goodbye to Traditional Methods

Backup is a pain point for almost every IT organization. But headaches multiply when you are managing it across multiple locations, users, and applications. Likewise, disaster recovery capabilities are increasingly required for offices and locations across the globe, but traditional methods of DR are expensive, resource intensive and difficult to scale across multiple sites.

How do you know it’s time to say goodbye to traditional methods of backup and DR? Answer yes to any of these questions and your organization is a good candidate for a new approach:

• Your business has been hit by ransomware attacks in more than one area or department
• Your backup windows for multiple data sets are starting to exceed 8 hours
• Doing a full restore for key locations will take longer than the business or clients can tolerate
• Critical offices are vulnerable to natural or manmade disasters and you are not sure how your disaster recovery solution will perform when required
• You need to protect multiple sites at all to the same level
• You need to significantly simplify and reduce costs of data protection

Global File System + Hybrid Cloud Deployment = No More Traditional Backup or Disaster Recovery Challenges

A global file system takes file snapshots every few minutes, or at whatever interval your business requires. Every iteration stored as an immutable WORM file. Hybrid cloud deployment means onsite appliances instantly pass files into the cloud, encrypted, de-duped and compressed, while caching the most frequently accessed files for fast local access. With this architecture every version of every file is instantly and permanently stored in the cloud and restorable within seconds.

Global Operations Demand Reliable Disaster Recovery Solutions

Operating globally today means relying on a network of operations to compete and deliver services. Strategic disaster recovery planning needs to provide recovery services for multiple sites and allow continuous file access for the rest of the organization, even during the disaster event. Likewise, a DR solution should be able to be deployed quickly and simply, with the result that site users can access their data within minutes of the outage occurring.

Modern Infrastructure = Automated Data Protection at a Lower Cost
