  • Reader Feedback on As I See It: ‘He Kindly Stopped for Me’

    May 2, 2011 Victor

    I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your insightful, thought-provoking articles. Today’s article, As I See It: ‘He Kindly Stopped for Me’, is another great one. I am very much like Richard in that I don’t think about death. But I know I need to in order to appreciate life and prioritize. Thanks.

    –Doug

    Thank you for that article. Insightful and meaningful. We all need a reminder for us to evaluate what is important in life. Thank you.

    –Paula

    Thank you for sharing.

    Comprehensive Data Protection from Focal Point SG

    Your organization needs to be thinking differently about your backup & disaster recovery strategy

    Concerns of the Industry

    • Inefficient manual backup processes
    • Effectively storing data offsite
    • Developing and testing a concrete disaster recovery plan
    • Efficient access to data in a disaster scenario for necessary users
    • Risk of cyber security attack
    • Declining IT staff and resources

    The true cause of the above concerns is an organization’s status quo – 80% of IBM i users currently backup to tape and 40% of companies have no DR plan at all. Don’t wait for a disaster to take action.

    The new way to ensure cost-effective safety

    • Automated cloud backup
    • Two (2) remote sites – redundant storage, power, internet pipe, firewalls, etc.
    • Data encryption at all times – in-flight and at-rest
    • Fully managed remote hardware DR, including remote VPN access for necessary users
    • Regularly simulated phishing tests and cyber security training

    Potential “landmines” in solutions to avoid

    • Single point of storage – no redundancy
    • Misleading data analysis, compression/de-dup ratios, sizing of necessary computer resources for backup and DR
    • Large-scale cloud storage with difficult recovery
    • Inability to meet RTO/RPO

    Don’t get caught like the many organizations we’ve seen with inefficient exposed backup data and no DR plan!

    What VAULT400 has to offer

    Backup

    • Native software agent schedules backups to the Focal Point SG cloud based on your retention scheme

    • Documented reports to ensure defined SLAs are met
