Managed Data Services
Many companies have performed their own data backups and are frustrated or unsure about their disaster recovery capabilities. Some companies are confident in their data backups, but shouldn’t be. Other companies have implemented best practices and solutions and are doing everything well, but need to reduce expenses and control the rate of data growth.
All those companies — and others — are good candidates for Apex’s Managed Data Services! We use a variety of solutions to provide your company with the lowest cost data services that meet business requirements. We use multiple best of breed solutions to provide on-site storage, off-site storage, data replication, mirroring, Internet and Cloud Data Vaults.
Many companies have focused on backing up their data and the costs associated with the backups. Unfortunately, that’s not the important part.
The most important component of any Managed Data Service is data recovery and restoral. Why?
Because the only reason to backup and store data is to have it available in the event of an emergency or disaster. As simple as it sounds, most busi- nesses perform backups and storage, but don’t focus on data recovery and restoral. This could be a major gap in your company’s continuity plan.
Once all areas have been considered, Apex will work with your company to create the appropriate solution to ensure your data is properly equipped with efficient backup, retention and recovery processes. No matter which managed data service best suits your company, Apex handles data backups, on and off-site storage, encryption, multiple data locations, immediate access to data, full or partial data recovery, and restoral services.
Successful strategies for data storage and recovery should include:
- Potential disaster and emergencies for systems and data
- Vulnerability and recovery options for each scenario
- Restoral requirements for business units and applications
- State and federal regulatory requirements • Cost of data recovery for various restoral options and disaster scenarios
