Business Continuity is critical for any organization, as it ensures that essential business functions can continue during and after a material and unplanned IT production environment disruption.

One of the key components in Business Continuity planning is Backup-as-a-Service, which provides a secure and reliable way to backup and restore data in the event of a disaster.

Leveraging the Right Technology and A Trusted Managed Service Partner

To ensure that an organization is fully protected, it is essential to balance the leverage of the right technology and the best available managed service. This includes:

Cloud-based Backup-as-a-Service, which provides a secure and reliable way to backup and restore critical data, without having to manage hardware or software requiring up-to-date maintenance and support contracts.

Automated Backup and Recovery processes, which ensures that critical data is backed up based upon defined policies and can be restored quickly in the event of a disaster.

Identifying and Hiring the Right Managed Services Partner

To ensure that an organization is fully protected, it is equally essential to identify and hire the right managed services partner. This includes:

Specifying the need for a certified approach to Backup-as-a-Service, which ensures that critical data is backed up and restored in accordance with both prevailing compliance requirements and industry standards and regulations.

Safeguarding 24/7/365 Monitoring, Alerting and Support, which ensures that critical data is always protected and that any issues are detected, logged, and resolved quickly.

Challenge the Conventional Wisdom – The Organization May Depend on It

“We already have a backup solution in place.”

While having a backup solution in place is a good start, it is important to ensure that the backup solution is reliable and can be restored quickly in the event of a disaster. Cloud-based Backup-as-a-Service provides a secure and reliable way to backup and restore data, without the need for expensive hardware or software.

“We don’t have the budget for Backup-as-a-Service.”

While Backup-as-a-Service may seem like an additional expense, it can provide significant cost savings compared to traditional backup and recovery solutions. Additionally, the cost of not having a reliable backup solution in place can be much higher in the event of a disaster.

“We don’t have the resources to manage Backup-as-a-Service.”

Hiring the right managed services partner should eliminate that concern while providing 24/7 monitoring, alerting and support and ensuring that critical data is always protected and that any incidents are resolved quickly. Additionally, a certified approach to Backup-as-a-Service ensures that critical data is backed up and restored in compliance with industry standards and regulations.
