If you are like our other customers, you are probably concerned about the operational headaches of your tape backup system, low confidence in the ability to fully recover your servers' data from those tapes, added workload of your backup processes on current IT staff, maintaining compliance, and effectively securing your backup data!
These and others symptoms are signs that a more nimble, agile and effective backup approach and system is needed by many of our customers.
After close examination of the alternatives in the market, we chose to use and now also offer our customers Iron Mountain's LiveVault hybrid-cloud software solution, based on its technical leadership and long experience and expertise in solving similar problems for organisations around the world.
LiveVault Software allows you to skip the tape and have a more effective and streamlined workflow for the backup and recovery of your server data, while improving your recovery point and time objectives - commonly referred to as RPO and RTO. The solution is next-generation because it is a hybrid-cloud offering where the management platform is in the cloud (hosted by Iron Mountain) and your company's backed up data is on-premises - all within your own control.
This means you don't have to host any database servers, control services or Web servers, just your "data-vaults", and you also get all the benefits of the alerting and monitoring capabilities, which Iron Mountain offers to its cloud backup customers today.
The LiveVault hybrid-cloud solution from DRS will offer you the following:
* Set-it-and-leave-it backups for your Windows, Linux and Solaris servers.
* Secure, 256bit AES encrypted end-to-end backups (with a free encryption key password escrow service from Iron Mountain).
* More guaranteed confidence for recoverability of your data with in-build integrity checking and error correction.
* Automated continuous, nightly or custom-scheduled backups.
* De-duped backups.
* Flexible deployment topologies for efficient off-site DR copies.
* Integrated open-file and database backups.
* Anywhere, anytime management of the entire backup and recovery processes.
* Freedom from routine backup and restore tasks.
All this without the use of a single tape - what a pleasure!
