Disaster – Would your business recover?

Posted on by

Would your business recover fully in the event of a system or environmental failure? What impact would this have on your services and ultimately your customers?

Most companies of course have recovery plans, but are they fully tested? Are they fast enough? Do they limit the impact to employees and customers? Do they utilise modern cost effect technologies? We see many companies with dated recovery plans, plans that fall short of providing the correct level of recovery..

itonus are able to analyse your current plans and review your Recovery Time Objective (RTO) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPO).  If necessary, itonus can provide new cost effective solutions that meet your business needs and give you the reassurance you need.

VMware vSphere 5.1 Replication VRMS (VRS)

itonus believes with ‘Disaster Recovery’ environments that do not require the cost of storage area network (SAN) level replication, ‘VMware Replication’ is a real option. Where the cost of SAN replication for the use of ‘VMware Site Recovery Manager’ (SRM) or simply replication for disaster recovery situations, the ideal solution is the use of VRMS (VRS). The ‘VMware Replication Management Server’ and ‘VMware Replication Server’ are deployed on both production and the disaster recovery sites. ‘vSphere Replication’ VRMS (VRS) are included within all editions of vSphere 5 allowing for extremely cost effective datastore replication and DR. This method of ‘Disaster Recovery’ allows for very quick recovery point objectives RPO’s and recovery time objectives RTO’s. Contact us for more information.
