Business Continuity Planning Services

Ensuring nonstop availability of data & applications

To create a resilient business, many IT organizations are being asked to go beyond disaster recovery. As IT operations become more distributed as they become more critical to a business’s success, many companies are trying to achieve a state of business continuity, where critical networks, systems, data and applications are always available. A comprehensive business continuity solution provides:

• multi-site recovery with continuous protection
• proactive detection of corruption
• real-world application testing capabilities
• fast backup/restore
• automatic failover capability
• policy-based management
• auditing tools

“For many real-time enterprises, a four- to 24-hour site outage would cause irreparable damage to the enterprise, because the risks are greater with real-time enterprises, the business continuity plan must address new scenarios, and BC processes must integrate with a greater number of enterprise processes.."
- Donna Scott, Vice President, Gartner Research
