Abstract
How are you protecting your data from disaster? If you don’t have a backup and disaster recovery platform in place you are missing one of the most crucial parts of managing your business’ data. Think about it, if your organization were to suddenly lose a significant portion of its data, would it be able to continue to function effectively?
Using BDR
If you want data redundancy for your business in the information age, you need to get a BDR. Not only is your data backed up locally, it is also pushed to the cloud. Having data on site is great if you need to quickly restore something, or if your server crashes and you need a substitute server, while cloud backup is great for protecting the data in case of a major disaster that knocks out your onsite hardware.
The BDR is automated to back up data incrementally, meaning that once there is a full backup taken, the BDR only copies changes made since the last backup. This allows you to run backups frequently (as frequently as every 15 minutes). Additionally, if you need to restore from your BDR, NetMGM can do a bare-metal restore, ensuring that you get all the data you need.
94 percent of businesses that fall victim to a large data loss event fail within the next 24 months. Don’t be that business. Get a BDR and protect your business’ most important asset. If you have more questions about BDR, reach out to the IT professionals at NetMGM today at 888-748-2525.
