Disaster Recovery for Servers

What is a Disaster

When most people hear the term disaster they immediately think of natural disasters, but the most common disasters threatening small and medium-sized business are catastrophic server failure, fire, and theft. Consider that Gartner Group projects that fewer than 35% of small and medium sized businesses have adequate disaster recovery mechanisms in place to recover from even a minimal disaster.

Don't risk your business or your livelihood

Whether you're an owner, executive or employee, your personal success, and livelihood of your family depend on your company. The loss of data or unavailability of computer systems can lead to more than lost customers and wasted salaries. In a recent report by the US National Archives & Records Administration, 93% of companies in the US who lost their data for 10 days or more filed for bankruptcy within a year of the disaster. Even more staggering is a report issued by Richmond House Group in which 20% of the small-medium businesses they surveyed suffered a major disaster resulting in the loss of critical data within the last 5 years.

Protect it

Year over year, your organization increasingly depends on systems and the information contained within them to in order to conduct business. An extended period of downtime, or lost data can be detrimental to your business, both financially and to your reputation in the eyes of your investors, customers and even your employees.

You need a reliable solution that can help you quickly recover from disasters, large or small, and get back to business quickly.

Disaster Recovery for Servers from NewGen is a flexible, on-demand server recovery solution that is designed to recover your server(s) completely & quickly, exceeding most organizations Recovery Time Objectives (RTOs).

How it works

Disaster Recovery for Servers from NewGen uses live snapshot technology to take exact replicas of your server every 15 minutes. This allows for full recovery from a disaster to a point within the last 15 minutes prior to the disaster, resulting in less lost data than backup solutions that perform backups on a daily basis. And because the solution uses snapshot technology, the entire system is backed up, not just files. This shortens recovery time from days to minutes. The solution further simplifies recovery by allowing for easy restoration to any server hardware, physical or virtual.

LiveBoot technology, an optional feature, allows for near instant recovery of failed servers by allowing our Network Operations team to boot directly from the most recent snapshot in a matter of minutes.

With all LiveBoot plans, we include a scheduled monthly test recovery performed by our Network Operations team. This provides manual, human verification of your recovery snapshots instead of relying on the software verification process. This helps greatly in ensuring the viability of your snapshots.

Cloud-enabled plans, also optional, provide highly secure, off-site replication of your server's snapshots using the virtually impenetrable CloudRAID technology, which encrypts and distributes your data to 96 distributed systems.

Cloud plans also include replication to NewGen's offices for rapid recovery to a temporary/loaner or new server. This can significantly speed up the recovery time and reduce downtime.
