Challenge
A private educational institute sought business continuity planning (BCP) certification by an external auditor. However, achieving this was a significant challenge as its existing daily manual process of using external tape drives for data backup was time-consuming and led to concerns over slow data restoration should system failures occur. Such physical drives were unreliable and inefficient in the long run due to their short storage life and limited capacity. The challenge was also compounded by the institute’s rapid data volume growth. In response, it approached RSM Stone Forest IT (SFIT) for a scalable and more efficient disaster recovery solution.
Solution
After assessing the client’s needs, SFIT formulated a robust business continuity plan and proposed a leading cloud-based disaster recovery solution — Microsoft Azure Site Recovery — that has the following features:
- Regular automated cloud data backup
- Remote IT health monitoring with almost immediate recovery
- Allows creation of a separate non-intrusive environment to develop and test new technologies
- Customisable and scalable recovery plans based on company policies
- Encryption of customer data for secure transmission and storage
