How important is your data to your
organization?
How important is it to have the freedom to easily
replicate data box-to-box, box-to-cloud or both?
Outside
of the people in your organization, the data you store, especially the client
data, is the most important asset you have.
Most
of us take the data we store for granted. We create it, save it, and back it up.
Usually, we don't even think twice about it. "Out of sight, out of mind", as
they say.
But
then, something drastic happens and we have to recover that data. It is then
that we realize how important that a current successful backup up and speedy
restore really is to getting back to business as usual and the survival of our
organization.
How
important is your data and making sure you have a current backup that is easy to
restore from quickly? Check out these three pieces of statistics . .
.
- 94% of companies suffering from a catastrophic data loss do not survive - 43% never reopen and 51% close within two years (University of Texas) - Could your company survive a catastrophic or even a semi-catastrophic data loss?
- 93% of companies that lost their data center for 10 days or more due to a disaster,
filed for bankruptcy within one year of the disaster. 50% of the businesses that
found themselves without data management for this same time period filed for
bankruptcy immediately. (National Archives & Records Administration in
Washington)
-
Is the backup solution you use easy to backup to, easy to manage and easy to restore from quickly? How quickly could you be up and running if your data was destroyed or compromised by malware?
- 7
out of 10
small firms that experience
a major data
loss go out of business within a year. (DTI/Price Waterhouse Coopers)
-
What kind of plan do you have in place to make sure this doesn't happen to your organization?
Success
in anything requires
a plan of action that is put into action.
Successfully surviving a data loss disaster is the same. It must be planned for
and that plan of action must be put into action.
For
example: In the unfortunate event that your office or your data experiences a
disaster, whether natural or man-made, do you have at least a rudimentary plan
for data recovery in place? Is there a backup plan in place that includes
offsite storage? What steps would be necessary to recover the lost data? Are you
able to access that data and continue doing business, even if the office and its
computers are destroyed?
 Most of these questions can
be answered
even in a rudimentary level of disaster backup and recovery
planning. Data disaster is not fun to think about but definitely something that
we must seriously consider and plan for.
One of the most important
action steps
that we can take is to make sure that we have a documented
plan of action in place to prepare our organization, especially our IT staff,
for what needs to be done to get the organization through such an experience so
no one is having to remember what needs to be done next off the top of their
heads. Especially in a stressful situation.
We also want to make sure that there
is an effective backup solution in place that easily provides the freedom
to replicate data box-to-box, box-to-cloud or both as well as being easy to
manage, backup to, and restore data from.
