In the modern business environment, a combination of regulation, legislation and a realisation that downtime can inconvenience both employees and customers alike has motivated many organisations to investigate how to best implement Business Continuity Systems and an effective disaster recovery plan. |
Organisations can rarely tolerate even a short period of down-time to their critical systems, so solutions that require manually restoring backups or moving to a bespoke disaster recovery site are often considered to be undesirable. Companies in today’s world are looking for a continuity solution that will protect them from all forms of system loss and outages, not just the major events that traditional business continuity plans and disaster recovery arrangements have addressed. |
Capital Continuity’s Business Interruption Protection Services (BIPs) are designed to provide “true” business and critical systems continuity. Servers protected by BIPs are replicated in “real-time”, meaning that the Recovery Point Objective (RPO), or “How much data will we lose due to this failure?” is near-zero, and the Recovery Time Objective, or “How long will the recovery take to be finished?” is just fifteen minutes. Once implemented, BIPs mitigates the effects of those “minor” system outages that may cost an organisation a few hours of downtime (but can have significant impact on productivity and business confidence) alongside the traditional “disaster” scenarios. |
