How fast can my business recover after a catastrophe?
If a disaster results in your company losing an entire office — servers and on-site backup included— we ship out a server with your most current backup via next business-day air transportation to a location of your choice. Depending on the PCA Remote Vault Pro Enterprise configuration chosen, multiple servers can be virtualized on one PCA Remote Vault Pro Enterprise device even as we continue to perform backups of other servers.
When the device arrives, all you need to do is plug in a patch cable and you’re up and running. This recovery service will allow you to use PCA Remote Vault Pro Enterprise device for two weeks before it must be returned or purchased. This timeframe should allow you to get a new server ordered, in place and do a bare-metal restore from the temporary device.
For additional protection in the event of a complete disaster, data is securely transferred to an off-site co-location facility on a daily basis. Then, in event of such an occurrence, you will receive a new device imaged with your latest data. The storage facilities are two XO high-availability data centers in Phoenix and Baltimore. They provide:
- Backup images stored at the data centers on a Storage Area Network (SAN) at the primary facility, then replicated to the secondary facility
- Connectivity provided by multiple providers with automatic failover capabilities
- Facilities provide two fiber optic network drops for our backbone
- Full physical security at each facility including security cameras and key card access
- Network is secured with high-end redundant, automatic failover firewalls
- Fire suppression and environmental control provided
- Automatic back-up power provided with on-site generators
