Businesses rely on information, making data loss a primary concern in disaster recovery and business continuity planning and operation. Backup infrastructure is a key component in the plan.

Not too long ago backups were run daily, typically at night to protect against disasters. The backup process started at the end of the day and was completed by morning. In today’s world, vast amounts of data is created at increasing rates. This has caused the number of backups per day to also increase. Now organisations may need to run a backup as often as every 15 minutes based on their data protection policies, and seven days a week to ensure application continuity and availability. The demands on backup servers has increased to where they have become a mission-critical component to a business. This has several implications:

  • A backup server can’t go down. Lost data, time and opportunity can put the entire business at risk.
  • Maintaining and upgrading the backup server running 24/7/365 is a significant challenge.
