Learn to build a world-class Backup and DR solution in our FREE event

On Thursday 12th October, IT experts from SureSkills, IBM and CommVault will discuss how Backup as a Service and Disaster Recovery as a Service can benefit your business.
The traditional IT model is becoming stale – where you own infrastructure, plan for 5 to 7 years in terms of storage, anticipating requirements and reacting when there is a gap. When business changes, backup and DR need to react. But this is a distraction when the production systems are the key to business.
Backup and Disaster Recovery have changed.
We will tell you where you have to be:
-
Delivering minimal data loss for critical systems (Under 15 minutes)
-
Achieving aggressive times on system or data recovery (Under 4 hours)
-
Understanding the cost of down time and data loss
-
Adhering to robust policies on protection and invoking recovery
-
The ability to prove this is real
DRaaS & BaaS can make this a reality:
-
Consumption based model, you pay for what you use when you need it
-
Granular protection aligned to real value of data
-
Scalable on demand for recovery events
-
Focus key internal staff on internal needs
-
React to changing needs rapidly
-
Move to Opex instead of Capex
