The cloud is starting to prove to be a good medium through which to offer fast and cost-effective business recovery services. What is more, its flexibility means that there are a number of alternative solutions now coming available to suit a wide variety of business budgets and operational requirements.
It also means that existing business continuity service providers can add fast data and service recovery capabilities by simply partnering with a specialist in that field.
This is what business continuity specialist, ADAM Continuity, has done by entered into a partnership with Capital Continuity (CCL) to strengthen the cloud-based services it offers clients.
ADAM now offer the multi-platform Business Interruption Protection Services (BIPs) provided by CCL to help protect its customers from server failure. CCL’s BIPs technology replicates customers’ servers in real-time to Adam’s cloud infrastructure to ensure that critical IT systems are protected from interruption, failure or disaster.
BIPs works regardless of the hardware or applications a business uses, and for any amount of data storage. Should a customer’s servers fail for any reason, the partnership means that Adam Continuity will be able to get systems up and running again in a matter of minutes thanks to CCL’s BIPs technology.
The partnership underpins ADAM’s increasing focus on cloud services and its move away from the traditional “ship to site” model and on to faster and more cost-effective server replication services.
ADAM Continuity, based in Basingstoke, Hampshire, will continue to offer a wide range of round-the-clock business continuity services for customers, allowing them to recover critical systems within minutes if necessary.
“ADAM is dedicated to providing fast, effective recovery services for customers whose critical systems fail or are interrupted for any reason,” said Ronan McCurtin, Managing Director of ADAM Continuity. “This partnership with CCL enables us to strengthen our cloud offering and in most cases we will be able to bring systems back online within a matter of minutes – whatever kind of hardware they are using.”
