Business Continuity

The Customer Challenge

• To provide a real time secure off site data storage, backup and retrieval platform locally, so that in the event of a business disruption at the HQ site, all data is stored and easily accessible
• To meet the recovery and continuity contract clauses imposed by customers for new business
• To enable management of the ERP application from a second site within 1 hour of a disruptive event at HQ

Implemented Solution

A single Gigabit connection is implemented between the HQ and the second manufacturing site. This provides a Local Area Network extension for the organisation.

The Gigabit connection supports the real time backup of the organisation ERP and CRM databases to a second site.

How It Works
