Explore solutionData Backup & Replication
Make data recovery part of your operating plan with backups, replication and recovery tests based on the systems your business needs.
Plan for recovery as well as backup
A completed backup is useful only if you can recover the data or system you need. We provide backup and replication services, covering strategy, implementation, monitoring and recovery testing.
We start with your critical workloads, acceptable data loss and the time available to restore operations. We assess on-premises, cloud and hybrid approaches alongside retention, storage capacity and recovery responsibilities, then agree recovery objectives and test the selected solution.
- Backup scope based on business-critical data and systems
- Recovery expectations documented before an incident
- Recovery tests that check whether backups can be used

Your Questions, Answered
Practical considerations for planning this service.
Discuss your requirementsWhat is the difference between backup and replication?
Backups retain copies that can be used to restore data or systems. Replication maintains a separate copy of a workload or data set. Their purposes overlap, but retention, recovery methods and failure scenarios need to be planned separately.
Can a backup solution use both local and cloud storage?
Yes. We implement on-premises, cloud and hybrid backup arrangements. We review your connectivity, storage capacity, retention and recovery requirements to select a suitable approach.
Why include recovery testing in the scope?
A recovery test checks whether a selected backup can be restored in the intended environment. It also helps identify missing access, dependencies or documentation before the organisation needs to recover a live system.
