Backup & Archive
Dynamic Strategies can help you simplify a mundane but critical operation, backing up your data. Our specialists can help you create a backup strategy for your applications, data and configurations.
Our services include:- Tape Backup – Configuration and monitoring of the data backup service which will include the notification of faults and failures.
- Disk Based Backup – Often the time allotted to a backup is limited and too small for a complete backup to tape. In these cases we use disk based backup systems where the data is quickly moved to a secondary location then backed up onto tape.
- Tapeless Backup – DSI securely creates multiple copies of your critical data and moves it off site without tapes. All data is copied locally and delivered to an off-site data storage facility via a secured internet connection.
- Off Site Archiving – DSI provides management and operational support of moving the backup tapes to a secured off-site facility.
The DSI Difference
We provide different levels of service – from monitoring of daily jobs to the completely automated backup and archive processing. In addition to backup we ensure the availability and verification of the restoration process.Examples
- A small customer with a mobile staff has difficulty getting their tapes rotated in a timely fashion. DSI engineered a disk-based solution to ensure that data was being backed up regularly and again moved to tape as the customer restraints allowed.
- A mid-sized business with mission-critical databases has a small time window for backup, but required backup and off-site storage. DSI proposed a tapeless solution which would complete the initial backup within the time constraint then replicate data to an off-site storage facility via a dedicated high bandwidth connection. The customer was provided with a fast, reliable and secure mechanism to create multiple backups on a daily basis.
