Company Up and Running Just 2 Hours After Major Fire
Article By: Harald Anderson
You might think that something as major as a building fire could put a serious dent in the productivity of any office, to put it mildly. Destruction of property equipment, furniture and files are almost certain. How much in terms of assets would be lost and for how long? What about the company's mission critical data? Could it ever be replaced? Computers (especially the magnetic disks contained within a modern hard disk drive) are very sensitive to heat and critical data is likely to be irretrievable from a machine that has been melted by the high temperatures of a building fire.
So just how can a headline like the one in this article be plausible? How can a company suffer something as destructive as a major fire and yet be up and running just two short hours after the flames have settled and indeed, when the office is still smoldering and very much non-conducive to work (to say the least)?
Property, furniture and equipment can be easily replaced (that's what insurance is for). Temporary desks and chairs can be leased or rented quickly and easily. New telephone equipment and computer hardware can be purchased. But how do you replace your company's mission critical data?
The answer is simple: Online Data Backup.
By using an online secure backup solution and storing important, mission critical data files in a secure offsite facility, your company can avert disaster and be up and running even before the fire has been put out.
Here's how: When you set up an account with an online backup service provider you or your company will have the ability to back up any amount of critical data on a schedule you set. You can back files up monthly, weekly, daily, or even hourly depending on your needs. You can specify certain subsets of files to be backed up every X amount of days, and other subset to be backed up at completely different intervals, which is not only convenient but efficient as well. By allowing this level of granularity in the backup strategy you can be sure that you will have the most up to date versions of your critical backed up files, and most importantly, have this data available and accessible to you or your IT department on a 24 hour basis. Whether it's Christmas day, or crunch time in Q3, you can be certain you will have access to your files no matter what happens to the machines they were generated on.
Only offsite backup solutions can provide the safety and security necessary to get your company back up and running even in the face of the most menacing disaster.
