A comprehensive data protection plan should minimize or completely eliminate business interruption due to data loss. A good plan facilitates fast and efficient recovery from several common data failures:
- Natural disasters and terrorism
- Hardware problems such as disk and file system failures.
- Application errors leading to data corruption
- Accidental deletions
- Data compromised by viruses
Working with our premiere data protection strategic partners like Symantec, Dell, Quest and TwinStrata, BNMC can recommend and implement a host of tools and professional services aimed at achieving your stated data protection goals and objectives. BNMC designs and implements high-end data storage, backup and replication solutions to meet the business required protection level.
BNMC Professional Data Protection Services offer these benefits:
- Dedicated Project and Engineering team
- Savings of time and money over a self-implementation
- Fixed price quote for a fixed scope of work
- 45-days of post project support
- Customized technical documentation of backup and disaster recovery procedures.
- Review of current backup and disaster recovery documents and procedures.
Backup Design and Implementation: Our deployments focus on several business requirements of backup design:
- Tape and Media Rotation and Management.
- Backup Hardware design and integration. From the standalone tape-drive to the high performance tape library, we can help you implement the correct solution.
- Best practices for backup and restore strategies using two stage backup with Backup-To-Disk functionality.
- Storage Area Network (SAN) based solutions (Shared Storage) such as EqualLogic SAN or DataCore SANsymphony
- Network Attached Storage (NAS) based backups.
- Workstation Backups to decrease overall total cost of ownership.
Software Backup Solutions: BNMC recommends Symantec BackupExec for general O/S, Exchange, SQL, SharePoint and Active Directory backup and Quest vRangerPro for Image based VMware backup and recovery. Click here to review each solution.
Cloud Backup Strategy: By leveraging the power of CloudArray®, TwinStrata’s breakthrough data protection and cloud storage SAN solution, BNMC offers enterprise-class data protection and disaster recovery using our Hosted Solutions private storage clouds. CloudArray delivers cost-effective and seamlessly managed storage services optimized for performance, multi-site availability and elastic storage capacity at a substantial cost-savings over traditional storage solutions.
Disaster Recovery Consulting, Design and Implementation: Using disaster recovery tools from the top storage and backup management companies, BNMC will simplify the process of disaster recovery by leveraging the following technologies:
- Automated System Restores. Customized recovery boot cd-rom(s) that contain core operating system, hardware drivers, and base data for core servers. These technologies eliminate the need to manually reinstall the operating system or configure hardware. This saves significant amount of time in restoring mission critical servers.
- Well written disaster recovery procedures.
Data Migration Software/Hierarchical Storage Management (HSM) provides for the migration of less critical data based on age or function. Less frequently accessed data can be migrated between storage devices without user knowledge or interruption in data access HSM technology can significantly improve backup windows and recovery time objectives since less data is present in the primary medium.
With BNMC, you're getting a dedicated engineering team experienced with complex mission-critical time-critical implementations. Upon project completion, you will be presented with a custom document detailing backup and disaster recovery procedures. This document starts with a review of all new implement, upgrades, and issues resolved during the course of the project. Other sections include the document of daily procedures required of the backup operator(s) and the steps required for data recovery.
