High Availability Prevents Business Losses from Hurricanes
HOBOKEN, N.J. (PRWEB) June 07, 2018 -- A NYC area IT consultant and MSP discusses how high-availability technology keeps websites and business applications up and running even during a hurricane or other disasters in a new article from eMazzanti Technologies.
The informative article discusses how high availability goes beyond disaster recovery and asks business leaders how long they can afford to have their website down and business applications unavailable. Readers are urged to avoid costly down time by implementing a high-availability solution.
“Standard disaster recovery solutions may take hours or days to get you up and running,” stated Jennifer Mazzanti, CEO, eMazzanti Technologies. “High availability technology protects your business from lost revenue by keeping your website and applications accessible even during a major regional disaster like a hurricane.”
Below are a few excerpts from the article, “High Availability Prevents Business Losses from Hurricanes”
High Availability vs. Disaster Recovery
“Chances are your business has developed a critical online presence. Customers expect 24/7 access to ecommerce and crucial data. Remote access employees depend on the ability to log in to complete essential work and meet deadlines. In many cases, even just a few hours of downtime can result in lost sales and a damaged business reputation.”
“It is imperative that you develop a sound disaster recovery plan to restore critical systems in the event of disaster. However, sometimes disaster recovery falls short. Certain business critical operations tolerate a downtime of only seconds, rather than hours or even days.”
Automatic Failover for Business Continuity
“Automatic failover is a key component of business continuity for businesses with an online presence (just about every business these days). With automatic failover, critical data and processes are continuously replicated to a standby server, ideally located in another region of the country. If the system detects an interruption in service, operations automatically “fail over” to the secondary system with little or no delay.”
“Fortunately, competent cloud services providers offer technology to simplify the process. An offsite replication and automatic failover solution based on Microsoft’s Azure Site Recovery, for example, provides a cost-effective and flexible option. A reputable managed services provider with a strong business continuity practice can guide you through implementing a cloud failover solution specifically designed to meet your high availability needs.”
Don’t Let a Hurricane Blow Business Away
With careful planning, natural disasters should not prove disastrous for a business, particularly in today’s cloud-based environment. A high availability strategy ensures that employees and customers can access critical systems with little or no interruption, even in a Category 5 hurricane.
