How to Decide What Data to Back up
Mar 13th
Deciding what data to back up can be a delicate balancing act for backup administrators. You probably have a limited backup capacity and a limited backup window during which to complete your data backups. At the same time, you have to back up enough data to meet your company’s recovery needs. Fortunately, there are some relatively easy things you can do to set a data backup policy. Here’s a list of considerations to help you decide what data you need to back up.
Data or system state backup?
One of the first considerations you need to make when figuring out what to back up is whether you need bare-metal recovery capabilities or if simply recovering data is sufficient. If you only need to back up data, this saves time and space. However, backing up only the data could prolong your recovery efforts because you may end up in a situation that requires you to manually reinstall your operating system and applications. More >
Do You Have an Exit Strategy in Place?
Mar 8th
What is Your Exit Strategy?
Best practices have shown that we should have an exit strategy in place in case of certain situations occurring that are beyond our control. For example, a business partner called in financial distress last month due to a marital problem in his personal life, which adversely affected his business and before he knew it he was in a crisis situation. If he had the foresight to create an exit strategy before he needed one in his personal life, he could have prevented the situation from escalating and impacting his business.
So, I ask you to think about what is you exit strategy in case of a fire, flood or natural disaster? Do you have an exit strategy in place to cope with this situation and its potential affect on your business? Perhaps you should start thinking about one, if you don’t.
What if your server crashes this afternoon or a virus wipes out all of your data do you have an exit strategy in place to address the unexpected when it comes to an IT failure? You may want to start thinking about it.
The key here is to plan ahead for the unexpected. Have an exit strategy because the more prepared you can be for these situations the less likely it will be that the impact will be severe and disrupt your business for any length of time.
Last but not least, remember to have an exit strategy in place to protect your mission critical data, whether it is customer records, emails or confidential business documents. To have your data available is priceless!
