Data Backup Assessment

Whether protecting data and applications from potential disaster, or simply mitigating the risk of accidental deletion, we must all provide good data backup governance.

At Xerox, we offer a non-intrusive, independent assessment of your data backup solutions and policies to ensure:

  • Compliance
  • Data integrity
  • Simple recovery processes.

Our Data Backup Assessment service provides a clear picture of your backup methodology. We use firm data to:

  • Show the true success rate of backup jobs
  • Identify which datasets are most exposed through failure
  • Provide throughput rates to locate bottlenecks.

More importantly, we:

  • Relate this to your required service levels to back up and recover business data
  • Examine how your current data backup solution enables you to meet these requirements.

Our experienced and accredited consultants provide clear advice and guidance to help you benefit from a greatly improved data backup service. (We might recommend, for example, tuning and performance enhancements or a more efficient architecture that utilises newer technology.)

We can also provide a data backup solution via a managed service. We’ll work to agreed service levels, so you can benefit from 24x7 operations with continual monitoring and management.

Data Backup Assessment is for you if: 

  • You’re not fully confident of a successful outcome if you had to recover system data
  • Too many backup jobs fail to achieve success rates of 70%
  • On-site or off-site tape storage is still a major part of your backup strategy, which can be subject to physical failure
  • You wish to implement disk-to-disk backup, virtual tape libraries and deduplication techniques
  • Jeopardising the integrity of your organisation’s data would have catastrophic consequences
  • Compliance regulations require that your organisation’s data must be readily available in a short timeframe.

Key Benefits 

  • Get a backup health check of your current environment
  • Identify data and application exposure
  • Identify under-utilised resources
  • Gain recommendations for performance enhancement
  • Obtain real-time data backup statistics
