Backup Strategy

Effective back-ups are pivotal to a reliable disaster recovery plan. Which is why you need to be assured that your strategy is both current and efficient. Only then can you be truly confident of your recovery times and service levels.

Life’s back-up strategy service is designed to put you in control of the entire process across all potential situations. It’s ideal for companies who have introduced new systems or have doubts about their existing procedures. Life’s Back-up Strategy Service starts with a thorough on-site investigation to establish a clear understanding of your specific situation. Within this, we examine:

	Back-up frequency		Existing back-up tools and software
	Recovery times		Time to maintain data off-line
	Archive policies		Business demands and the best time to
	Legacy media types		complete back-ups

Our consultants then document a clear back-up strategy, identify recovery times and, where necessary, recommend and implement any back-up tools required. In short, we not only recommend an approach but also put everything in place to implement a complete solution.

In summary the service includes:

	a documented strategy detailing how, when and why back-ups are taken
	a user guide to daily back-up procedures
	the installation, configuration and testing of back-up software as required
