Have a plan so you’re covered when disaster strikes
Disaster recovery (DR) is a holistic strategy including people, processes, policies, and technologies. It focuses on restoring the IT systems critical to supporting business functions. If you don’t have a DR strategy yet, we can help you create your own plan for the systems you host on Rackspace infrastructure. Our disaster recovery specialists can review your environment and propose a mix of resiliency tools that can help you achieve your recovery targets—all within your budget.
How we can help
Whether you need help backing up important databases or architecting a complex replication solution across Rackspace data centers, we have the expertise, technologies, and services that your plan needs. See how a solution might look by viewing a reference architecture.
The best way to avoid downtime is to eliminate single points of failure in your configurations. As you add redundancy, your ability to recover quickly improves—and your costs increase. We understand that DR is expensive, so we can offer you an experienced team that can help you choose the right resiliency solutions based on your risk tolerance, and ensure they’re optimized to meet your recovery objectives and budget.
