Cloud Service Provider Redstor has launched its Virtual Disaster Recovery (DR) service, designed to meet the requirement for copying servers and their data offsite and recovering them quickly in the event of a disaster.
The fully managed service requires little to no customer management. Once configured, an onsite appliance stores system snapshots locally and then securely transfers them to the DR platform in an encrypted format while minimising bandwidth usage.
Redstor's Virtual DR service tests every image nightly to ensure that success is guaranteed. The recovery systems are booted up and agents test and report on a variety of items and any failures or issues are investigated thoroughly.
Chris Sigley, General Manager of Redstor, said: "Professional businesses often can't afford the loss of access to critical business data for even a couple of hours. Redstor's virtual disaster recovery service ensures that when a disaster occurs, a business' systems and data are accessible via the Internet within minutes."
