Why Is It Necessary To Back Up Your Server?

Backing up your server is an essential task to be performed on a regular basis. As a general rule, its thoroughly important to always back up your data onto your server at all times. Why? The answer, of course, is simple. To protect your information from getting lost. 


Sixty percent of small businesses that lose their data go bankrupt because of that data loss. In order to recreate this data from scratch, taking on such a project would cost anywhere from $2000 to $8000 per megabyte. Why go through the trouble, and take the risks, when the solution is as easy as backing up your server?


With its fast virtualization capabilities, our NAS device at XPERTECHS can be configured to function as a replacement server if needed. This unique device can also replace management intensive, error-prone tape backups while providing much more.. starting with peace of mind. 


Though tape backup is common, it’s far from being an ideal BDR solution. Analysts have said that over half of tape backups fail, so chances are that if you need to restore from tape, you’ll be out of luck.


What happens if my server crashes? 


In the event of a catastrophic server failure, our business continuity solution also includes a boot CD that allows us to perform a bare metal restore on new hardware in a fraction of the time of a typical server rebuild. And, this NAS device restoration will allow you to eliminate the hardware abstraction layer during the restore process so that the new drivers can be loaded on the server replacement, no matter which server brand is used — giving you speedy recovery options in times of crisis.
