Why Managed Hosting?
In an age where your IT capabilities can provide a significant competitive edge, the ability to quickly respond to shifting business priorities can make the difference between a hugely successful year or one where everyone is running for cover. Companies are reevaluating the need for “internal” data centers and the perceived calm they bring.
For most companies designing, building, and running IT environment is not part of their core competencies; it is something they have created out of necessity. Many companies are desiring to return to what they do best; be it healthcare, manufacturing, retail, or the like. The focus is on retaining good people who know how to build and maintain applications; not on the nuts and bolts of running a high availability enterprise data center.
DBSi are experts in the design and execution of data center solutions and infrastructure. This goes beyond fire suppression and UPS’s, we can architect solutions that allow for dynamic increases in processing power, storage, or network capacity based on business activity — even spikes caused by market surges generated by unexpected demand for a new product you are taking to market. We can dynamically shift workloads to make better use of your IT resources and scan worldwide networks to ensure your systems are taking the most efficient paths, and are secure. We are the company that showed its clients how to re-purpose disaster recovery resources to benefit the bottom line without putting at risk their ability to recover. DBSi is the company of data center innovation — we are the experts whose core competency is the data center and associated systems to ensure high availability.
Advanced Workspace Recovery Facilities
One of our clients, a large investment firm, is located near a major river that hadn’t flooded in 75 years. All that changed a few years ago when unusually strong spring storms caused the river to crest.The city shut down the entire street in advance of the coming disaster.
Everyone in the company was expecting the disruption to be difficult, and their temporary workspace to be the uncomfortable, exposed, loud and non-private typical with other workspace recovery providers.
Fortunately, all of their data and email was hosted at DBSi. We quickly replicated their environment and for five days, the entire staff of 35 relocated to one of DBSi’s spacious, secure, private and well-appointed workspace continuity suites. Business as usual.
