Disaster Recovery
The midst of a disaster is hardly the ideal time to start wondering if your business-critical data is secure and accessible. Effective business continuity planning means preparing for the worst with ample rehearsal time and on site guidance. DBSi offers a full suite of disaster recovery and business continuity services ranging from quick ship and standby operating systems to real-time data replication and continuous availability.
| Dynamic Managed Recovery Pays Dividends |
| A $1+ billion financial services firm–wanted to take every precaution in keeping their customers’ data safe and available. They knew they were investment experts–not information technology specialists. They outlined their specific needs and budgets for disaster recovery to DBSi, and together we came up with an easy-to-understand Dynamic Managed Recovery service level agreement that gave them all the assurance they–and their customers–needed. |
| When their building was shut down due to a nearby flood, the company’s first phone call was to DBSi and the plan kicked into action. We managed the tape delivery, restored their data, provided the requisite bandwidth capacity and recovered their entire environment from the operating system on up within four hours. |
| When they arrived at our facility, they settled into their business continuity office suites and got right to work. Managed recovery saved this DBSi client hundreds of thousands of dollars through the reduction in outage time. |
With our flexible solutions and client-focused business continuity service agreements, DBSi will help you:
- Reduce overall recovery time and costs
- Ensure a higher degree of success in testing and recovery
- Minimize out-of-office time for your staff
We host and manage a multitude of servers, databases and tape media devices. We also provide server and storage redundancy and failover offerings between our facilities along with a wide array of network offerings architected by our in-house specialists.
DBSi also offers well equipped and comfortable workspace recovery suites, enabling your key employees to continue the company’s critical operations.
Beyond Traditional DR
System and data recovery is a complex process. A myriad of problems can occur, from corrupt backup tapes to invalid network configs to back-dated patch levels. A failure during recovery can cost you tens of thousands to millions of dollars per hour and potentially bring unwanted attention from government and industry regulators, or your competitors.
That’s why we offer Dynamic Managed Recovery yet another layer of disaster assurance most providers are not willing to offer. With Dynamic Managed Recovery, DBSi takes care of recovering your data and getting you back up and running after a disaster, so you can focus on the other critical part of your business, your people and ensuring they are doing what needs to do be done to get your business running again.

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.
