Cloud & DevOps / Backup & Disaster Recovery
Backup schedules and disaster recovery plans for your infrastructure and data, with defined recovery time and point objectives and periodic restore testing to prove they work.
Why It Matters
Not every system needs the same recovery target. We set RTO and RPO per system based on what it actually costs the business to be down or lose recent data.
Backups are restored on a set schedule, in a controlled environment, so you know the recovery process works before you ever need it during a real incident.
We review what is backed up today, how often, and what would actually happen in an outage.
Recovery targets are set per system, based on what downtime or data loss would cost.
Backup jobs and retention are configured to meet the objectives you set.
Steps, owners and expected timelines are documented for each system.
Restore tests run on a recurring cadence, with findings fixed and re-verified.
Backup jobs configured per system, matched to its recovery objectives.
Recovery time and point objectives set per system, not a single default.
Restores run on a schedule, so recovery is proven before it is ever needed.
Written steps and owners for each system, not tribal knowledge.
Retention and immutability settings cover accidental deletion and ransomware, not only hardware failure.
Set up against your existing infrastructure, and can cover ERP or CRM data where relevant.
A backup job that has never been restored is not a plan. We build testing into the schedule from day one.
Not every system gets the same treatment. RTO and RPO are matched to real business impact.
A failed restore test is treated as a real finding, with a fix and a re-test before we call it done.
Recovery steps are documented clearly enough for someone other than us to follow under pressure.
Retention and immutability are set to cover more than hardware failure alone.
A backup is a copy of your data. A disaster recovery plan is the documented, tested process for actually getting systems back online using that copy, including who does what and how long it should take.
Recovery Time Objective is how long a system can be down before it causes serious harm, and Recovery Point Objective is how much data loss, measured in time, is acceptable. We set both with you per system, since not everything needs the same target.
We schedule periodic restore tests as part of the plan, not just the backup job itself. A backup that has never been restored is unverified, and that is where most disaster recovery plans quietly fail.
A failed restore test is treated as a finding, not a footnote. We document the cause, fix the underlying issue, and re-run the test before considering that system's recovery plan verified.
Yes. Backup retention and immutability settings are chosen to cover accidental deletion and ransomware scenarios, not only outright infrastructure failure.
A first system typically has backups, schedules and an initial restore test completed within two to three weeks, with additional systems phased in after that based on priority.
