We understand that data is the lifeblood of most companies today and organizations increasingly require 100% uptime, where data is constantly online and accessible. We have therefore implemented solid solutions that allows you to protect your data in the unfortunate event of software malfunction, system failure, events of loss of data due to hacking or viruses etc.

We use cutting-edge RAID Hardware to protect all data on the server against hard disk failures. This technology works by creating a mirror of all data on more than one hard disk automatically, without any delay i.e. all data is written to multiple hard disks simultanously so that if any hard disk fails, that hard disk will be marked as deactivated and the system will still continue to function as though nothing has happened by using the copy of the data on the other hard disk(s). The best part is that you do not require to make any changes or special code modifications in your website/web application for this technology to function.

RAID systems offer a significant advantage over non-RAID systems, both in terms of data protection and ability to maintain 100% uptime, as the system continues to function perfectly in case of disk failures. RAID technology also marginally improves the performance of the various services on the server.

As soon as a hard disk fails, notification alerts are sent out, so that the failed hard disk can be replaced by the system administrators. As such, the system continues to perform normally despite disk failures, using the mirror of the data on the additional hard disk(s).

Important data exists across various locations on a server. Our subject-matter experts have conducted comprehensive research and have prepared complex backup scripts that automatically maintain copies of all important files and folders, in a secure manner, on a regular pre-defined interval, such that we can restore a server in the shortest possible time, in the event of a total failure.
