WAR Best Practices

Seek a location which is some distance away from the office

Seek a location with ample transportation choices

Ensure fast access to alternate site

Seek a location with high security standards Ensure safety of personnel at all times


EABRC IT RECOVERY

Three ways customers can back up critical data:

1. Backing up from on-premise (own office or data centre) to Acclivis’

infrastructure in Equinix’s data centre

2. Backing up from Public Cloud to Acclivis’ infrastructure in Equinix’s data

centre and vice-versa

3. Backing up from primary data centre to secondary data centre, both in

Equinix’s separate data centres.

• Mission-critical with no time for migration

• Inflexible for re-architecture

• Purpose built for virtualization

• Application un-aware

• Hypervisor locked

• Built on an as-a-service model

• Require easy migration across clouds
