Why Data Vaulting

If You Lose All Your Data Today ......Will You Still Be In Business Tomorrow?

Another way of posing this question is asking yourself,  “Will my current risk mitigation or disaster plan work out”?  The US Bureau of Labor reports that 93% of businesses suffering significant loss of data are out of business within 5 years. Don't be a part of this statistic.

IT resources aren't keeping pace with risk mitigation requirements.  There is more data to manage with limited IT resources.  More applications in place, sensitive customer data and regulatory compliance are challenges facing every business as its administrators make important considerations for business continuity planning.

Tape Backup is a Risky Strategy.  "Nearly 50% of tape-based backups fail to restore correctly." - Gartner Group
  • Full vs Incremental Backups
  • Remote Locations
  • Hands-on Process
  • Data not Accessible
  • Prone to Human Error
  • Less Control
  • Remote Locations
  • Tape Stored Offsite
  • Note secure
  • Transport
  • Data Encryption


I can't tell you how many times we've gone to conduct a restore and the tape is either faulty or we had a problem loading it.  That and waiting for off-site delivery of tape is a evil we no longer endure.  Thank you VAULT400!
