Direct IT Data Integrity Solutions

In today's business world, the reliance on IT resources for business critical services places an emphasis on data integrity. Whether it is an on-line ERP application, e-mail services, a customer database, or any other network data, it is critical to have a backup plan. A complete Data Integrity solution should include some of these key elements;

Network Backup

All network resources should be backed up on a scheduled and consistent basis. Backups can utilize tape, hard drives, remote services, or any combination of the three. A complete backup solution will include periodic testing of the backed up data to ensure that recovery is possible prior to it being necessary.

Direct IT has partnered with Veritas to provide the most complete network backup solutions in the industry.

High Availability

If a server requires 24x7 availability, a high availability solution may be in order. In a high availability solution, secondary or stand-by servers are configured to jump in and keep services running in the event of a critical server failure.

DirecT IT has partnered with Legato to provide an excellent suite of applications and services to provide maximum availability to critical network services.

System Snapshots

Should a critical server operating system or database become compromised, backing up from tape can be a lengthy process that can suffer from critical data loss. Taking "Snapshots" of server configurations and database files at multiple points during the day allows network administrators to choose a roll-back point in the event of a server malfunction. Not only does this type of restoration require less time than recovering from tape, but a snapshot from two o'clock in the afternoon may contain critical data that can't be recovered from an overnight tape backup.
Direct IT has partnered with Altiris to provide advanced server availability and recovery.
