IT Infrastructure Case Study 3
Disaster Recovery Design and Implementation
Client:
A leading automobile dealership in the Middle East.
Problem statement:
The client wished to have an effective disaster recovery system implemented to ensure availability of IT services to the business 24 * 7. He also wanted to have real time data replication at an offisite location so that there is zero loss of data in the event of a disaster. The client had multiple services each running on varied platforms including windows and solaris.
Application / Solution:
Elite Technologies Middle East designed an appropriate system ensuring all critical IT services including their ERP would function on hot standby mode. This would ensure that in the event of a disaster in the main IT, business users will be able to use all applications without loss of any transactions/data. The system was implemented and tested to ensure that the system behaved as envisaged. This system was also certified by external auditors.
Benefits:
- Instant restoration of IT services.
- No data loss.
- Data rewind for continuous data protection
- Automated, non-disruptive recovery testing with VSS Snapshot management for application-consistent backups
- Real-time server and application monitoring, with automated and pushbutton failover and pushbutton failback.
- Unified Web-based management and reporting console with optional redundancy and failover to speed and ease deployment and maintenance
