More than backup

Gone are the days when basic backup solutions were adequate. Today, companies are governed by strict service level agreements that demand faster backup and effortless recovery for systems, applications and data.

Juanita van Staden, AxizWorkgroup CA Product specialist says that organisations are looking for solutions that are cost effective and reduce complexity, management and maintenance. When deciding on a data protection and recovery solution organisations are looking to a faster, more efficient and reliable way to copy their data offsite and to the cloud.

“Data growth continues to be a significant challenge for enterprises as well as the increase in mobile offices,” she says. The increase in remote offices is resulting in data residing on different mediums and in different places. This creates a challenge in meeting SLA agreements, specifically relating to recovery time and availability schedules.

AxizWorkgroup is the sole distributor for CA Technologies. Van Staden says that the CA ARCserve Family of products provides a complete strategy to manage backup, recovery and availability across diverse platforms, applications and storage devices.
