Data safety touches many aspects in our life. For businesses, most valuable are large databases, wich are created over years and consist many details of projects, documentation nad client data. Creating data may be really time and work consuming, recreating data, once lost may be extremely hard or even impossible. Loosing large chunk of data means most of the times, that you lost valuable part of business.
The most crucial trouble with backup plans is that you need them really after every few years. For example, lifetime of average computer hard drive is about four and half years. If you buy new computer, you don't often start thinking about possible troubles before you experience something actually crashing.
Our job is to ensure, that you think about creating data backup plan BEFORE you loose data. Most of the businesses, creating data safety strategy takes some efforts, but once the backup plan is created, and actual technical solutions implemented, day to day operations become fairly simple. Even more, having good data handling solutions may you even help with data versioning and make simple tasks more productive (since they are automated). |
