Why hardware and software are not enough?

The uninterrupted availability of all key resources to support essential business processes or simply, business continuity, has been taking a considerable amount of managers' time and attention recently. Business processes have never been  more depending upon the technology infrastructure as they are today. Business continuity management and contingency planning are essential and unavoidable. Interrupt the IT infrastructure and you interrupt the business. Certain events might be outside the direct control of the organisation, but this does not mean you should not plan for their impact. Ferranti supports you in many solutions and technologies. Business Impact Analysis, Risk Analysis, Disaster Recovery, Data Recovery, Clustering, Data Replication, designing of fail-safe backup plans and of course audits. We can test your continuity plan to reveal and accommodate changes because technology and  personnel are in a constant state of change at any company. We provide our customers with a structured and affordable approach to business continuity management.

Other questions we have been asked lately :

• How long will it take to recover our data in a crisis?
• Is datareplication the same as clustering ?
• I have a disaster recovery plan, can you test it for me ?
• Are disaster recovery and business continuity the same concepts ?
