INSITE - What we do - Real Time Disaster Recovery

Surprisingly few organisations have the plans or procedures in place to implement a complete and up-to-the-minute disaster recovery programme in the event of unforeseen and critical business interruption.

Insite recognises the dependence of today’s business on its IT systems and has designed an advanced and highly cost-effective business continuity solution involving the real-time replication of a client's WINTEL servers using market leading products from NSI Software and VMware to provide companies with an immediate business recovery point.

The end of disaster recovery as we know it.

There are three components to our business continuity solution:

VMware ESX Server is used to create a cost effective business continuity infrastructure that includes all mission critical servers running as virtual machines

NSI Double-Take software replicates data in real time from any server running Microsoft Windows operating system including MS Exchange, MS SQL & Oracle

Microsoft Terminal Server 2003 deploys applications to any Internet enabled PC equipped with a web browser from any location

We provide our business continuity solution as a ‘one-off’ installation on a client site or as a managed service based at our secure data centre.

The Benefits

Insite can provide disaster recovery solutions for most applications and data based either on-site or at a completely different location.

Costs of our disaster recovery service are calculated on required availability, core infrastructure and the number of users requiring access to systems in the event of an emergency.

	By using Microsoft 2003 terminal services and real time replication software, Insite's managed business continuity service reduces potential downtime to seconds, irrespective of cause.
	Provides an 'always on' business continuity service that can be tested at any time.
	The need for downtime during hardware maintenance of production servers is avoided as users can temporarily work using the business continuity service.
	Insite's service immediately assumes control in the event of hardware, operating systems, applications or data failure and alerts system administrators of production server failure.
	Upgrading systems during normal working hours becomes possible.
	Insite's business continuity solution combines data mirroring, server consolidation, and disaster recovery and system maintenance in a single managed service.
	Insite's business continuity service ensures that scheduled and unscheduled downtime is no longer a problem.
	All applications are accessible over the Internet using a browser from any location anywhere in the world.
