Platform Replication

What do we offer?

These services deliver a virtual mirror of your IT platform and data centre for use in a variety of ways, including failover, compliance, data restoration and testing. You have complete peace of mind through immediate access to replicated servers and data, minimising potential downtime, business disruption and associated costs. This approach is particularly attractive for organisations whose applications are subject to change, industries and sectors subject to compliance regulations, and businesses for which the availability of applications and data is critical, with access by users and customers essential, even during data centre outages and times of crisis.

How do you benefit?

• A fully managed service that delivers improved IT at a cost far lower than would be possible replicating your environment in-house, either physically or virtually
• A platform that's 'always on' - always available - with significant reductions in business risk
• Streamlined business continuity and disaster recovery contingency planning and execution
• Enhanced business performance in the event of disaster
• Increased data integrity and availability
• Further costs savings via WAN traffic optimisation
• Recovery from natural disasters (fire, flood) and human action (malicious attacks) is simpler and faster
• Data recovery problems are significantly reduced, saving time by minimising issues relating to lost data

What's covered?

These services are designed for independence of the hardware layer, re-emphasising the operating system and application layers to reduce cost and complexity. Your platform is secured through one of ICM's highly secure and environmentally controlled data centres, built to Tier 3 standard, staffed by experts in hosting, replication, backup and recovery.

If you are running vital real-time applications, or your business is strictly regulated, we can provide duplicate servers and data copies. In fact, our service covers the activation, monitoring and operational support of all aspects of server and storage management. Our proven experience ensures we avoid common pitfalls, and use only the best tools, infrastructure, processes and procedures to manage multiple business requirements.
