Backup and disaster recovery strategies are essential for businesses in order to minimize the impact of system failures. The @cloud Brand Compute Engine provides you with an effective tool for this in the form of Acronis Cloud Backup.
Disaster Recovery
For the erage company, data is crucial for working processes. Therefore, it should be backed up effectively so that it can be restored very quickly in case of an emergency. Successful disaster recovery means that efficient workflows can resume as soon as possible.
The advantages are clear:
Short downtimes mean that a company can still be reached at practically any time, which leads to growing trust in the company and an improved brand image.A company's ability to conduct business is also maintained andfinancial losses are kept within reasonable limits.Helps companies comply with their obligation to keep accounting and financial data in accordance with data protection measures.Business continuity and disaster recovery
Business Continuity Management comprises all measures that ensure that the ongoing operations of a company are affected as little as possible in extreme or catastrophic situations (e.g. power failure, pandemics, natural disasters) or can be restored to normal very quickly.
Disaster recovery strategies, on the other hand, refer to the rapid restoration of IT systems and stored data.
In order for disaster recovery to be successful, a plan for structured data recovery must be in place.
When deciding how best to proceed, the following questions could help:
How much data may be lost? (Recovery Point Objective, RPO)Which data sing method do I choose and at what intervals should it be sed?How long can the system be down for before it becomes critical for the business? (Recovery Time Objective, RTO)What is the ideal location for backups?What types of backups are ailable and how are they best used?Full backupDifferential backupIncremental backupData backup with Acronis Backup Cloud and the IONOS Compute Engine
The @cloud Brand Compute Engine mirrors a public cloud. But not all elements of an IT infrastructure need to be in the cloud: on-premises solutions are often combined with components in the cloud. Acronis Cloud Backup backs up all these components reliably. You can also use Acronis Cloud Backup for IT systems that are not in the enterprise cloud at all.
The advantage is that it is easy to use: In the user interface and API of the Compute Engine, you will find a button to access the Acronis backup console. Here you determine which servers or VMs are backed up, and with which sing method. This will make your work easier even if you move your system from "real" hardware to the cloud at a later point or simply partially move it: Access to the Acronis Backup Console is always located in the same place, no matter how much your system changes over time.
Acronis initially performs a full backup and then ses changes incrementally. In the event of an incident, the entire data backup can later be restored as a full backup – all at the push of a button. With Acronis Cloud Backup in the Compute Engine, you he a powerful tool at hand that helps you to protect all components of your IT system appropriately.
