Business Continuity Planning / Disaster Recovery Services

Ixilix understands the necessity and demands of systems being available anywhere at anytime.  Whether it is a natural disaster, changes in business plans or compliance regulations, Ixilix customizes solutions to work with the varying needs of our customers.  At Ixilix, we provide advisory support to guide you through the planning process.  We understand that the same approach does not work for every customer and we will work with you to explore all of the options available so that you have the optimal approach based on your business needs and budget.

With the advent of mainstream virtualization and asynchronous data replication methods, disaster recovery and business continuity are very affordable even for small- and medium-sized businesses.  Ixilix is a leader in these new methods.

Key Considerations:

Where Do I Start?

Often figuring out where to start is the most difficult step in building a disaster recovery plan. Ixilix understands this frustration and has developed a standardized technique to evaluate and recommend optimal disaster recovery solutions.  Ixilix will perform a Business Impact Analysis. As part of the Business Impact Analysis, we will work with your organization to:

• Assess the threats, vulnerabilities and exposure to loss as key considerations in the disaster recovery   

   plan.

• Ensure integration of disaster recover plans with business continuity programs to provide consistency

   with business needs and priorities.

•  Evaluate business processes to determine:

• Maximum Tolerable Downtime (MTD) - How long can you operate without the business

   process before it impacts the survival of your organization?

• Recovery Time Objective (RTO) - How long can you wait for each indivdual business

   process to be back online?

• Recovery Point Objective (RPO) - How update-to-date does the data need to be? Can

   data be restored from a week, day or minute ago? Or must it be real time?
