Doomsayers are like stars in the sky. They always show up, and while they may shine, they’re always surrounded by darkness and gloom.
So when we talk disasters, we’re not pointing our fingers and telling you to stock up on canned goods, water and fuel. We’re just sharing a realistic truth: Disasters happen, often without warning.
For example, see what the National Fire Protection Association reported about 2010:
--U.S. fire departments responded to an estimated
1.3 million fires in 2010.
--These fires resulted an estimated $11.6 billion in
direct property loss
If you add flooding, hurricanes, earthquakes or something as seemingly benign as a power surge or transformer blow-out, then the business risk becomes real. Too real.
The answer is simple: Be prepared (See and hear the video story of one business owner who faced a hurricane and flood).
But, historically, the actual preparation hasn’t been so easy or inexpensive. Setting up redundancy services, keeping the pipelines clear isn’t just a budgeting line-item.
Well, it can be now. Cloud computing takes us one step further to making backup and disaster recovery services almost as easy as ordering a book from Amazon.

Backup and Disaster Recovery
What’s important to know?
- Many cloud providers - for enterprises or SMBs - do not support multiple operating systems, databases, legacy applications and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems, all of which require backup and disaster recovery.
- The Xerox Cloud offers Infrastructure as a Service, plus complete backup and recovery of data, applications and operating systems-- everything on the server can be restored in less than 24 hours.
- Affordability is a must from any cloud provider—for enterprises and SMBs. Monthly, utility-based price (customers pay for what they use) is the way to go.
- Avoid long-term contracts. They are not necessary.
- Know—really know—that data backup is replicated, secured, encrypted and conducted daily.
