Disaster Recovery/Redundancy
Detailed Disaster Recovery plans are in place should such an event occur. Parallel sets of servers are running in a secondary location should a failover need to occur with minimal down-time. Backup sets are taken in physical form (tapes/dvd) as well as through secure file transfer to an off-site location.
Typical Data Archiving includes daily scheduled backups – although more frequent (and incremental) backup schedules are available.
