ROBO Explained
Remote Offices and Branch Offices generally have a large amount of company data;
most of which is still backed up locally via a tape backup solution. Although
this is the current industry standard process, it has major consequences
associated with it such as the reliance on non-technical management to manage
tapes and process, and most likely is not audited to make sure that all local
data is being captured correctly.
ROBOBAK offers a solution for protecting data at that is non-invasive with
regard to technology and to day-to-day operations of the remotely located
office. It’s deployment throughout an enterprises network is designed to
eliminate the need to involve local non technical staff in the process, while at
the same time providing a consistent scheduling of backup, all focused on the
end goal of timely and accurate recovery should the need ever arise.
It is a generally accepted fact that in most organizations that digitally stored
information resides in remote locations, and not in the central data center. The
real issue is that most if not al of this data is not protected in an efficient
manner. When a disaster either minor or major occurs, the tasks needed for the
recovery of the data are significant since the remote office needs to be put in
the loop for tape handling or trouble shooting. If tapes were created, often
they are only weekly snap shots, and may be stored offsite. The process needed
to establish which tapes are needed, and how to recover the data are usually
created on the fly, causing a major impact at the remote location, and in many
cases, stresses the centrally located staff, who are needed for other company
activities.
ROBOBAK’ solution was specifically designed to solve the distributed digital
data conundrum, with its flexibility, and its Smart Crawl Technology™ data
discovery capabilities, allow our clients to protect data anywhere, and we mean
anywhere in the world on land, sea or air. Going further, our solution encrypts
and compresses data locally, and continuously verifies the integrity of the
protected data ensuring and an extra level of security and reliability.
Our solution needs to be understood from both a technology and business point of
view. Our business model significantly reduces the overall capital and
operational expenses associated with distributed locally managed backup
processes. With a centralized management console, and a decreased (or
elimination of) reliance on tapes, hardware, and the removal of non-skilled
staff from the process, and an efficient use of already deployed network
infrustructure; ROBOBAK delivers for our clients.
