Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery

Prepare for the Worst. Work with the Best.

Business continuity is non-negotiable in today’s business world. Even minimal downtime can cost you substantially in the form of lost revenues and lost customers. Even a short period of downtime can be fatal to your business. Still, many organizations hesitate to implement large-scale disaster recovery initiatives because of the costs and the complexity involved. Savvis allays those concerns with a cost-effective solution that gives you true peace of mind.

A Strategic Approach That Keeps You Up and Running Under the Most Adverse Conditions.

The Savvis approach to Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery provides a holistic solution designed to minimize the impact of unplanned events and keep your business operational.

After an initial assessment, our consultants will work with you to develop a strategy that will include one or more of the following elements:

  • Cold Site. Conditioned and ready for the immediate installation of your equipment, this provides you with the basics in Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery.
  • Warm Site. Configured with hardware and the necessary software, this gives you added protection in case of a disaster.
  • Hot Site. This helps you to be prepared for complete recovery should any unanticipated event cause your primary systems to fail, with all of your hardware and software located at strategically located Savvis data centers.
  • High Availability Site.
