The Importance of Offsite Backup and Recovery
When it comes to disasters, the question isn't if, but how or when they will occur. And any loss of data or access to data can potentially be disastrous in a healthcare environment. Loss of data can be the result of minor power outages to catastrophic floods, fires, tornadoes, etc., but more often the result of malicious tampering, computer failure, hardware theft, computer viruses, or hacking. The most common is the disaster of simply deleting a file accidentally.
Healthcare organizations must be proactive to ensure that when a disaster occurs, their data will be protected, so they can get back to work as quickly as possible. If you're like most organizations, you rely on your computer systems to keep day-to-day operations running smoothly. Any unexpected crash or downtime-such as when systems fail or become inaccessible-can result in serious consequences, including reputation damage, lost revenue, or legal liability. If your data isn't protected when a serious glitch occurs, the digital assets that serve your patients and drive your operation can be permanently lost.
Many organizations don't have the time, resources, or knowledgeable staff to deal with the ongoing maintenance and management required of their applications, software, tape backup and hardware. This is where ClearDATA's Backup service to our remote systems in the cloud can help. Your valuable data is automatically stored offsite in our secure data centers, safe in the event of a natural disaster. This model is also suitable for an increasingly mobile workforce, as data can be restored from anywhere with a secure Internet connection. Whether you are working with healthcare applications or data storage and protection, healthcare organizations are increasingly turning to ClearDATA's Cloud Computing Platform for backup solutions they can trust to ease the burden on their time and resources.

Online Data Backup Reduces Costs, Saves Time, Improves Reliability, and Serves as First Step Towards Disaster Recovery
Centrally-managed, automated online backup and data protection services have been shown to significantly decrease costs compared to tape-based solutions. Thanks to the substantial savings gained through the elimination of tapes, tape drives, offsite tape storage and transportation, labor, and maintenance of equipment; online data protection services have been shown to reduce costs by as much as 75%.
Further, the costs and time devoted to backups are wasted if your data cannot be recovered quickly, easily, and reliably. Restoring data from tape is labor-intensive and costly. Restoring a single file often takes hours and the failure rates associated with tapes are unacceptable in today's information age.
With no capital equipment costs, maintenance, or labor - not to mention tape failure - ClearDATA's HealthDATA Vault online, offsite data protection service offers significant advantages over tape-based systems. Learn more about the advantages of online offsite backup over tape.
The first two critical steps to a data recovery plan are to 1) ensure consistent backup practices and 2) backup to offsite storage. With ClearDATA's HealthDATA Vault Backup service, both of these steps are combined and automated, providing you with 100% recovery reliability should a disaster or data loss occur. Recovery for small losses is done with a few mouse clicks, over the wire. Larger volumes are recovered from a Mobile HealthDATA Vault - a portable disk device that carries a encrypted (secure) copy of your backup to your recovery site.
Cloud Data Archive and Storage Virtual Recovery
(standby virtual machines)
ClearDATA has perfected a way to integrate your backup data with standby virtual servers that can be accessed remotely following an outage. Server virtualization enables us to offer recovery servers that can be activated with your exact production server image. The result is a near exact, running replica of your production servers ready to be accessed from users remotely.
Data Replication & High Availability
For applications that won't tolerate downtime, ClearDATA offers real-time replication to keep your systems running no matter what. From our headquarters and flagship datacenters, ClearDATA is uniquely positioned to either host your critical applications in a highly available infrastructure or function as the target host of your replication solution, maintaining a virtual replica while you manage the production master.
