It may surprise you to know we have invested in hardware and knowledge skills that allow us to offer the same comprehensive level of support for multivendor technology as we do for our own IBM products. When we talk about multivendor information technology, we don't just mean hardware platforms. We take in to account your diverse range of operating system applications and databases, such as Oracle, Windows NT, and Novell Netware and the network directories that tie these all together.
Whether your critical business applications run on hardware manufactured by Sun Microsystems, Digital Equipment Corporation (COMPAQ), Hewlett Packard, Tandem or other major manufacturers, we can utilise our technology skills and assets to provide you an end-to-end recovery solution.
Our recommended approach would be to first determine which elements of your multivendor information technology infrastructure are critical to the continuous operations of your business, then identity the recovery time objective and priorities that should be built into a comprehensive recovery plan. Based on your specific needs and budget, we can then offer you a tailored solution. Within that solution, we can provide flexible options as follows:
Rapid recovery provides options to manage data for a quick recovery and minimal data loss. IBM offers many rapid recovery capabilities including journaling, and mirroring solutions for operating systems, databases and applications. The equipment and infrastructures that we use to provide rapid recovery solutions are located in our strategically located IBM recovery sites.
Our IBM recovery sites provide the complete, fully configured replacement technology and various options for network connectivity that you require. Your backup data can be physically transported by tape media or electronically transmitted over high speed data lines.
