Business Continuity

Recovering business operations after a disaster is hard. Maintaining operations during and straight through a disaster is even harder. That’s the idea behind Logicworks’ Business Continuity solutions. We combine high-availability architectures with proven disaster recovery methodologies, to enable your organization to continue functioning during a disaster, rather than simply being able to recover after a disaster.

Every business with an Internet-based application that generates revenue needs to make continuity planning part of its business and IT strategy. Disasters do not have to be catastrophic, but their results can be. Not having access to email for a day can be as catastrophic as losing the last 25 database transactions; not backing up to an off-site location may be detrimental; and putting all your eggs in one basket— or on one server— is tempting fate.

Logicworks offers business continuity services to customers running their primary architecture at Logicworks or elsewhere. If you are intent on staying within your current IT environment, incorporating Logicworks’ Complex Hosting into your continuity strategies can provide greater efficiencies than doing it in-house. Logicworks can build-out, manage, and maintain a fail-over infrastructure while alleviating the stress usually associated with having to staff and operate a secondary facility. For clients with their primary infrastructure managed by Logicworks, business continuity is delivered through replication to one of our secondary or tertiary facilities. In either scenario, Logicworks will assist in planning and facilitating your continuity goals, testing procedures to assure that your disaster recovery plan executes successfully.

Rapid Response and Recovery

Accidents happen, whether it's a failing hard disk, or an accidental erasure of a vital file. With our managed backup and recovery services, Logicworks' engineers can rapidly restore your data, servers, and functionality. Recovery is enhanced when coupled with our managed database services and high-availability architectures. Logicworks also makes identical hardware available on a stand-by, ready-to-go basis for all solutions to minimize downtime due to hardware failure.

Multi-Site Redundancy

True disaster recovery capability requires multi-site configurations. All servers at a single facility are subject to the same environmental conditions, a risk that Logicworks can mitigate with a redundant architecture located at one of Logicworks' alternate facilities. Ultimately determined by business requirements, the process by which failover to the secondary facility occurs can be implemented manually for finer-grained control, or through global server load balancing.
