VeriCenter leverages the benefits of a utility-based architecture with the best practices and processes that come from backing up hundreds of servers every night. Our data assurance services provide daily incremental and weekly full backups of your vital data from all servers managed in VeriCenter's nationwide data centers. This service includes restoration of data to servers using these backups. Data Assurance also provides standard onsite and optional offsite vaulting of backup tapes, which means you get a cost-effective and reliable data archiving service that can be tailored to meet your unique data archiving needs.
The Backup Process
Each of our data centers has a centralized backup infrastructure. A Veritas NetBackup agent is installed onto every server managed by VeriCenter, and a network of servers manages the process of scheduling and executing the daily incremental and weekly full backups. The backup data is sent to a tape robot for the actual storage of data onto magnetic tapes, and for the onsite archiving of these tapes until they are reused. Our highly automated process is overseen by VeriCenter personnel dedicated to this purpose.
Variable Backups: Standard and Custom
VeriCenter is responsible for the entire backup infrastructure. You pay only for the backups we perform, without regard to capital costs associated with tape robots, media servers, or software licenses, or personnel costs. We install, license, and test the backup software during system set-up to ensure that you are provided a fully functional environment capable of meeting your requirements.
In working with our customers over the past several years, we discovered some only want the most relevant data to be backed up on a weekly basis - transactions and content - and prefer to exclude data associated with the operating system or, in some cases, the applications themselves, such as database servers. Essentially, customers prefer to differentiate data that can be efficiently restored from a CD or another server from data that represents actual transactions and content.
