Data Vaulting
Datavaulting is online, off-site backup of all your corporate data assets, eliminating the need for manual tape backups. Backing up mail, print and database servers in addition to user desktops and laptops with DS3 DataVaulting dramatically reduces the time to restore and removes anxiety about the unreliability of damaged, lost or corrupted magnetic tapes.

DS3 DataVaulting is an off-site, on line, real-time network backup & restore service. We protect a company’s entire enterprise including workstations, file servers, databases, and email systems. Our service eliminates the need for manual tape backups. Secure remote backups and restores are performed by DS3 using the Internet or through dedicated communication. Our customer's data is vaulted in at&t's secure, fault-tolerant data centers. DS3's strategic relationship with at&t gives us the opportunity to choose from their vast menu of services as we design custom solutions for our customers. Our strict data management practices, coupled with our automatic (i.e. no human intervention) off-site storage, positively impacts our customers’ disaster recovery/business continuity strategy.

Benefits
  • Risk Reduction - the vulnerability of your organization having incomplete backups is virtually eliminated.
  • Increased Productivity - by removing the tedious tasks of managing the backup and restore process, your highly-trained IT staff is freed to tackle more challenging IT issues.
  • Disaster Contingency - This service has inherent disaster recovery capabilities, allowing you to continue your work regardless of unforeseen disasters.
  • Reduced Backup Times – “Delta-blocking” ensures that only changed portions of a file are transmitted. Compression methods further reduce the data size.
  • Reduced Recovery Times - Restore times for accidentally deleted files are dramatically reduced, which can help make your end users more productive.
  • Ease of Future Planning – This service is scalable and can upgrade as your data grows.
  • Cost Effectiveness - Our service is priced to be competitive with hardware/software offerings which attempt to address the same issues.
  • Minimal Capital Outlay – The customer is charged on a monthly 'usage' basis. You only pay for the amount of storage (post-compression) used. There is a nominal, one-time fee for setup.
