| Disaster Management |
Top |
Any application that requires high availability also needs a disaster recovery plan to mitigate the risks associated with an outage. Whether you're looking for a plan to recover a specific application or an entire IT environment, DCM Data Systems’ IT Disaster Recovery Services can take you from planning through design and deployment and into testing. Our methodology for IT Disaster Recovery Services is based on industry best practices. This methodology can be utilized as a stand-alone solution, or it can be implemented in conjunction with a pre-established customer disaster recovery plan.
Our Consultants help identify and document the complete process such that you can start functioning within the shortest possible time after any unfortunate disaster has happened. As part of Disaster Recovery Services we carry out drills with your people every quarter on the preparedness of the people and remove the lacunae as the process evolves. |

| Information Lifecycle Management “ILM” |
Top |
| |
|
| |
| Storage management has traditionally been focused on infrastructure management defined by functionality that includes: |
| |
- Storage device configuration and management
- Storage network configuration and management
- Storage and backup software configuration and operation
- Primary storage capacity management and provisioning
- Heterogeneous storage component discovery
- Storage system monitoring
- Performance and capacity utilization reporting
|
However in the current scenario, the growing business focus is on managing the information to meet the business initiatives. The information must be managed through its entire lifecycle and not just when it is created.
The data capacities under management continue to grow at dramatic rates. The business value of data, varies widely from the time of creation to the time of deletion.
Therefore Information Lifecycle Management “ILM” is the strategy of matching storage policies, processes, and technologies to the value of information at the time it is created, and as it ages, to cost-effectively meet the business needs of organizations.
To achieve this strategy, organizations must have: |
| |
- Information definition and classification
- Well-defined management functionality
- The ability to move information among storage tiers as its value changes
|
| DCM Data Systems, with its reservoir of storage skills, its prime position with storage products like Tivoli Software Solutions and its quality experience, is in an enviable position to help organizations manage their growing information lifecycle needs, optimally. |
