Selecting the Right Data Protection Solution for your 
Business
Most businesses these days appreciate the importance of data protection 
measures. Surprisingly, many businesses still use older methods of data 
backup such as tape systems, onsite backup methods, and offsite systems 
that can lead to additional days being added to recovery timing should 
something go wrong. Ineffective and inefficient methods consume resources 
and add to the risk of further failures. 
Newer data backup and recovery 
technologies reduce risks while 
increasing efficiency and shortening 
recovery time. In addition, these 
newer technology options tend to 
reduce network risks that 
sometimes go undetected, whilst 
also providing a solution that can 
reduce storage management and 
maintenance costs.
In order to choose which of the best 
data protection solution is right for 
you, it is important to understand 
your options.
Hosted Cloud Services
Cloud-based data protection is an option that 
many companies are using due to its 
accessibility, reliability, and security.  Data 
storage in the cloud offers an affordable 
solution for many businesses because it has 
the capability to provide the best of both 
worlds which is immediate access to data 
while enjoying the reliability and security of 
offsite storage. In addition, many cloud 
offerings these days come with a range of 
options for security and storage, in order to 
meeting specific industry compliance needs. 
Onsite Data Storage and Backup
A potential drawback of onsite data storage  
is a business can be exposed to complete 
data loss in the event of a fire or flood if 
multiple backup methods are not in place. 
This solution also requires a resource to 
manage and monitor the system and perform 
backups on a routine basis, to ensure its 
performance and reliability during a failure. 
This solution depending on the load of data 
being backed up can also turn out to be quite 
expensive in terms of hardware and 
maintenance.
Offsite Storage and Backup
Offsite storage is typically available in a range of options from tape storage, 
data warehousing, or data storage strategies which are configured by the 
business. Offsite data storage makes use of redundant data storage which 
provides multiple backup copies and can be designed for storage in multiple 
physical locations. Offsite storage solutions can also make the recovery 
process significantly slower than onsite storage depending upon the methods 
that are used for recovery.
