Data Backup System- 10/21/2008

Configuring a data backup system should not end after selecting a backup software solution and hardware on which to run it. Data backup should be systemic throughout the organization, and should extend to every aspect of the business. Experts agree that data backup best practices include proactive behavior and technologies to address everything from virus protection to firewall configuration and from proper software update practices to aggressive email and spam filtering.

Your data is the most valuable asset of the business, and there is no sound reason to cut corners when deciding how to protect it. The data backup system you choose today could likely be your businesses lifeline in the event of a disaster or catastrophic data loss. For the same reasons that businesses don’t hedge their spending on bandwidth or application software licenses, cutting corners in creating your backup environment and practices can return negative dividends in the long run. The backup needs of one company are rarely identical to another company, even within the same industry, and likewise the data backup system for one rarely matches the other. Graphic-intensive companies such as design firms or marketing companies will create a large number of very large files in a typical day’s work. Other businesses, such as insurance agencies or retail stores, will have a larger number of typically very small files. Considering the varied types of data created and maintained by different organizations is a key element in understanding, and planning, the correct data backup system and environment for your company or clients.
