RoundHeaven'smanaged hosting solutions provide built-in protection such as daily databackup, verification, and offsite storage, round-the-clock monitoring,secure hardened servers, managed firewall, intrusion detection, userauthentication, and complete documentation of each of its customers' setups,in the event that a rebuild is necessary.
More robust solutions are now available, for organizations that need toensure even faster recovery and higher availability of their Internetoperations. RoundHeaven's DRP solutions vary from "cold" to "hot" failovers,depending on an organization's budget, and tolerance for risk. Specificservices range from a procedure that cuts over to a temporary site in theevent of a hardware or software failure, to a completely redundant system ina different geographic location, with synchronized databases that willseamlessly provide continued business operations without missing a singletransaction.
"RoundHeaven's solutions are designed to maximize the availability ofInternet operations," said Au. "Our managed hosting solutions already havesecure, redundant services built in to quickly recover from unexpectedevents. DRP is a logical extension of our hosting solutions, and is in highdemand as organizations come to rely more and more on their Internetoperations for their continued success."
