Backup, Recovery and Protection

Data storage, backup and system recovery can save your business from going under in the event of the unexpected.


Data Backup & Storage

Basic provide a range of solutions and professional services for the provision of Data Storage, Archive & Backup, Recovery and Basic Total Image Protection (BTIP).

Ensuring your business has access to current information is critical. Data is the lifeblood of any organisation and to ensure this data is readily available at all times, your data storage infrastructure must be reliable, flexible to cope with new business demands and importantly, simple to manage.

Solutions vary in terms of cost and complexity, so we feel it is important to begin by looking at what your business needs are in terms of accessing, manipulating and using your data in order to make your company competitive.

Data Backup & Storage Solutions

  • Cloud, Remote & Off Site Backup

    Private and Public Cloud Backup Solutions in Basics secure data centre additionally with colocation, ideal as part of a Recovery or BTIP solution.

  • NAS, SAN & Unified Shared Storage

    Shared Storage using NAS or SAN helps businesses consolidate multiple servers with their own storage into a single shared storage environment. Direct attached storage cannot easily be shared between server systems and as data storage needs increase in terms of quantity, speed of access and reliability - a shared storage solution should be considered for your organisation.

  • Integrated Cloud Storage with Office 365

    If you use Office 365 you have access to Microsofts bundled cloud storage.


When planning a data storage infrastructure, whether this is a brand new investment or upgrading existing storage to meet new demands, you need to consider some of the following;

Data Growth

What is my data growth over the next 1-3 years?

The amount of data we create is growing faster each day. And depending on your sector and the types of data created this may grow by 30% in the next 12 months.

The problem with an ever growing data store is not only one of storage. It also includes how you back this data up in the first place and how easily you can recover the data.

You need solutions that:

  • Significantly reduce your backup storage requirements.
  • Reduce the time spent backing up and archiving your data.
  • Reduce the costs of your IT infrastructure and resource usage.
  • Simplify your environment while meeting your protection and recovery objectives.

Data Life Cycle

What is the typical life cycle of our data, from creation through to archive?

Do you need to keep it? How long will it need to be stored and are there any legal requirements?

We can advise on the ways you can save money by introducing a data life cycle plan and help you with retention periods. Not all data is created equal and some of it may need different policies and storage processes.


Safeguard Data

How do we safeguard our data from loss, theft, corruption or infection?

Security is one of the most important aspects of your data management. Whether you need strict private access to archive and restore or select team members, we can implement a structure that suits you.

Alongside this security is the overall protection and integrity of the data and systems. You can feel at ease knowing that your data and systems are being fully backed up and will be recoverable in the event of a disaster.
