Data archiving is an aspect of data protection that is generally underutilized by smaller enterprises. Unlike data backup, which is a process for remotely copying dynamic operational data to remote storage, data archiving is a process designed to preserve and protect static blocks of reference information. In most cases, archival data consists of larger blocks of coherent records required by internal and/or external parties for record retention and audit purposes. Proper use of data backups and archives reduces the recovery time for critical operational data, since there is less data to sort through and recovery, and minimizes operating costs, due to archived data's lower cost per unit of storage.
1Plug Enterprise Data Archive service provides access to both data backups and archives through the same interface, minimizing the time and effort required to manage and test your data protection systems and the training time for system administrators. Informed use of 1Plug's Enterprise Data Backup, Data Archive, and OnCall allows smaller enterprises to have data protection systems comparable to those used by Fortune 500 firms.
