Cloud Services & Backup

Backup concepts are matched to data volume and acceptable downtime – on-premises, in the cloud, or a combination of both.

Scope of services

What matters is the restore, not the backup.

Retention periods and target recovery time shape the backup concept. Regular restore tests make sure the data actually comes back when it matters.

  1. Cloud backup and hybrid backup concepts
  2. Disaster recovery planning
  3. Regular restore tests
  4. Migrating services to the cloud
  5. Monitoring of backup jobs
  6. Backup for Microsoft 365: e-mail, OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams
  7. Additional off-site copy following the 3-2-1 rule
  8. Restore tests with a written record

Process

How it works.

01

Analysis

It is established which data needs to be restored, and how fast.

02

Concept

On-site and off-site backup is planned following the 3-2-1 rule.

03

Setup

Backup jobs for servers and Microsoft 365 are set up.

04

Test & monitoring

Regular restore tests and job monitoring prepare for the worst case.

Benefits

What you gain.

Data that can actually be restored

Tested backups instead of just hoping for the best.

Protected against ransomware

An off-site copy survives even if an attack hits the main system.

Microsoft 365 covered too

E-mail, OneDrive and Teams are backed up as well.

FAQ

Good to know.

What does the 3-2-1 rule mean?

Three copies of the data, on two different types of media, one of them off-site.

Why a separate backup for Microsoft 365?

Microsoft provides the service, but deleted or encrypted data can only be recovered to a limited extent without a separate backup.

How is it verified that backups actually work?

Through ongoing monitoring of the backup jobs and regular restore tests with a written record.
