Thought you might be interested in an article Data Backup and Recovery: Essential Strategies for Small Businesses and thought I’d share a few points with you here. I’ve found some relevant information here so if I find more, I’ll be sure to pass it on.
For a business of any size, data storage and information handling are two of the most important aspects of operations in the modern commercial world.
For small businesses, these two elements can be even more vital. This is because the resources that are available to them on a day-to-day basis may be far more restricted than those of major corporate-level rivals.
Digital data - In the past, most businesses would have kept extensive filing systems full of printed documents, invoices, letters, and contracts.
In today’s world, almost every aspect of written commercial communications takes place in the digital realm. From emails through to social media posting and blog posts, the sheer amount of data and word count generated by even the smallest business can be overwhelming.
Plan for the worst - Even if you meticulously back up data and information to another machine or dedicated storage medium, a disaster on a large scale, such as flooding, storm damage or other major physical disruption event, can lay waste to everything.
Electrical surges can fry hard drives, water damage can wreck most electrical equipment, and a workplace that becomes unusable can mean that all copies of your data can be lost.
