RBS is an alternative to traditional backup methods, replacing conventional solutions with a fully automated online solution. Consonus' RBS provides automated backups of heterogeneous file servers as well as application and database servers with encrypted, secure offsite storage, and rapid online restoration. The Remote Backup Services offering includes 24x7 monitoring of customers' backup environments provided in a Consonus SAS 70-compliant network operations center. As a key component of a firm's business continuity plan, RBS is critical in establishing and communicating effective preparedness, recovery and resiliency practices.
