RAID 'can avoid disaster recovery'
Category: Data destruction
26 September, 2008
Online backup solutions have increased in popularity as file compression capabilities have increased, as well as internet bandwidth speeds, a technology expert claims.However, this type is limited in its capacity in uploading data onto the backup company's server, Carlton Nielsen , the co-owner of NYLEX.NET, a local computer network support company in Siberia, tells the Times-Standard.
Via this method, computer data files are protected, rather than operating systems or programmes, he adds.
Businesses may be interested to know that a redundant array of independent discs (RAID recovery) is a set of mirrored hard drives that keeps a duplicate copy of data on two same-sized hard drives.
If a hard drive fails, there is another one to work off because it has mirrored the data, which could avoid disaster recovery methods being deployed, he explains to the Standard.
In related news, Web 2.0-style service providers who have a very high-volume content may want to consider cloud-based services for primary storage, Continuity Central reports.
