FEATURE : DISASTER RECOVERY
It ’ s never too early to start thinking about your backup and recovery strategy , but it can definitely be too late . Here are some key best practices from the team at Qumulo for massive-scale file data backup and security .

Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity are more top-of-mind than ever , with a remote workforce and digital-only operations across healthcare , research , financial services and more .

Unstructured file data in particular is a challenge to back up , since the sheer amount of individual files makes it time-consuming to identify which files are modified or need protecting . The shift to ‘ anywhere operations ’ has accelerated digitization efforts , making enterprises more data-intensive - and making it harder to protect that data .
The volume of data created in a given day can overwhelm the capabilities of many traditional backup solutions .
The stakes are high and file data is irreplaceable . Unrecovered file data can come in the form of missing security camera footage that would have caught a crime in action , a lost painting in a museum archive that filled a gap in history , a medical image that impacts a patient outcome , stolen intellectual property or ransomware .

Protecting your data with a comprehensive solution
