Backup & Disaster Recovery in Boston

Fast local backups so a restore takes minutes, automatically copied to a second region well outside New England — clear of nor'easters, coastal flooding, and the regional grid. So ransomware, a failed server, or a regional grid or weather event doesn't take your Boston business down.

Fast restore

A local copy nearby for quick, low-latency recovery

2nd region

A geo-separated copy in a separate region for real DR

Immutable

Ransomware-resistant copies that can't be altered or deleted

Fast because it's local, safe because it's not only local

Good backup answers two different questions. The everyday one — “someone deleted a file, a server died, restore it now” — is answered fastest by a copy that's physically close, so recovery isn't throttled by internet distance. That's the low-latency local backup.

The rare, bad-day question is different. New England takes serious winter — the 2015 season buried Boston in record snow and paralyzed the region for weeks, and nor'easters and coastal flooding arrive every year. Keeping a recovery copy in the same region as your business isn't real protection. So the second thing we do is automatically replicate your backup to a second region well outside New England — clear of nor'easters, coastal flooding, and the regional grid. If Boston itself has a bad day, your recovery copy is somewhere that doesn't.

  • Low-latency local backup for fast, everyday restores
  • A second copy in a second region well outside New England — clear of nor'easters, coastal flooding, and the regional grid
  • Immutable, ransomware-resistant copies — encryption can't reach them
  • Recovery tested on a schedule, so you know it actually works

How it works

A modern take on the 3-2-1 rule — fast locally, safe geographically, provably recoverable.

Local-fast layer

A nearby copy so routine restores — a file, a mailbox, a VM — happen in minutes, not hours dragging data across the internet.

Geo-separated DR copy

An automatic second copy in a second region well outside New England — clear of nor'easters, coastal flooding, and the regional grid, so a regional outage, storm, or grid failure can't take out both.

Immutable & encrypted

Copies are write-once and encrypted, so ransomware can't alter or delete them even if it reaches your network.

Tested recovery

We run recovery drills and give you real numbers — how long a restore takes (RTO) and how much data you'd lose (RPO).

Why Boston businesses keep a copy out of state

New England takes serious winter — the 2015 season buried Boston in record snow and paralyzed the region for weeks, and nor'easters and coastal flooding arrive every year. Keeping a recovery copy in the same region as your business isn't real protection.

A backup that only lives in Boston shares every risk your business does. Replicating to a second region well outside New England — clear of nor'easters, coastal flooding, and the regional grid is what turns “backup” into “disaster recovery” — and it's the part most local providers quietly skip.

Backup & Disaster Recovery in Boston — frequently asked questions

How do you protect us against a nor'easter or major snowstorm?

Backups run locally for fast restores and are automatically replicated to a second region well outside New England — clear of nor'easters, coastal flooding, and the regional grid. So a storm or outage can't take out both your systems and your recovery copy.

Why keep a backup in a separate region?

Because New England takes serious winter — the 2015 season buried Boston in record snow and paralyzed the region for weeks, and nor'easters and coastal flooding arrive every year. Keeping a recovery copy in the same region as your business isn't real protection. A recovery copy in a second region well outside New England — clear of nor'easters, coastal flooding, and the regional grid survives events that could take out anything hosted locally.

How fast can you restore?

Everyday restores come from the fast local copy in minutes. Full disaster recovery from the second region is measured and agreed up front as your RTO — no surprises on the worst day.

Is the backup protected from ransomware?

Yes. Copies are immutable and encrypted — write-once, so even ransomware that reaches your network can't alter or delete them.

Do you test recovery, or just take backups?

We test. Untested backups fail exactly when you need them. We run recovery drills and report real RTO/RPO numbers so you know where you stand.

What about a regional disaster — a major storm, flood, or grid failure?

Exactly the scenario this is built for. New England takes serious winter — the 2015 season buried Boston in record snow and paralyzed the region for weeks, and nor'easters and coastal flooding arrive every year. Keeping a recovery copy in the same region as your business isn't real protection. So your recovery copy lives a second region well outside New England — clear of nor'easters, coastal flooding, and the regional grid, clear of whatever takes the region down.
