Backup & Disaster Recovery in New York City

Fast local backups so a restore takes minutes, automatically copied to a second region well outside the New York metro — clear of coastal flooding, storm surge, and the regional grid. So ransomware, a failed server, or a regional grid or weather event doesn't take your New York City 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 York has seen how fragile it can be — Superstorm Sandy flooded Lower Manhattan in 2012 and took data centers offline when their basements filled with water, blackouts have hit Manhattan in heat waves, and nor'easters and blizzards arrive every winter. Keeping production and recovery in the same coastal grid isn't real protection. So the second thing we do is automatically replicate your backup to a second region well outside the New York metro — clear of coastal flooding, storm surge, and the regional grid. If New York City 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 the New York metro — clear of coastal flooding, storm surge, and the regional grid
  • Immutable, ransomware-resistant copies — encryption can't reach them
  • Recovery tested on a schedule, so you know it actually works

New York City industries we serve

Nowhere packs this much regulated, high-stakes work into so little space. We lead every engagement with the obligation that matters to you.

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 the New York metro — clear of coastal flooding, storm surge, 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 New York City businesses keep a copy out of state

New York has seen how fragile it can be — Superstorm Sandy flooded Lower Manhattan in 2012 and took data centers offline when their basements filled with water, blackouts have hit Manhattan in heat waves, and nor'easters and blizzards arrive every winter. Keeping production and recovery in the same coastal grid isn't real protection.

A backup that only lives in New York City shares every risk your business does. Replicating to a second region well outside the New York metro — clear of coastal flooding, storm surge, 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 New York City — frequently asked questions

How do you protect us against a storm or flood like Sandy?

Backups run locally for fast restores and are automatically replicated to a second region well outside the New York metro — clear of coastal flooding, storm surge, and the regional grid. So a storm, flood, or blackout can't take out both your systems and your recovery copy, the way Sandy took out flooded data centers.

Why keep a backup in a separate region?

Because New York has seen how fragile it can be — Superstorm Sandy flooded Lower Manhattan in 2012 and took data centers offline when their basements filled with water, blackouts have hit Manhattan in heat waves, and nor'easters and blizzards arrive every winter. Keeping production and recovery in the same coastal grid isn't real protection. A recovery copy in a second region well outside the New York metro — clear of coastal flooding, storm surge, 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 York has seen how fragile it can be — Superstorm Sandy flooded Lower Manhattan in 2012 and took data centers offline when their basements filled with water, blackouts have hit Manhattan in heat waves, and nor'easters and blizzards arrive every winter. Keeping production and recovery in the same coastal grid isn't real protection. So your recovery copy lives a second region well outside the New York metro — clear of coastal flooding, storm surge, and the regional grid, clear of whatever takes the region down.
