San Marcos, TX · Data Protection
Fast local backups so a restore takes minutes, automatically copied to a second region well outside Texas — off the ERCOT grid and clear of Hill Country flooding. So ransomware, a failed server, or a regional grid or weather event doesn't take your San Marcos 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
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. San Marcos sits in Flash Flood Alley, where the Balcones Escarpment turns heavy rain into fast-rising water — the Blanco River flood of 2015 is the local benchmark, not a hypothetical. Texas also runs its own power grid (ERCOT), which Winter Storm Uri showed can fail for days. Between the two, a recovery copy that never leaves the state isn't protection. So the second thing we do is automatically replicate your backup to a second region well outside Texas — off the ERCOT grid and clear of Hill Country flooding. If San Marcos itself has a bad day, your recovery copy is somewhere that doesn't.

A university town, a distribution corridor, and a tourism economy in one place. We lead with whichever set of rules governs your business.
A modern take on the 3-2-1 rule — fast locally, safe geographically, provably recoverable.
A nearby copy so routine restores — a file, a mailbox, a VM — happen in minutes, not hours dragging data across the internet.
An automatic second copy in a second region well outside Texas — off the ERCOT grid and clear of Hill Country flooding, so a regional outage, storm, or grid failure can't take out both.
Copies are write-once and encrypted, so ransomware can't alter or delete them even if it reaches your network.
We run recovery drills and give you real numbers — how long a restore takes (RTO) and how much data you'd lose (RPO).

A backup that only lives in San Marcos shares every risk your business does. Replicating to a second region well outside Texas — off the ERCOT grid and clear of Hill Country flooding is what turns “backup” into “disaster recovery” — and it's the part most local providers quietly skip.

On-site support along the I-35 corridor and into the Hill Country, dispatched from our San Marcos office.
We keep a recovery copy in a region well outside Texas, off the ERCOT grid and out of the Hill Country flood plain, and we test restores on a schedule rather than assuming they work. On site, we plan for power loss — protected shutdown for critical hardware and failover for connectivity — because the grid here has a demonstrated failure mode.
Because San Marcos sits in Flash Flood Alley, where the Balcones Escarpment turns heavy rain into fast-rising water — the Blanco River flood of 2015 is the local benchmark, not a hypothetical. Texas also runs its own power grid (ERCOT), which Winter Storm Uri showed can fail for days. Between the two, a recovery copy that never leaves the state isn't protection. A recovery copy in a second region well outside Texas — off the ERCOT grid and clear of Hill Country flooding survives events that could take out anything hosted locally.
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.
Yes. Copies are immutable and encrypted — write-once, so even ransomware that reaches your network can't alter or delete them.
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.
Exactly the scenario this is built for. San Marcos sits in Flash Flood Alley, where the Balcones Escarpment turns heavy rain into fast-rising water — the Blanco River flood of 2015 is the local benchmark, not a hypothetical. Texas also runs its own power grid (ERCOT), which Winter Storm Uri showed can fail for days. Between the two, a recovery copy that never leaves the state isn't protection. So your recovery copy lives a second region well outside Texas — off the ERCOT grid and clear of Hill Country flooding, clear of whatever takes the region down.
