Netron Provides Cross-Cloud Platform Integration Services to Enhance Business Resilience

The unstable international situation due to the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitics, natural disasters, and wars, along with a changing industrial environment, poses severe impacts on business operations, information security, and customer relationships. If on-premises or cloud data is damaged, leading to service interruption, businesses will face significant losses, especially large multinational corporations and companies with overseas plants. Therefore, businesses and government organizations should accelerate the deployment of Business Continuity Plans (BCP) and early planning of Disaster Recovery (DR) strategies. Today, the cross-cloud platform integration consultant service provider, Netron, launched a new cross-cloud platform service for **“International”** backup and data replication, helping Taiwanese businesses maintain operations through backups in other countries, even in the event of war or natural disaster. Netron consultants, who hold AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure architect certifications as well as CISSP security certifications, can provide tailor-made, one-stop cross-cloud **“International”** backup and data replication services based on clients' budgets and locations. This reduces the risks of service interruptions and security issues on a single cloud platform or in the same region, ensuring business continuity, cost efficiency, and data security for enterprises.

 

Backup and data replication services are crucial components of a company’s Business Continuity Plan (BCP). They help businesses quickly restore normal services and data during cyberattacks, disasters, or failures. An IDC survey shows that 40% of companies experience an average of 4 hours of downtime per year due to system outages, which negatively impacts revenue, customer relationships, and brand image. Gartner estimates that each hour of downtime could result in losses ranging from $420,000 to $1.4 million, depending on the company's size and industry. Moreover, the National Archives and Records Administration pointed out that 50% of businesses that lose their operational data close down immediately, and 93% of businesses that lose their data for more than 10 days close within a year. According to Datto's data, the cost of ransomware-related downtime increased by 200% in the past year; however, 96% of companies with a disaster recovery solution were able to fully recover after a data loss event. This highlights the importance of backup and disaster recovery services for business operations.

Cross-Cloud Platform International Backup and Data Replication Enhancing Business Digital Resilience

 

International backup services and data replication are key components of business sustainability and information security across various industries. In recent years, concerns about the adequacy of traditional on-premises and domestic backup solutions have grown due to factors such as the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitics, and power sources. In response to ESG regulations, carbon taxes, and other issues, manufacturing and related industries have begun incorporating cloud-based international backup and data replication solutions into their operations. According to domestic and international research institutions and backup solution providers, 92% of Taiwanese businesses perform data backups, but only around 46% deploy international backup services. The financial industry has the highest implementation rate, while SMEs have the lowest. Meanwhile, the Financial Supervisory Commission has announced that it will allow financial institutions to use public clouds. Netron encourages financial institutions to plan their disaster recovery (DR) strategies and deploy international backup and data replication solutions as soon as possible.

 

"Cost, backup method, data security, and recovery are the top concerns for companies when performing backup and replication. Especially for SMEs, the technology and costs involved in system/service backup are often unaffordable," said Netron CEO, Shawn Lee. "In modern businesses, operations are closely tied to IT system stability. For businesses in geopolitically sensitive areas like Taiwan, international system and data backup is the most pressing matter for ensuring continuous business operations. Netron hopes to enhance business resilience for its clients through new cross-cloud platform international backup and data replication services, leveraging cloud technology as a key business strategy to accelerate digital transformation with optimal cost efficiency."

 

Modern backup strategies follow the "3-2-1 principle," which recommends keeping at least three copies of data, using two different forms of storage, and storing one copy offsite, with international cloud backup being the best option. Backing up services and data within the same cloud platform raises concerns about Single Point of Failure (SPOF), cloud provider monopolization, and multi-cloud transfer risks. According to a 2019 Gartner survey, most organizations prefer using multiple cloud service providers, with 81% of respondents planning to use two or more cloud services.

Benefits of adopting cross-cloud platform backup and replication services:

 

  • Increased service availability: Customers can perform service backup across different cloud platforms. If one platform experiences a failure or attack, services can quickly switch to another platform to ensure continuous operations.

  • Enhanced data security: Customers can back up data across different cloud platforms. In the event of data loss or theft on one platform, data can be restored from another platform, ensuring data integrity.

  • Cost and time savings: Customers can take advantage of price and performance differences between cloud platforms to choose the most suitable platform for backup, saving costs and time.

  • Increased flexibility and freedom: Customers have the flexibility to choose different cloud platforms for backup according to their needs and preferences, providing greater flexibility and freedom.
