Next Generation Disaster Recovery and IT Operations: Rapid, Flexible, Just-in-Time Continuous Operations Service Delivery

Xtium CO™ IaaS ensures rapid recovery in the event of a scheduled outage or a disaster by safe-storing your production systems and servers within Xtium's secure, seismically-neutral Tier 1 datacenters.

Eliminating hardware investment and compatibility issues for the recovery, Xtium CO™ IaaS maintains a digital image of your IT systems, including OS, applications and mission-critical information.  Testable at will, the safe-stored digital image of your IT systems is continuously refreshed via your private network connection with patches, upgrades and updates.  In the event of a scheduled outage or a disaster, your IT systems are rapidly turned-on at the Xtium CO™ datacenter(s) and your IT users and customers can be re-routed to continue work as usual – with little downtime, if any.



To provide most flexibility, Xtium can manually capture the digital image of your IT systems and keep it near-on-demand within Xtium CO™ virtual recovery environment.  At the time of need, the virtual environment is activated prior to recovery.

    • Recovery Point: last Image Update
    • Recovery Time: up to 4 hours
    • Note: Time estimates vary with digital image size

Xtium's proactive, virtualized recovery environment offers all the advantages of already configured and staged environment identical to your existing IT systems – saving you a significant time and steps during the critical recovery process.  Moreover, using Xtium CO™ IaaS recovery facilities may be effectively used for routine IT maintenance, with little, if any downtime. That is, you and your IT systems users and customers can use your IT systems operated out of Xtium's CO™ IaaS, while your primary site is down for maintenance.
