Liquid Web, a prominent provider of cloud hosting and managed services for small to midsize businesses, has recently introduced a new disaster recovery solution. This offering is powered by Acronis and is specifically designed to protect VMware workloads. With this addition, Liquid Web expands its portfolio of business continuity solutions, providing an enterprise-grade disaster recovery option that features a predictable monthly pricing model.
As businesses increasingly grapple with the risks of data loss and operational disruptions, the demand for effective disaster recovery solutions has surged. The Acronis Disaster Recovery service enables automated failover, secure data replication, and rapid recovery—surpassing the capabilities of conventional backup solutions. It is particularly beneficial for organizations operating in VMware environments, allowing for smooth recovery during system failures or unexpected downtimes.
The costs associated with downtime are escalating; a recent report revealed that in more than 60% of outage incidents, total losses surpassed $100,000—a 39% jump from 2019. The Uptime Institute further notes that 16% of disruptions now incur costs exceeding $1 million. These statistics illustrate the multifaceted repercussions of downtime, including not just financial losses but also lost productivity, regulatory fines, and damaged reputations.
Liquid Web’s disaster recovery solution has been crafted with high-demand business settings in mind. Integrated with Acronis Cloud, it provides automated failover capabilities for VMware systems, enables non-disruptive testing via a self-service portal, and ensures end-to-end data encryption. Clients can tailor their Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPO) to meet specific operational requirements.
The solution includes features like multi-site VPN support through IPsec and site-to-site VPN connections, facilitating uninterrupted operations across diverse business environments. Organizations with compliance mandates under regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, or SOX benefit from security measures that are compliant throughout the recovery procedure.
This service caters to various scenarios, including businesses managing existing VMware infrastructure, those utilizing Acronis Cyber Backup, and firms that need swift failover with DNS control. It is particularly well-suited for organizations with stringent RTOs or those seeking solutions that transcend basic backup plans.
Liquid Web emphasizes that this new service is part of its commitment to simplifying enterprise-level disaster recovery by distinguishing itself from competitors that usually charge based on usage or impose unpredictable fees. Their Acronis Disaster Recovery is available at a flat rate, providing businesses with clear and predictable costs.
The fixed-rate pricing approach aims to alleviate the uncertainty often linked with disaster recovery services. David Eblen, the Senior Vice President of Product Innovation & Delivery at Liquid Web, expressed the company’s dedication to removing implementation barriers by offering transparent costs and personalized deployment assistance through a ‘white-glove’ onboarding process.
Businesses can acquire the Acronis Disaster Recovery solution alongside Liquid Web’s new VMware hosting services or as an add-on to existing accounts. Liquid Web encourages organizations to consult with its solutions experts to assess their disaster recovery needs and to ensure alignment with their overall business continuity strategies.
