Cloud backup service for disaster recovery
What is Closet?
Closet is a backup service for disaster recovery using the cloud. A small palm-sized device (server) that we install at your business office backs up data to the cloud via the Internet. Even if business data is lost due to a disaster, data can be restored from data stored in the cloud. Closet is the perfect service for those who are thinking about BCP measures for their business and those who think that their existing backup is not enough.

Case study
Why did you decide to consider our Closet (cloud service)?
Since the Great East Japan Earthquake on March 11, 2011, the importance of the Business Continuity Plan (BCP) has been reaffirmed.
The BCP is a plan to pursue the continuation of important businesses or the resumption of business in the shortest possible time after a disaster. Daifuku Industries always has a server that stores important data such as sales management and salary relations unique to the company and data on design, management and submission materials of public works held at each site, as well as hardware and electronic media failure. In the event of a backup, we were continuously considering how to handle large backups.
In a service that is considered to cost 1GB = 10,000 yen for data recovery that we considered earlier, restoring several TB of data would cost tens of millions of dollars in sudden costs. I was The BCP was re-recognized after the earthquake, and the company took notice anew.
It was Eastback's cloud service.
Please tell me the deciding factor of the introduction of Closet.
While many cloud services are provided, backup and data recovery and support are substantial.
In addition, the introduction cost is low, the monthly running cost is low, and Amazon is used for the data storage location, so the security of the backup data is high, so the decision was made.
How about actually introducing Closet?
The best thing is that the central management server is small, It is good that Eastbuck goes. The monthly bill is surprisingly low and we use it with confidence. I think it is good that even if the hardware to be backed up increases, the cost will not be affected so much.Daily backups are performed at night, so there is no hindrance to operations and the status of backups can be easily checked, so I am relieved. Another benefit is that you don't need to worry about backups after installation, so you can focus on your daily work.
