It is essential for an enterprise to be aware of any potential weaknesses in their current Disaster Avoidance and Cyber Security posture. Artilus performs assessments to identify the risk status of your current strategy. The information you receive from this assessment will either give you the peace of mind you need or provide you with the necessary information and access to professionals who can help guide your further decision making.
Backup solutions must be impervious to ransomware and other malintent viruses. Unfortunately, not all backup solutions are. Artilus solutions are delivered in a secure manner that will isolate your backup data from being accessible to the ever-changing ransomware of today.
It is equally important that all critical data be encrypted at rest and in transit. Encryption imparts the peace of mind that a third party will be unable to access your sensitive data if ever compromised. Artilus can assist you in accomplishing this level of encryption on your assets.
Planning for disaster scenarios involves key stakeholders and discussions around operational necessities. RPOs and RTOs should be established for all resources and services critical to enterprise functionality. Once established, an organization can further expand upon those plans and leverage public cloud or co-location, ISP redundancies, network resilience, backups, and other elements crucial to obtaining the needed uptime. Additionally, with a plan intact, stakeholders can budget for goals to be accomplished.
Data centers and core networking can be designed in multiple ways and levels of understanding. Not all delivered solutions are the same. Experience is necessary to leverage virtualization, redundant routes, and technologies, including but not limited to, SD-WAN, VRRP, and BGP, to deliver the physical and virtual contingencies to your most critical operations. Artilus engineers have that experience and can offer you the support you need.

Artilus works with your team to develop RTOs (Recovery Time Objectives) and RPOs (Recovery Point Objectives) that align with the organization’s overall requirements. Our specialists will consult, design and implement the necessary networking, systems, platforms, and backup strategies required to effectively meet your unique contingency needs.
Whether hosting services locally, connecting to the cloud or providing an aggregation point for larger networks, on-premise datacenters are still an important part of the overall technology landscape for many. Artilus has years of experience evaluating organizations varying requirements, anticipating future needs, designing and delivering resilient, fault-tolerant Data Center Networks.
Networking throughout an organization is critical, with modern applications requiring high bandwidth, low latency connectivity. To deliver this connectivity, Artilus leverages performant multi-gigabit switching, and thoughtful design concepts including high bandwidth port-channeled uplinks to even higher bandwidth central aggregation switching points.
High performance is not the only important part of networking. Artilus understands that a datacenter network must also be reliable and resilient. Fault tolerant designs including multiple uplinks and intelligent dynamic routing can keep the majority of a network functioning, even when inevitable equipment failures occur.
In its essence, virtualization is cloud computing. Virtualization eliminates a 1:1 compute model in which the dependency of one piece of hardware is needed per OS. This antiquated model has a single point of failure that often causes productivity disturbances. With virtualization, Artilus consults, designs and implements desktop and server solutions managed over an underlying resilient virtual platform, such as HCI or IaaS, significantly and effectively avoiding such disturbances while also providing a reduction in TCO.
In growing companies, resilient and scalable compute and storage is a necessity and can be achieved in all cloud models.
In the IaaS model (public cloud), organizations have the ability to scale and reduce on demand. With private data centers, a Hyper-converged infrastructure (private cloud) provides scalability by purchasing more appliances and licensing. Both of these platforms centralize management of compute and storage into a single interface.
When developing a recommendation, Artilus specialists take into consideration an organization’s specific needs including, but not limited to their goals and budget.
You can realize the benefits of analytics, ease of compliance, unified delivery, on demand scalability and flexibility, and AI driven operations and insights.
One of the biggest and most commonly used cloud computing platforms, Software as a Service (SaaS) is essentially a method of delivering applications and software over the internet using a subscription model as opposed to a local network. Using multi-tenant architecture (multiple users accessing the same resource pool in the same environment), each user can secure their own data in their own dedicated space. Examples of common SaaS include Microsoft Office, Salesforce, QuickBooks or Google Suite.
The benefit of using SaaS is its efficiency in cost, maintenance and management. As an all-encompassing service, you will always have the newest version of software with the necessary updates and licensing. SaaS provides a built-in layer to your disaster avoidance strategy by offering redundancy. Additionally, SaaS applications allow for scalability on demand and can be accessed from anywhere.
Contact an Artilus specialist today to see how you can leverage SaaS applications.

Leverages the right combination of Private and Public to deliver the best outcome for your business demands.
Many organizations operate in a hybrid framework by utilizing publicly hosted applications. SaaS (software as a service) applications such as M365 or QuickBooks are a standard practice and business model of such application delivery. The benefits of continuous development, patch delivery and availability make it easy to identify the upside of a Hybrid Cloud platform. However, for some, the design of their Hybrid model extends across multiple Data Center Platforms.
For example: A Medical institution may want to collocate their EMR application and data for visibility of security controls, maximum customization, and ease of accessibility to other offices. They determine that a local Data Center meets their required needs. They could further leverage Public or Private cloud for Disaster Avoidance and Software as a Service offerings, as well as their desktop and server infrastructure.
Pros
– The combination of services offers the best of both worlds.
– A Hybrid model provides the most flexibility and management of costs.
– Distance-working arrangements will not pose a risk to the company’s services as a Hybrid Cloud platform can bring mobility and globalization to the business without losing its competitiveness.
– A Hybrid model can accommodate highly dynamic workloads.
Cons
– It can be complex to implement and difficult to maintain depending on the architecture.
– It could be difficult to ensure uniform user authentication and access protocols across multiple sites. This could cause complications with compliance or lead to vulnerabilities as it is challenging for network managers and system administrators to meticulously monitor the network.
– More security controls are necessary due to increased complexities.
– Because private and public clouds have fundamental differences, Compatibility and Data Integration could be challenging when utilizing the hybrid cloud model. You need to know what the files are compatible with.
POPULAR USES: Hybrid cloud is utilized daily by mostly everyone in one way or another. Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Learning Management Systems (LMS), high-performance computing, massive data storage and management.
