# World Backup Day
By [**Incline IT**](https://www.incline-it.com/blog/author/incline-it) on 29 Mar 2022
## World Backup Day
## Backups are certainly important but combining this with a disaster recovery plan ensures full protection and having a strategy for both is essential to maintaining your systems and IT infrastructures.
## DRaaS
If disaster strikes, protecting your business from the impacts of system failure is crucial in order to prevent significant disruption.
Even the most sophisticated IT systems can fail occasionally, causing loss to data and network access.
This can have a negative impact on productivity, reputation, and customer trust.
Incline-IT offer Disaster Recovery as a Service which protects your business using leading-edge technology. Read this blog to learn more.
## What is a Backup?
Even when following all security best practices, there is always a risk, however small, that your systems will become compromised and potentially unrecoverable.
One way of ensuring reliability of your systems is through backing up data to the cloud.
In information technology, a backup refers to the copying and archiving of computer data and files. This allows you to retrieve the original if they are damaged or lost.
The primary purpose is to protect your business from significant data loss in the incident of a threat such as system failure or file corruption.
## Disaster Recovery as a Service
Backups are certainly important but combining this with a disaster recovery plan ensures full protection and having a strategy for both is essential to maintaining your systems and IT infrastructures.
Incline-IT is not burdened by datacentres, ageing kit, and outdated ways of working. Our cloud specialists coupled with our transparent, partnership-led approach makes us truly unique.
We offer Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS), a cloud computing service model that uses leading-edge technology. Our specialists can replicate your data and networks in real-time, continuously backing up and syncing a live copy to the cloud.
In the event of an IT disaster, such as a natural disaster, you can continue to access your server from the cloud environment instead of from the affected physical servers. This enables you to regain access and functionality to IT infrastructure after a disaster, insuring your organisation against significant disruption.
## What are the benefits of Disaster Recovery as a Service?
- Maintain productivity – you can continue business as usual while IT systems are fixed
- Minimise data loss - data loss can be a common experience of computer users. Backing up data enables you to recover data after its loss, be it by data deletion or corruption
- Peace of mind - protect your business from the impacts of systems failure, such as cyberattacks, power outages and equipment failures
- Reduce costs - you only pay for your fully provisioned disaster environment in the event of an outage
- Reduce downtime - if disaster strikes, you can run your systems from the cloud within hours, with near-zero data loss.
