Service Overview
Backup services are designed to provide recoverability for loss of any data stored within the UCO OIT server environment. The cost of backup is built into the cost of services that require backup. System backups are performed at least daily to provide the highest frequency of backups and result in only a 24 hour data loss and allows up to 8 weeks to recover the deleted data.
File Restoration Service is provided to the University of Central Oklahoma at a no cost. This backs up all the university data that is stored centrally including the following:
- Servers in the data center
- File shares on Central, P, and Apps
- Other systems designated by senior leadership
UCO OIT uses an enterprise backup solution that provides the ability to backup and then de-dupe the data to only story one copy of the backup data for eight weeks to greatly reduce the space requirements. The environment runs on 3 servers and over 400 TB of storage. The environment is split between the Primary data center and the disaster recovery site to provide safe keeping of all the data. The de-duplication system is saving about 95% of disk space greatly reducing the physical requirement of storage needed.
