Copy Assure and IBM I Workloads
In the fast-evolving landscape of cyber threats, ensuring the integrity and availability of critical business systems is paramount, especially in financial institutions. With regulatory frameworks like the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) and Bank of England’s CBEST and CQUEST initiatives, organisations are increasingly focused on robust disaster recovery and cyber resilience strategies. Chilli IT’s Copy Assure service, specifically designed for IBM I workloads, offers an effective solution by providing continuous testing and validation of immutable snapshots.
IBM I systems, integral to many financial institutions, require specialised care due to their integrated database and operating system architecture. Copy Assure automates the recovery process, ensuring that every snapshot taken is validated and ready for rapid restoration if needed. This service goes beyond simple data backup, offering a proactive approach that tests the usability of snapshots, identifies potential issues before they affect operations, and provides detailed recovery reports to guide decision-making.
By integrating this service with existing IBM storage technologies, Chilli IT helps organisations not only meet regulatory requirements but also significantly reduce the risk of data loss and system downtime. The service includes a user-friendly GUI for monitoring and reporting, allowing clients to easily track the status of their backups and immutables. Furthermore, ongoing developments, such as advanced machine learning integration and enhanced analytics, ensure that Copy Assure remains at the cutting edge of cyber resilience.
