Backup Business Data4 Strategies To Backup Business Data

 

Data loss can be a serious problem for businesses of all sizes. By losing files and all critical data, means the business will lose time and money to restore it. This will not only bother enterprises to run the business well but it will also experience difficulties in continuing its innovation. 

Therefore, a solution is needed to protect all critical data from its loss. Cloud backup can be a good choice for enterprises to prevent data loss. By using Cloud Backup, enterprises not only replicate their data when a disaster occurs but also business continuity can be saved from all the risks. 

However, simply using Cloud Backup without any consideration is not enough. You need to consider IT business needs before deciding to use a cloud backup service to protect your data. In this article, we compiled 4 strategies for you to backup business data in the cloud. 

1. Data Recovery Needs

Cloud Backup can be a solution to protect and backup business data from its loss. However, before deciding to use cloud backup, it will be better if you consider what data you want to backup. If you want to protect all data in an IT environment system, you can use a comprehensive Cloud Backup. But, if you only want to protect services such as databases on Microsoft Exchange, you can only use Cloud Backup for specific mailboxes.

2. Understand that hypervisor data backup will not be sufficient

Virtualization may offer a variety of capabilities, including the ability to perform backups at the hypervisor level of a virtual machine (VM). However, this type of backup is just restoring your recovery to the VM level. Therefore, backup service in a VM operating system is needed rather than just on a virtualization host. This aims to get the organization for the best recovery option.

3. Use local protection systems as the first line of defense

Public cloud services may offer you unlimited servers and storage resources. However, while the public cloud is a critical step for securing business data, you should also consider backups on a local system. By using local resources to connect to systems and data enable it to produce the best performance as well.

4. Use cloud backup as a second choice

Cloud Backup storage can be a second attempt for organizations to back up business data when a disaster strikes. By using this technology, you can prioritize servers and data that require offsite disaster recovery protection. So, when an IT system experiences a natural disaster or human error, the data loss can be replaced by data that has been replicated in Cloud Backup. Therefore, it will not disrupt business continuity.

Tips Memilih Cloud Service Provider

Tips Memilih Cloud Service Provider

 

Pada masa pandemi ini, keberadaan cloud service provider menjadi populer bagi pengusaha dari berbagai industry. Hal ini dapat dikatakan mengingat pemanfaatan teknologi cloud yang bersifat fleksibel dan efisien. Tak hanya itu, cloud juga memungkinkan pengusaha untuk bekerja dari mana pun dan kapan pun. Sehingga tak mengherankan, jika teknologi satu ini mampu memudahkan organisasi agar tetap bisa memperlangsungkan bisnisnya di masa yang tak menentu ini.

Jika Anda baru akan mulai beralih menggunakan cloud computing, pastinya Anda akan bertanya-tanya bagaimana cara memilih penyedia layanan cloud yang berkualitas?

Dalam memilih layanan cloud, berbagai aspek tentunya perlu diperhatikan oleh Anda. Meski saat ini banyak cloud service provider yang menawarkan layanan cloud computing dengan beragam keunggulan, namun ada baiknya Anda perlu mempertimbangkan hal tersebut dengan cermat dan berhati-hati demi menemukan cloud hosting yang berkualitas untuk organisasi. Sebab jika tidak sesuai, hal ini akan memakan waktu dan biaya bisnis secara cuma-cuma.

Untuk menghindari hal tersebut, simak  6 Tips Memilih Cloud Service Provider yang patut anda pertimbangkan:

  1.     Kebutuhan Organisasi

Sebagai pengguna Anda tentunya harus memiliki tujuan dalam beralih menggunakan cloud computing. Jika Anda tidak ingin menghabiskan waktu dan uang demi layanan cloud yang tidak sesuai, maka Anda perlu mengetahui lebih dalam kebutuhan dan ekspektasi Anda guna mencapai penghematan biaya. Untuk itu, Anda perlu membuat daftar tujuan terlebih dahulu, sebelum akhirnya menentukan penyedia cloud computing.

  1.     Performa Server dan Jaringan

Salah satu yang perlu diperhatikan pengusaha sebelum menggunakan cloud provider adalah dengan memperhatikan performa server atau jaringan.  Jika Anda ingin mendapatkan akses cepat ke aplikasi yang tersimpan di cloud, Anda perlu tahu lokasi aplikasi yang disimpan di end user, jaringan pada pusat data cloud, serta kecepatan antara lapisan server dengan kapasitas yang digunakan. Sehingga, Anda dapat menghitung performa cloud service provider sebelum Anda menggunakannya. 

  1.     Keamanan Data

Jika Anda hendak beralih menggunakan cloud service provider, Anda perlu memperhatikan keamanan data yang ditawarkan. Apakah cloud tersebut disertai firewalls, anti virus, multifactor user authentication, enkripsi data, dan audit keamanan secara rutin atau tidak. Hal ini sangat penting dilakukan untuk menghindari terjadinya serangan siber. Tak hanya itu, Anda juga bisa mendiskusikan mengenai kompetensi sistem disaster recovery centernya apabila hal ini dibutuhkan demi menghindari hilangnya data akibat bencana.

  1.     Service Level Agreement (SLA) 

Beberapa layanan cloud menawarkan Service Level Agreement (SLA) yang tinggi kepada pelanggan. Hal ini tentunya dilakukan untuk memberikan pengalaman layanan cloud yang terbaik. Namun pada banyak kasus, SLA hanya dihitung ketika sistem layanan cloud mengalami kegagalan, bukan saat ketersediaan layanan sedang berjalan. Untuk itu, Anda perlu menemukan cloud service provider yang dapat menjelaskan rencananya dalam memenuhi SLA kepada pelanggan untuk memastikan kompetensi layanan cloud.  

  1.     Memonitor Layanan dan Keamanan

Jika Anda beralih menggunakan layanan cloud, seluruh sistem yang Anda pergunakan akan dimonitor secara berkala oleh penyedia layanan. Penyedia biasanya melakukan cara ini tidak hanya oleh sistem tetapi juga oleh pusat operasional yang siap membantu. Untuk itu, Anda perlu bertanya apakah penyedia layanan juga akan memonitor terkait keamanan siber, serta pastikan pula jika Anda memperoleh laporan bulanan terhadap layanan yang digunakan. Sehingga, Anda bisa memastikan transparansi layanan yang diberikan oleh cloud service provider.

  1.     Menjamin Keamanan Data Penggunanya

Sebagai sebuah perusahaan penyedia layanan cloud computing, Anda juga perlu tahu apakah penyedia menjamin keamanan data pengguna dengan baik. Untuk itu, Anda perlu memastikan apakah cloud service provider tersebut memiliki sertifikasi platform teknologi hingga sertifikasi dan standar ISO/IEC yang dapat menjamin keamanan data penggunanya. Sehingga, data Anda tidak akan mudah disalahgunakan oleh pihak luar.

Zettagrid Indonesia merupakan salah satu penyedia layanan cloud computing untuk solusi perusahaan anda di saat menghadapi situasi pandemi yang tidak menentu ini.

Zettagrid Indonesia Sponsori BMWCCI OMR Dan MOMRC di ISSOM 2020

ISSOM 2020

Team Zettagrid Indonesia di Ajang Balapan BMW One Make Race Round 1 ISSOM 2020

Sejak pandemic COVID 19 melanda, berbagai acara balap nyaris gagal karena terkendala oleh izin pemerintah. Salah satunya adalah kejuaraan balap touring Indonesia Sentul Series of Motorsport (ISSOM) 2020. Setelah berkali-kali mengalami revisi jadwal, ISSOM yang seharusnya digelar pada 12 Juli 2020 lalu akhirnya berhasil diadakan pada 29 dan 30 Agustus 2020 di Sirkuit Sentul, Bogor. Dengan ditetapkan sebanyak 6 seri, ajang balapan ini akan diberlangsungkan hingga awal tahun 2021.

ISSOM yang digelar pada tahun ini pun terasa lebih berbeda bagi para pegiat motorsport. Selain karena menerapkan aturan protokol COVID-19, acara balap ini juga tidak menyelenggarakan kelas kejuaraan nasional (kerjurnas). Adapun, beberapa kelas unggulan lainnya nyaris tidak terselenggara akibat banyaknya promotor yang tidak berani menggelar balapan.

Namun demikian, geliat motorsport tetap bergema karena beberapa promotor seperti BMWCCI One Make Race (BMWCCI OMR), Mercedes One Make Race Championship (MOMRC), Indonesia Retro Race, serta beberapa kelas yang dijalankan oleh Sentul ikut memeriahkan kontestasi.  Sehingga, antusiasme peserta sama sekali tidak berkurang.

Zettagrid sebagai layanan cloud infrastructure lokal di Indonesia tidak hanya turut menjadi peserta dalam kompetisi ISSOM 2020. Namun juga, Zettagrid Indonesia turut sponsori BMWCCI OMR dan MOMRC dalam kontestasi tersebut. Berikut beberapa hal tentang kelas balap BMWCCI OMR dan MOMRC di ISSOM pada 30 Agustus 2020 lalu.

  1.     BMWCCI One Make Race
Podium BMW OMR Round One ISSOM 2020

Tim Zettagrid Raih Podium Pertama di BMW One Make Race (OMR) 2020

BMWCCI One Make Race (OMR) merupakan salah satu kelas balapan yang cocok bagi pembalap pemula. Hal ini bisa dilihat dari visi BMWCCI yang bertujuan untuk mewadahi para anggota dengan memiliki minat terhadap motorsport. Untuk itu, Aditya Kurniawan selaku Ketua Pelaksana BMWCCI OMR berharap dapat mencetak bibit baru pembalap tidak hanya di tingkat nasional, melainkan juga pada tingkat internasional.

Pada kompetisi ISSOM 2020 lalu, BMWCCI OMR turut dimeriahkan oleh 9 peserta yang telah bertanding selama 10 putaran. Dari pertandingan tersebut bahkan memunculkan peserta baru, Viktor Herryanto, sebagai peraih podium juara pertama dalam kategori Rookie dan Reza Kertadjaja sebagai juara satu di kategori Advance. Tak hanya itu, selain turut dimeriahkan oleh 9 peserta lain dan didukung oleh Zettagrid Indonesia, BMWCCI OMR juga turut disponsori oleh Eneos dan Michellin.

  1.     Mercedes One Make Race Championship

Selain untuk menyalurkan minat terhadap balapan, Mercedes One Make Race Championship (MOMRC) ini juga menjadi tempatnya para pecinta mobil brand Mercedes-Benz. Meski dikhususkan bagi para pengguna Mercedes-Benz, namun ajang yang telah bergulir sejak tahun 2009 ini terus memberi tontonan menarik bagi para pegiat motorsport. 

Beberapa waktu lalu, MOMRC memeriahkan acara ISSOM 2020 dengan menghadirkan 10 peserta. Setelah melakukan 10 putaran, podium juara 1 pun turut diraih oleh Deo Popong. Tak hanya itu, kemeriahan kelas balap MOMRC pun turut disponsori tidak hanya oleh Zettagrid Indonesia, tetapi juga oleh GT Radial.

Cloud Application Startup

Cloud Computing-based Application for Startup Operations

Cloud Computing-based Application for Startup Operations

Developing a startup, technology is needed to support its various operational systems. However, as a growing company, startups need to choose a technology that is effective but still budget-friendly. One interesting option is cloud computing-based technology, an internet-based data processing system.

As a startup that is often engaged in technology, and they don’t have to focus only on maintaining internet sites, but also on mobile applications. The expansion of startups to mobile applications can shorten and simplify the relationship between companies and customers. Therefore, they need the best components that can facilitate the company’s operational system, such as cloud computing-based application.

Then, why is cloud computing is an efficient component for startups? Through CoLearn Online — a webinar from CoHive entitled “Getting Started to Build Your Apps with Cloud”. In this webinar, also invited Aditya Irawan as Zettagrid Indonesia Cloud Architect, Jefriansyah Hertikawan Co-Founder Pajak.io, and Ceria Mentari, Partnership Associate CoHive as moderator.

Cloud computing-based application is a software program where cloud computing and existing components work side by side. Meanwhile, cloud computing is a computational data processing process that includes CPU, RAM, Network Speeds, software, OS, and storage via the internet network. With cloud computing, companies no longer need high-performance IT support to protect the company’s valuable data. Then, what are the benefits of using cloud computing-based applications for startups?

An effective operating system
According to Aditya, cloud computing components have a very good performance, supported by an adjustable storage size and network speed. Without using the cloud, you will need a lot of separate servers to operate the system. On the other hand, the cloud allows these servers to be consolidated in the same database and makes the system works in a simpler way. In terms of infrastructure, cloud computing doesn’t equip with hardware, thus making it free from hardware refreshment and is more cost-friendly. Also, cloud computing is very flexible as it is accessible remotely.

Let the company focus on anything else besides the system
As a startup business, startups have several phases of business development, one of them is the launch phase. In this phase, startups need to focus their business on the marketing and promotion process. However, as this phase requires high funds, many startups experience losses during the launch period. With cloud computing, startups can save for a rainy day for additional operating costs. Meaning more funds for product development and promotion.

According to Jefriansyah, the main goal of startups during the early phase is to achieve the market fit—a situation when the company managed to introduce its products to the public and bring the added-value to their customers. By using cloud computing-based application, companies can focus on the business and the IT infrastructure as well.

Enable startups to compete better
Cloud computing technology enables startups to compete better. The services offered by cloud computing allows its users to be free from taking care of its maintenance, security, and administration of all their IT solutions. So, companies can focus more on developing their products. However, if the company chooses to use the services of on-premise solutions, the whole process of rejuvenating the equipment is on the company. On-premise solutions itself is a custom-made technology infrastructure by a company for its own use. This means that it requires a higher budget and bigger challenges for the companies.

This insightful webinar regarding the technology side of a startup then invited many questions from the participants. One of them is how to make an application with an economical budget for a new company? On this question, Jefriansyah explains that there is one thing that startups need to pay attention to before making an app, and that is the framework. The framework will determine the capacity plan for the system and how it operates. Hence, startups need to research more before deciding which one is the most suitable for them. Also, Aditya added that to balance the books, the company can adjust the cloud computing service in accordance with their budget.

The advantages of the cloud-computing based application are a very attractive choice for startups. Especially with the benefits that support startups to be able to focus on product development and target achievement. The advantages of cloud computing are unprecedented. Besides being able to reduce operating costs, it can also work very efficiently and help users work more effectively. That is why, using cloud computing-based application can be the right choice for a growing company, such as a startup.

Why Cloud Computing is Vital for Firms in Enabling WFH

Why Cloud Computing

Why Cloud Computing 

 

Why cloud computing is vital for companies? Cloud is the on-demand availability of computer system resources, data storage, and computing power that is based on the internet. It enables the company to access software on the internet as a service at any time and from anywhere. Due to the work-from-home system that is implemented by the government, many companies have to settle for the new adjustments which require some modifications. Although working remotely may rise many challenges, by using cloud you can have access to your data from anywhere and optimize your business from home.

Many companies spend large amounts of money on developing their software system, but by using the cloud, it takes less time and cost to make it happens. To delve more about cloud computing, CoHive held an insightful discussion through CoLearn Online, titled “Facing Pandemic: Optimizing IT Operations in Uncertain Times.” Inviting Dolly Indra as the General Managers of Zettagrid Indonesia, the dialogue moderated by Indah Rahdiani (Event Management Senior Associate CoHive).

  1. Transparency cost

Investing and establishing software is very expensive. According to Dolly, transparency cost often failed to happen when it comes to technology and information investments, especially on-premise software (software that is installed and run conventionally on a company’s computer in a particular location). However, it does not occur in cloud computing because the costs required are not in the form of license fees, but subscription fees. Besides, the existence of a cloud computing system allows companies to reduce the cost needed for the computer infrastructure

 2. Flexibility

One of the significant benefits of cloud computing is flexibility. This service includes the period of subscription, the size of data storage, and the kind of application needed. It also gives the companies and their employees the mobility to work from any location. The file-sharing features on the cloud also allow them to develop and send the data faster and easier. For this matter, Dolly explained that cloud computing with on-premise software is superior from various sides. One of them is the unnecessary process of device shipment because everything can be done via the internet.

3. Good security system

According to Dolly, before choosing the cloud provider, the customers need to conduct thorough research regarding the security system. This research is essential to do as the customer has the right to make policy requests about the security system. Also, it’s necessary to know that storing the data on the cloud is safer than do it on physical servers. However, by storing the data on the cloud, the customers allowed to delete or move any confidential information remotely.

Moreover, Dolly gave an example from his clients at Zettagrid. Due to WFH, it has become an issue to access some confidential data of the company; however since they use cloud computing, it’s no longer a problem. To tackle this issue, this company then applied one of the services offered by cloud computing, the “disaster recovery protection”. This protection service allows customers to access the information even during an unexpected situation. This service has allowed the company to run their business even during the global pandemic.

Working from home has become a trend, but it has to be supported by the right technology. Therefore, cloud computing is here to become the solution to many companies that are still hanging upon the hardware system. By using the cloud, the deployment of software activation process will be faster, it will be easier to get additional revenue as the investment cost is rather low, and there’s a low level of risk. Furthermore, this is the right time to think ahead and choose the right technology for your company.

Backup Data

Mengenal Backup Data Sebagai Solusi IT Perusahaan Anda

Sampai hari ini, perkembangan ekonomi digital telah mengubah sistem berbagai bisnis menjadi lebih mudah, terotomatisasi, fleksibel, dan efisien. Hal ini tentu dapat terjadi dikarenakan kemajuan sistem teknologi digital yang mampu mendukung perjalanan bisnis secara optimal. Salah satunya dengan menggunakan teknologi cloud.

Tidak hanya berperan sebagai solusi infrastruktur digital bagi perusahaan, cloud juga dapat membantu meningkatkan efisiensi bisnis dengan mengurangi investasi CAPEX dan OPEX. Selain itu, cloud dapat dengan cepat dikembangkan dalam beberapa jam saja. Karena kecanggihannya tersebut, cloud bisa menjadi pilihan untuk mengefisiensikan operasional bisnis bahkan di masa pandemi COVID-19 seperti sekarang ini.

Namun, mengoptimalkan operasional bisnis pun tidaklah cukup untuk masa sekarang. Back up data juga diperlukan demi mengembalikan data yang hilang maupun rusak (corrupt). Hal ini juga penting mengingat bencana baik yang berasal dari alam maupun ulah manusia bisa terjadi, sehingga memicu terjadinya kehilangan data.

Dalam talkshow “Zettagrid e-Techday vol.02: Simplify Your Back Up and Disaster Recovery with Veeam Cloud Connect” pada 30 Juli 2020, Daniel Santini, Senior Virtual Engineer Zettagrid Australia, menjelaskan alasan mengapa cloud bisa menjadi pilihan terbaik untuk mendesain strategi dalam melakukan backup data. Lalu, bagaimana cara merancang disaster recovery bagi perusahaan? Apakah penting bagi perusahaan untuk melakukan back up? Berapa kali perusahaan wajib melakukan back up data? Simak pertanyaan-pertanyaan tersebut dari penjelasan berikut untuk mengetahui gambarannya:

Bagaimana cloud mendukung kebutuhan perusahaan dalam melakukan backup data?

Infrastruktur IT pada dasarnya telah menyediakan berbagai tools untuk mencapai kebutuhan bisnis. Diantaranya adalah layanan berbasis hybrid cloud sebagai solusi backup data perusahaan.

Ketika merancang kebutuhan bakup data untuk perusahaan anda, anda pasti akan mempertimbangkan investasi waktu dan infrastruktur yang diperlukan. Contohnya,be rapa banyak waktu dalam menyiapkan server cadangan baru dan pengelolaan hardware, tempat penyimpanan khusus, biaya daya, penyimpanan di luar tempat, hingga VPN. Jika Anda memutuskan untuk menghilangkan fungsi dari beberapa fitur tersebut, tentu akan menghasilkan waktu dan banyak biaya bagi Anda untuk keperluan lain.

Untuk itu, cloud hadir memudahkan Anda dengan fitur jaringan dan hardware pada pengaturan on premises yang ada. Sehingga, pemasangan cloud tidak memerlukan waktu yang lama, jaringan VPN, atau leased line, dan biaya investasi hardware, karena telah dilengkapi resource yang fleksibel.

Seberapa penting perusahaan melakukan back up data?

Dalam melakukan optimalisasi bisnis, anda mungkin tidak mengingat banyaknya jumlah data yang dimiliki perusahaan, perangkat penyimpanan apa yang biasa digunakan, berapa nilai data, hingga kebutuhan akan keamanan data tersebut. Ketimbang menyalin solusi siap pakai yang tidak sesuai dengan kebutuhan yang diperlukan, cloud bisa menjadi pilihan yang tepat sebagai pendekatan khusus untuk setiap situasi. Sehingga, jika Anda perlu untuk melakukan backup data atau recovery data akibat bencana atau kehilangan data yang terjadi diluar keinginan anda. Anda bisa menggunakan cloud untuk mem-back up data hingga ke titik awal.

Berapa kali perusahaan wajib melakukan back up data?
Back up data biasanya dilakukan ketika hilangnya backup data yang terakhir dilakukan. Hal ini sangat penting untuk dilakukan demi mengingat banyaknya jumlah data yang hilang. Dalam beberapa kasus, kehilangan data yang dibiarkan selama berminggu-minggu mungkin akan baik-baik saja. Namun, untuk hilangnya beberapa data penting selama berminggu-minggu, tentu akan sulit untuk di backup atau diselamatkan datanya kembali.
