Client
Arthan Finance is a leading organization operating in one of the most regulated and highly competitive markets. Business continuity, along with ensuring their critical financial services, stands at the top of the list to them.
Business Challenges
Arthan Finance found the existing DR solution presented significant challenges. Some of these concerns included but not limited to:
- High Recovery Time Objectives (RTOs): The recovery of critical applications post disaster took over 4 hours, thus impacting business continuity and customer service.
- Manual Recovery Processes: Disaster recovery involved multiple manual steps, thus increasing the risk of potential human error, leading to further delays.
- Poor Orchestration: The lack of automatable workflows impeded faster execution of disaster recovery.
- Inefficient Failback: Use of traditional full data duplication for failback resulted in further escalating the costs and consequent delay in failover.
