SingleHop Extends BC and DR Offerings

SingleHop, LLC., a provider of on-demand managed cloud services, announced that it is supporting Veeam Availability Suite v9, enabling integrated, fast and secure DR as a service (DRaaS) to protect mission-critical applications and data in the cloud.

Through the multi-tenancy and networking capabilities built into Veeam Cloud Connect, SingleHop provides failover capabilities for virtualized, production environments to a remote DR site, providing all of the CPU, RAM, storage and networking resources DR customers need. This eliminates the substantial infrastructure costs and complexities customers experience when maintaining their own DR sites. Customers can select which workloads to replicate to the SingleHop cloud, right from their Veeam consoles, without making any changes to the environments themselves.

SingleHop has seen more than 300% quarter-over-quarter growth in its BC product lines in the last three quarters of 2015. The growth has largely been driven by SingleHop’s Backup as a Service (BaaS) offering, delivered through Veeam Cloud Connect to customers looking to take advantage of the integration between Veeam and cloud service providers like SingleHop.

“SingleHop is one of the fastest growing Veeam Cloud & Service Provider partners in North America, increasing their commitment to Veeam by more than a factor of 10 in 2015,” said Matt Kalmenson, North America VP of service and cloud provider sales, Veeam. “The company’s innovation, execution, and technical expertise make them a leader among the VCSP partners in our program.“

Meeting the Needs of Modern Businesses
Businesses require 100% availability and have limited tolerance for downtime and data loss. SingleHop’s Veeam-powered DR service delivers both a RTO and RPO of just 15 minutes.

“We’re making DR less of a pain point and business risk to our customers,” said Jordan Jacobs, VP of products, SingleHop. “Veeam’s latest DR technology puts reliable, cost-effective and secure failover capabilities within reach of hundreds of thousands of customers. When combined with SingleHop’s enterprise grade production cloud storage, our joint customers can enjoy a worry-free failover solution. That’s huge for IT administrators struggling to meet strict RTO and RPO objectives set by their managers.“

As part of its DR service, SingleHop developed a proprietary, secure seeding system that allows customers to safely and securely transfer large amounts of data into SingleHop’s enterprise, production-grade cloud storage without the need to transmit it over the internet, which can take a disproportionate amount of time, bandwidth and expense.

Holistic Continuity Solutions for Every Level
DR thresholds differ across applications and companies depending on several factors including the critical nature of the data and regulatory compliance requirements. SingleHop offers multiple cloud-based BC and DR solutions, affording customers the right balance of RTO, RPO and cost to meet their business needs.

Free trials for each of SingleHop’s backup and DR services are available with no credit card required.
