Data is an important intangible asset in the daily operation of financial enterprises. Whether it is stock data or incremental data, more than half of it is unstructured or semi-structured data. With the continuous application of disruptive new technologies such as big data, Internet of Things and artificial intelligence, unstructured data accounts for an increasing proportion of total data assets in the financial industry, and the analysis and mining of unstructured data is also becoming more and more important for financial business innovation.
The financial industry has high requirements for continuous business operation. All kinds of infrastructure availability risks, multi-point failures of hardware devices, emergencies and natural disasters will cause the unavailability of information systems, which will lead to the interruption of IT services and ultimately affect the continuous business operation. The application of the SDAS, HA, and Multi-point disaster recovery technologies can effectively improve the overall availability of information systems, IT service levels, and anti-risk capabilities of business operations, and improve the utilization of data center infrastructure. The following is a list of business continuity solutions that we can offer to our clients in the financial industry.

| Backup | There are a small number of servers with data stored on their hard drives, requiring data backup, but allowing for data loss and downtime from several hours to a day. | Copy the data on the local hard disks of the server to the storage device using the backup software or directly purchase two storage devices to serve as production storage and backup storage respectively. | Low |
| There are a small number of servers with data stored in storage devices, requiring data backup, but allowing for data loss and downtime from several hours to a day. | Purchase licensed backup software and backup storage. Copy the original data to a new storage device using backup software, or use the new storage device as production storage. The original storage device becomes backup storage. | Low | |
| Replication+CDP | Users do not have storage devices, and their tolerance for data loss and business downtime is at the minute level. | Two new Macrosan MS series storage devices are purchased. The replication function is configured for both devices. The snapshot function is optional. Application data is saved in the primary storage and periodically copied to the backup storage. | High |
| Users need to create local data protection for existing Macrosan MS series storage. The tolerance for data loss and service downtime is at the minute level. | A new Macrosan MS series storage device is purchased and the replication function is configured. The replication function is added to the original storage device and the snapshot function is optional. If the existing storage device is insufficient, you can use the existing storage device as backup storage. | Medium | |
| SDAS | User does not have a storage device, data loss and service downtime are prohibited. | Two new Macrosan MS series storage devices are configured with the SDAS function and the snapshot function is optional.
