Overview :

Disaster can strike when you least expect it.  So how do you back up and maintain control of your data and still provide access to data in a distributed organization?  The challenges are clear...large and growing amounts of data need to be distributed across many sites yet complications such as bandwidth usage, file coherence, version consistency, and file latency all result in lost productivity.  And how do you back up and control all this data?  When do you back up when people are working on files 24 hours a day? What work has been done since your last back up?  Can you afford to lose it? What if you could have the best of both worlds: fast access to critical data in all branches that need it and a central control system that backs up changes as they happen?

GlobalSCAPE WAFS (Wide Area File Services) and CDP (Continuous Data Protection) solutions were purpose-built to optimize these IT processes.  First, WAFS overcomes the limitations of WAN technology by mirroring files to multiple locations and keeping them current with a proprietary byte-level differencing algorithm which minimizes bandwidth usage and costs. CDP mirrors changes to files to the central vault in real time, creating a data back-up solution that again creates minimal traffic and yet is transparent seamless and continuous.
