Unparalleled Capacity

Storage needs will increase by a factor of seven in the next three years*

Northern and Southern failover datacentres are linked by multiple datapaths. . Load balanced application servers are capable of handling 20K+ concurrent connections. Data can be stored in archive indefinately. The service has been optimised for broadband so implementation is easy.
• Capacity from 200MB to 90TB per customer.
• System wide failover datapaths.
• All data is stored on mirrored, state of the art, Raid 6 based systems.
• Maximum sustained data transfer rate of 1,250Mb/sec per disc subsystem.
• DataLifeline connects to multiple tier 1 carriers.
• Load balanced application servers are capable of handling 20K+ concurrent connections.
• Our unique patching technology allows very large files to be dramatically compressed because after the baseline (or 'seed') backup, just the changes inside a file are sent.
Military grade encryption is used by default. This high level of encryption has never been broken. Estimates indicate it would take 100 years to decipher it. Furthermore, assuming in 100 years time you did actually decrypt today's message, you could not construct the whole original file anyway - after the baseline backup has been sent, just encrypted patches are sent to DataLifeline making it impossible to build the original complete file.
• Data is encrypted before it leaves the server/PC – so it securely backs up network workstations (e.g. Directors' laptop data).
• Data can be stored in the archive indefinately with no tapes to become obsolete.
• The service has been optimised for broadband so implementation is easy.
