BUSINESS CONTINUITY NETWORK

Critical operations needa network engineeredfor continuity.Critical operationsneed a networkengineered forcontinuity.

When a fixed line, carrier or network device fails, critical operations need another path. IDY engineers multi-carrier 5G and LTE as an always-available business-continuity network.

Offices and a data center connected through diverse paths to sustain operations during a primary-line failure
FIXED + MULTI-CARRIER 5G / LTEDo not entrust operations to one path
01 / CONNECTIVITY IS AN OPERATING DEPENDENCY

When connectivity stops,critical operations stop.When connectivitystops, criticaloperations stop.

Ordering, payments, production, cloud applications and remote monitoring all assume connectivity. A network incident at one site can cascade into downtime for customers and business partners.

02 / MULTIPLE FAILURE DOMAINS

One backup path only protectsagainst one failure domain.One backup pathprotects against onlyone failure domain.

Disasters are not the only cause of downtime. Access lines, carriers, local loops, routers, power and premises wiring must be separated into failure domains and diversified accordingly.

03 / ACTIVE CONTINUITY ARCHITECTURE

Do not merely install a backup.Operate every available path.Do not merely installa backup. Operateevery available path.

This is more than replacing a primary line with a dormant backup. Fixed access and multiple 5G/LTE carriers are observed together so an available path can remain connected to critical operations.

04 / READY BEFORE THE INCIDENT

Do not base continuity on a pathfirst used during an incident.Do not base continuityon a path first usedduring an incident.

A backup that is only activated during an incident may not be ready when needed. Connectivity, quality, SIMs and devices are monitored in normal operation, making switching and recovery part of the operating model.
