Summary
This case study details the implementation of a Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) solution for Kingspan, a leader in insulation and building envelope solutions. The document outlines the challenges faced by Kingspan, particularly their previous disaster recovery solution which had a Recovery Point Objective (RPO) of over 28 days, leaving the company vulnerable to significant financial impacts due to extended downtime of their ERP systems. The case study presents the transition to a new DRaaS solution powered by Zerto, managed by Meriplex Communications. The new solution significantly reduced the RPO to 10 seconds, enhancing data protection and minimizing revenue loss. It also highlights the simplicity of the new system, which is easy to install and administer. Successful test and production failovers have increased confidence in the solution's reliability. The case study emphasizes the importance of effective disaster recovery strategies in maintaining business continuity for Kingspan's operations across North America.
