Difference between backup and disaster recovery

Most teams buy one and assume it covers the other.

Backup (BaaS)

Protects your data. When a file, database, or server is lost, corrupted, or encrypted by ransomware, you restore from a known-good copy. It answers: Can I get my data back?

Disaster recovery (DRaaS)

Protects your operations. When primary infrastructure fails, workloads fail over to a secondary environment and keep running. It answers: Can my business keep operating while the primary is down?

What is included in Leapswitch BaaS

We are partnered with Acronis and Veeam

Image-based backup

Full-system backups. Restore one file or the whole machine from the same copy.

Application-aware backup

SQL Server, Exchange, SharePoint, Oracle, and Active Directory are quiesced before snapshot, so restores come back consistent.

Immutable backups

Restore points can't be altered, encrypted, or deleted for their retention period including by a compromised admin account.

256-bit AES encryption

In transit by default. At rest, enabled through your protection plan.

Automated backup verification

Restore points are tested automatically, not assumed good.

Flexible storage targets

Local repository, Leapswitch object storage, or public cloud. More than one at a time.

Centralized management

One console for jobs, restore points, and verification status. Partners get one console across every customer.

What is included in Leapswitch DRaaS

Powered by our inhouse DR tool tailored for your needs

Continuous replication

Real-time or scheduled background replication. RPO from 15 minutes, RTO from one hour.

Automated orchestration

Target resources provisioned, networks mapped, and multi-tier recovery plans executed by boot order and workload dependency.

Isolated DR testing

Test recovery plans and application behaviour in an isolated network, with production untouched.

Automated failback

Return workloads to the primary environment with minimal downtime.

Cross-platform recovery

Recover from on-prem and across VMware, KVM, OpenStack, CloudStack, AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.

Hybrid storage

Object and block storage combined for retention and instant infrastructure recovery.
