The Challenge

Detroit businesses risk permanent data loss because backups fail silently, get stored on same servers as production data, or never get tested for actual restoration.

Our Solution

AppWT implements reliable backup systems with offsite storage and tested recovery. Your data stays protected with verified ability to restore quickly during emergencies.

About Our Backup Services Services

Backups prevent catastrophic data loss from attacks, failures, or human error. AppWT implements automated backup systems capturing databases, files, and configurations on scheduled intervals. We store backups in geographically separate locations protecting against regional disasters, encrypt backup data securing sensitive information, and verify backup integrity through regular testing. Retention policies maintain multiple versions enabling recovery from various points in time. We document restoration procedures and test recovery processes quarterly. Rapid recovery minimizes downtime during incidents. Lansing businesses recover quickly from ransomware attacks when clean backups restore operations within hours instead of paying criminals or losing data permanently.

What's Included

✓ Automated database and file backups
✓ Off-site copies in a separate region
✓ Encrypted in transit and at rest
✓ Multiple restore points retained
✓ Restores actually tested, not assumed
✓ Documented recovery steps anyone can follow

Technical Details

Backups are scheduled per data type rather than as one nightly sweep. Databases are captured with consistent dumps so a write in progress cannot produce a torn snapshot; files and configuration are captured separately on their own interval. Copies are written to storage in a different geographic region from the origin server, so a regional outage cannot take the primary and the backup together. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and the encryption keys are held apart from the backup store. Retention is tiered, keeping recent daily copies alongside older weekly and monthly ones, so recovery is possible from more than one point in time rather than only from last night. Integrity is proven by periodic test restores into a scratch environment and comparing against the source, because a backup that has never been restored is unverified. Recovery point and recovery time objectives are agreed in writing, and the restoration runbook is documented step by step so recovery does not depend on one person being reachable.

Livonia Home Base

Databases captured consistently, files separately. Scheduled from Livonia so a write in progress cannot produce a torn snapshot.

Copies held in a different region. Backups for Westland, Garden City, Plymouth, Canton and Dearborn businesses survive an outage that takes the origin.

Oakland County

Restored to prove they work. Farmington Hills, Novi, Southfield, Birmingham and Troy clients get periodic test restores, because an untested backup is unverified.

Beyond Metro Detroit

Recovery documented step by step. Flint, Ann Arbor, Lansing, Grand Rapids and 21-state clients are not dependent on one person being reachable.
