With this in mind, Egton introduced the Tape Validation Service (TVS) a solution which verifies that customer back up tapes can be used to accurately recreate the database on your clinical system. The service also covers enterprise systems where the clinical server is based within the PCT.

With Egton’s TVS, we take a copy of your organisation's system back up data and test it thoroughly. On receipt of your data, we check that it can be read and that the information restores correctly. We then recreate this data on our own server, analyse the data and produce statistical reports, as proof that your clinical system can be restored in the event of a disaster.

Oen in ten standard software back ups prove to be faulty or unreadable when called upon for emergency data recovery.

Egton’s TVS protects you against dangers such as fire, malicious damage, theft and hardware failure. As well, of course, as reassuring you that your data is safe, secure and reproducible.
