Protect your business with business continuity solutions
OVHcloud business continuity solutions help businesses to build resilience, minimise outages, and protect critical data. Learn about our approaches to business continuity, as well as backup, disaster recovery, and information security.
The essentials of business continuity
In a critical IT environment, business continuity and data resilience are essential. Find out how OVHcloud solutions help organisations to build their Business Continuity Plans by:
- Providing inherently reliable cloud services based on the principles of resilience and availability (e.g. reliability requirements, RTO, RPO, SLA, fault tolerance);
- Implementing regions and availability zones to create resilient architectures. All interconnected with a reliable private network (link on networks, AZs or regions);
- The implementation of Trusted Zones that in turn enable enhanced systems and applications to be implemented.
- Observability tools that enable full visibility of systems;
- Redundancy mechanisms and software to implement the continuity strategy, such as load balancer, automatic replication and the implementation of extended clusters;
- Backup mechanisms and software to ensure data integrity and disaster recovery.
Finally, our Professional Services and partners are available to support you throughout the implementation and life of your business continuity solutions.

The key challenges to business continuity
Risk of business disruption
Unplanned outages can cripple critical operations and result in significant costs. Businesses need solutions that minimise downtime and ensure a quick restart, with minimal negative impact on operations.
Resilience against cyber threats
Cyberattacks are constantly evolving, putting sensitive data and customer trust at risk. Without an effective data resilience strategy, organisations risk irreparable loss. Our solutions provide proactive protection and rapid recovery to reduce these risks.
Regulatory compliance
Businesses operate under strict data protection and service continuity standards. Lack of compliance can lead to financial penalties and erosion of stakeholder trust. Our solutions help to automate compliance and enable secure management.

What is a Business Continuity Plan?
A Business Continuity Plan (BCP) is a key strategy for a company to prepare for major outages and ensure that critical operations can continue. It is based on identifying risks that could disrupt the organisation’s operations, such as cyberattacks, computer failures or physical disasters.
The BCP sets out clear emergency procedures to effectively manage crises, while putting backup solutions in place to protect data and ensure its quick recovery. It also includes a communication strategy to transparently inform teams, customers, and partners in the event of a disruption.
The goal is to limit negative impacts, whether financial, operational or related to the company’s reputation, and ensure quick recovery, while maintaining stakeholder trust.
