Bocada Offers Free Data Protection Health Check to Measure Efficiency, Recoverability, Capacity Management
KIRKLAND, Wash., Sept. 20 - Bocada Inc., the world's leading provider of data protection management software and the creator of the Data Protection Service Management (DPSM) model, today announced that it is offering a free "health check" assessment that provides a comprehensive review of a company's overall data protection environment to help reveal the true health of the backup environment.
As an essential first step in the DPSM model, the health check can help a company gain immediate visibility into their backup environment and answer the following questions:
o Is the backup environment operating at 100 percent efficiency?
o Where are the problem areas?
o How much capacity is the organization using?
By offering a free, objective assessment of a company's current data protection activities and outcomes, Bocada partners will be able to effectively evaluate what improvements can be made to the data protection environment, how problems can be alleviated and what best course of remedy can be taken to enable operational efficiencies over time.
"The initial health check phase helps reveal the true effectiveness of an organization's data protection environment and identifies opportunities for improvement," said Nancy Hurley, CEO of Bocada. "Companies will be surprised by the many areas for improvement the free health check will reveal, including freeing IT staff's time to apply their energy to higher-value tasks and services. On its own, the free health check is a valuable service, but for those who implement these assessments regularly as part of an overall DPSM strategy, they should expect to reap benefits far beyond identification of common errors."

Bocada Prism is the first and only data protection service management solution purpose-built to intuitively drive users through the multi-phased DPSM process. Prism's Health Check Module is used during assessments to determine the status of the overall data protection environment. As a general practice, a user will configure a set of reports in the Health Check dashboard and monitor those reports to provide indication of the success/failure of backup and recovery jobs and to review capacity use in the environment. The standard reports can be configured by zones (priority, application type, customer, region, geography, etc.), and may also be viewed by timeframes (day, week, month, etc.). Users can drill down into backup health reports for further information on backup and recovery errors.
Bocada customers include Fortune 500 companies in diverse industries including financial services, technology, consumer goods, and telecommunications. For more information, to see samples of the five reports included in the free health check or to sign up, interested parties can visit the Bocada website at www.bocada.com.
