Despite having sufficient local storage, the IT team was concerned about data loss in the event of system failure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Early exploration into major cloud providers, such as AWS, revealed pricing and complexity that nearly discouraged the district from pursuing cloud adoption altogether. TSC required a <strong>secure, affordable, and easy-to-manage<\/strong> solution that would protect student and staff data while minimizing downtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Solution\u202f&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>TSC partnered with <strong>OTAVA<\/strong> to build a resilient cloud environment that offered protection, recovery, and peace of mind. The implementation included:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Cloud Replication Repository:<\/strong> A secure off-site backup to ensure data availability and protection from on-prem failures.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cFor anyone out there in the market for cloud storage or a cloud provider, I\u2019d look at OTAVA first.
