We know the financial costs of losing data whether there is a power surge, fire, or in extreme cases a tornado.  This can and sometimes does ruin otherwise healthy companies.  This is where Enseva CloudBackup service can help.  With state of the art software and robust infrastructure, Enseva provides you an enterprise class online backup service that ensures that you can quickly get up and running after any kind of data disaster.

The biggest challenges to companies when selecting a backup solution are:

How easy is the product to use and does it work? – The great news is that Enseva CloudBackup has one of the most user friendly web interfaces that allow the end user to setup and begin backups in minutes.  Once backed up, a restore is available with just a few short clicks of the interface.  Find the copy of the original and select a destination for the file.  There are many plugins available as well as Operating Systems that Enseva CloudBackup supports.

Will the product complete backups in my backup window? – Enseva CloudBackup can be seeded for the first full backup.  After this time, the service will utilize incremental backups and utilize block-level comparisons to only backup new data instead of the entire file dramatically cutting down on what needs to be transferred.  This saves on time, space, bandwidth and money.

How secure is the product? – Enseva CloudBackup was designed with security in mind.  A passphrase is created by the customer so they are the only one to know this.  There are multiple encryption options available and once chosen the data is encrypted before leaving the server.  The data remains encrypted during transport and while in Enseva’s data center.  Enseva staff has no access to the data or password.

How much will the product cost? – Enseva CloudBackup has the end user’s wallet in mind when they came up with an aggressive pricing strategy.  Contact sales@enseva.com for more information.

The multi-tenant data center facility houses a portion of Iowa Health System’s data and also has the capability, security and infrastructural support to house data for additional corporations that seek off site secure storage for integral data systems.

The 17,000 square foot Enseva Data Center is a collaborative project with Enseva, Iowa Health System, Professional Office Services, the City of Hiawatha, Alliant Energy and Priority One with financing provided by GNB Bank. The new facility has the capacity to build three more modules at 12,000 square feet each.

“The ribbon cutting signifies great partnerships and growth of a new business,” said Doug Sevey, president and CEO of Enseva. “The future in technology services is bright, and it is an exciting time for Enseva.”

Major national health care providers like Iowa Health System, the first tenant in the facility and the impetus behind the project rely entirely on having access to huge volumes of reliable data in order to care for their patient populations.

“Iowa Health System is transforming the way we use every resource possible to improve the health of our patients and the community. Prevention, wellness and recovery are maximized when we have accurate, reliable data available to us,” said Kevin Vermeer, Executive Vice President/Chief Financial Officer/CSO for Iowa Health System. “We surround the patients with the best care: that means best doctors, best nurses, best services, and best data. This facility is critical to our ability to accomplish that.”

The center uses unique electrical and cooling technologies that provide high-efficiency operations and an innovative extra defense against threats such as overheating or power surges. For a number of reasons, the demand for data center construction is growing quickly.

“As our society moves from an industrial to an information age, making sure data is safe and available is one of the most important elements of doing business,” said Chris Sevey, Chief Information Officer with Enseva. “This new facility is a biometrically secured, high density, high efficiency facility that can provide 100% service availability for clients. All of these aspects are important to companies who rely on mission critical data for their operations.”

Enseva partnered with the City of Hiawatha on incentives to locate the data center in the Corridor metro area and to facilitate the requirements needed to build a facility of this magnitude and service. The company also worked with Alliant Energy to identify and provide the electric infrastructure to enhance electric reliability to the operational center.

“Having partners in economic development is what made this new data center a reality,” says Doug Sevey, president and CEO of Enseva. “We are able to move quickly because we have the right people at the table, with all the same priorities.”

The center will be built to function utilizing proprietary electrical and cooling technologies designed to offer a greater fault tolerance at an unprecedented level of efficiency. Data center construction, particularly in the Midwest is on the rise as companies seek secure storage in the information age.

“As our society moves from an industrial to an information age, data availability is critical,” says Chris Sevey, Chief Information Officer with Enseva. “This new facility is a biometrically secured, high density, high efficiency facility that can provide 100% service availability for clients.

Iowa Health System, the first tenant in the facility and the impetus behind the project recognizes the need for the data availability and the importance of access to that data for their Information Technology professionals.

“Data availability is incredibly important when you are dealing with the health of those who make up more than 2.6 million patient visits per year,” says Kevin Vermeer, Executive Vice President/Chief Financial Officer for Iowa Health System. “We are proud to partner with Enseva as we move forward with our goals of 100% data availability and reliability.”

“We serve more than 76 communities and have 199 physician clinics in Iowa and Illinois. This data center is part of our comprehensive plan to store and secure all the critical data generated in caring for our patients.”

Professional Office Services – another partner and tenant in the colocation facility, sees the value in the security and the availability of data that the Enseva facility will provide.

“We are pleased to be partnering with Iowa Health and Enseva to bring this state of the art data center to fruition. With our nearly 30,000 healthcare customers located throughout the country, we believe that Iowa is the perfect location to safely and securely store this important healthcare information,” says Mike Williams, President and CEO of POS Professional Office Services, Inc.
