In addition to Managed Storage Services, Q Associates' datacentre provides access to co-location and hosting facilities, offering clients the option of managing their own environments and services from a remote site.
Hosting applications and data in a remote site addresses potential shortcomings in business continuity and disaster recovery practices where existing footprint or datacentre space is not already available.
