Continuity Care (IBM Power, IBM i)

Continuity Care by Power by Fortra, is a fully managed cyber resilience and recovery validation service for IBM Power and IBM i. The service is powered by FalconStor Habanero™ and Cloud Clean Room ™, technology that gives Fortra's team the infrastructure to execute recovery validation at scale. Habanero provides offsite data protection, moving IBM Power data to immutable storage on IBM Cloud Object Storage so a clean, unaltered copy is always available regardless of what happens to the production environment. 

FalconStor Cloud Clean Room™, built on a patent-pending Zero Trust Secure Enclave, provides the isolated recovery environment on IBM PowerVS where each quarterly test takes place. Together, the two technologies give Power by Fortra the foundation for resilient offsite retention and proof of recoverability, on top of which the Power by Fortra team delivers the managed services, validation, and reporting that make the offering turnkey for customers. 

What You Get with Continuity Care

Immutable Offsite Data Protection

FalconStor Habanero moves your IBM Power and IBM i backup data, including backups created with Robot Save or BRMS to an immutable home on IBM Cloud Object Storage. A clean, unaltered copy exists no matter what happens to your production environment. This feature is included in Continuity Care and backup only options. 

Isolated Recovery Testing

Built on a patent-pending Zero Trust Secure Enclave, FalconStor Cloud Clean Room provides an isolated recovery environment on IBM PowerVS. Cloud Clean Room is part of the full Continuity Care offering, and purpose-built for running your recovery tests without touching production.

Quarterly or Yearly Validated Recovery Testing

The full Continuity Care offering runs recurring recovery validation on a quarterly or annual cadence. Don’t just assume your backups will work when you need them — get bankable proof of recoverability.
