Backup and recovery readiness

Comans designed and manages backups for Saputo sites (Allansford, Smithton) using Veeam/Zerto and cloud targets, with regular restore testing so teams can prove they can recover.

Client

Saputo

Timeline

Design: 4 to 6 weeks. Ongoing operations and quarterly tests.

Key Tooling

Veeam / Zerto | Wasabi/Azure | Runbook testing | Jira

Outcome

Documented restore results and recovery you can verify.

Challenge

  • Critical production systems and site infrastructure needed recoverability that had been tested.
  • Saputo needed clear evidence that backups could be restored within the required RTO/RPO, and that DR runbooks worked in real conditions.

What we did

  • Implemented a backup design suited to each site (Veeam / Zerto as appropriate) with cloud targets for offsite retention.
  • Documented restore procedures and runbooks in Jira.
  • Scheduled regular restore tests and produced test reports showing success rates and any remediation actions.
  • Adjusted retention, replication and orchestration to meet each site’s RTO/RPO requirements.

Outcome

  • Documented restore tests and measurable success rates for critical assets increased confidence in recoverability and satisfied internal audit requirements.
  • The ongoing service includes regular reporting on restore outcomes and remediation plans.
“Client sign-off pending. Our restore tests now give us evidence we can rely on.”
