Service Level Agreement
Amazon EC2 offers a highly reliable environment where replacement instances can be rapidly and predictably commissioned. Our Service Level Agreement commitment provides 99.95% availability.
Secure Firewall
Docutiva provides a complete firewall solution, configured to enable tight security in a three-tiered application such as Docutiva. The firewall infrastructure supports the ability to grant granular access to different administrative functions on the instances and the firewall, therefore enabling additional security through a separation of duties.
Data backups
Docutiva takes data backups very seriously and makes both on-site and off-site backups of its databases and client data daily. In the highly unlikely event of a total disaster, Docutiva can be restored to within 24 hours of the disaster occuring.
