Schedule 1

  • 1. Carazor Hosting Architecture and Recovery Profile

    • 1. Carazor Business Continuity PlanningBusiness Continuity Planning for the Carazor Product Suite has been conducted to select a cost-effective strategy for restarting operations in the event of a disaster and to identify which operations and supporting activities need to be restarted after a disaster, the maximum acceptable time limits by which they must restart and the resources needed to restart them. The key metrics defined by the planning are the recovery Point Objective (RPO) and the Recovery Time Objective (RTO).
      • The Recovery Time Objective (RTO) defines the target resolution time of an outage.
      • The Recovery Point Objective (RPO) defines the target point in time to recover data to in the event of an outage.

      For the purpose of this document a disaster is an incident or event which:

      • threatens full and total system outage or total workflow interruption to multiple users; and
      • requires special measures to be taken to restore services back to normal

      Carazor Business Continuity Plan (BCP) is continually updated in line with infrastructure improvements, risk assessments, ensuring all aspects of the service are capable of functioning in the midst of disruptive events, the planned actions to be taken following a disaster scenario, the staff responsible for specific tasks, essential operations and systems, actions required to re-start operations, emergency data processing arrangements, backup requirements, hardware requirements and the means and methods of keeping staff and clients informed of arrangements and developments.

    • 2. Carazor Disaster Recovery PlanningThe RTO and RPO metrics defined in the BCP have been mapped on to the Carazor infrastructure design to ensure the most suitable recovery strategy for each system is implemented to meet those metrics with the best possible balance of Cost, Risk and Quality of Service. The Infrastructure schematic and design is outlined in the next section, the core principles of the design being that:

      • RPO and RTO targets are achievable and tested
      • There should be no single point of failure in any systems
      • Backup Snap Shots of Databases and Servers are taken throughout the day
      • Data is replicated between Servers and Data Centre’s for full redundancy
      • High Availability systems with both data and systems replicated between servers and Data Centre’s are maximized to enable continuous access to systems and data
    • 3. Carazor RTO & RPO Service Level ObjectivesCarazor operates with the following Service Level objectives for Carazor.

      The Recovery Time Objective (RTO) defines the target resolution time of an outage.

      The Recovery Point Objective (RPO) defines the target point in time to recover data to in the event of an outage.
