IBM i Disaster Recovery That Works When Everything Else Fails

Cloud400 delivers fully managed IBM i disaster recovery with defined RTO and RPO targets - so you know exactly how fast you'll be back online.

The Real Risk Isn’t Disaster

The real risk is  assuming your current plan will work.

If your IBM i went down tomorrow…
Do you know—for certain—when you’d be back online?

Downtime costs revenue.
Unplanned downtime costs customers, credibility—and careers.

Even with IBM i’s legendary reliability, outages still happen:

  • Hardware failure
  • Cyberattacks and ransomware
  • Power or regional disruptions
  • Human error
  • Maintenance gone wrong

A disaster recovery plan that isn’t tested isn’t a plan—it’s a guess.

Cloud400 gives you certainty.

We design right-sized IBM i disaster recovery around your exact RTO, RPO, and risk tolerance—not a generic cloud template.

You get a fully managed solution with defined, proven recovery targets, so you know exactly how fast you’ll recover—before anything goes wrong.

  • Real-time replication
  • Tested failover procedures
  • Custom recovery runbooks
  • Dedicated IBM i engineers
  • No generic cloud support desk

Know your recovery outcome before you need it.
