A conceptual view of environment, protection scope, supporting technology, and recovery requirements.

The role of technology

Technology supports the service. It does not define it.

A backup platform sits beneath ExcelyTech's on-premises backup and recovery offering. The software helps create and store copies; ExcelyTech defines what is protected, how restores are approached, and what your agreement covers.

Backup is not the outcome. Recovery is.

What the software can do depends on version and configuration. Our methodology starts with your environment and recovery needs; day-to-day activities follow what we document in your service agreement.

Distinct roles within the service
Supporting platform
  • Provides technology beneath the service
  • Capabilities depend on product version
  • Behavior depends on configuration
  • Does not determine business context
  • Does not set service responsibilities

The platform is one layer of the service relationship.

ExcelyTech service
  • Owns the customer-facing service
  • Uses the seven-stage ExcelyTech methodology
  • Connects protection discussion to business context
  • Keeps recovery requirements in view
  • Defines activities through agreed scope

ExcelyTech owns the service relationship and methodology.

Service and technology hierarchy

ExcelyTech owns the service. Technology plays a supporting role.

The company, service, methodology, and supporting platform have distinct roles. The customer's environment and agreed scope shape how they fit together.

    Backup offering

    On-premises backup and recovery

    Image-based backup for on-premises systems, delivered with a supporting platform under the agreement. Capabilities depend on version, configuration, and scope.

    Customer-facing offering
ExcelyTech, its service and methodology, and supporting technology retain distinct roles.

What shapes the fit

Technology details depend on the environment and scope.

The relevant platform capabilities should be considered in the context of the product version, customer environment, and agreed service.

01

Version & configuration

Available capabilities and behavior depend on the version and configuration of the supporting platform.

02

Customer environment

The systems, data, and recovery requirements involved shape the technology discussion.

03

Agreed service scope

Specific activities and responsibilities are determined by the agreed service scope.

Specific platform capabilities, service activities, and responsibilities should be confirmed for the version, environment, and agreed scope.

The service

The software is the tool. ExcelyTech is the service.

ExcelyTech owns the customer-facing service relationship and methodology. Supporting platforms help deliver on-premises backup and recovery; day-to-day work is set in your service agreement.

Supporting platform
  • Platform capabilities Product behavior depends on the version and configuration in use.
  • Technology role The platform supports the service but does not define its business context or scope.
  • Service boundaries Software capabilities alone do not set customer or provider responsibilities.
ExcelyTech service
  • Customer-facing service ExcelyTech owns the data protection and recovery service relationship.
  • Seven-stage methodology Understand, Assess, Protect, Monitor, Validate, Recover, and Improve frame the service approach.
  • Agreed scope Specific activities and responsibilities are established for the agreed service.
  • Recovery context The business environment and recovery requirements stay part of the discussion.

ExcelyTech owns the service. The platform supports it. A backup platform is the supporting layer; your service agreement defines the work and responsibilities.
