Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery
Most organizations have backups, but few have proven they can recover. LABUSA sets recovery objectives with the business, designs backup and recovery to meet them, and tests the plan so continuity is demonstrated....
Managed Cloud & IT Infrastructure
Infrastructure drifts when nobody owns the years after go-live. LABUSA monitors, maintains, optimizes and backs up private, AWS, Azure and hybrid environments as one accountable service, with tested recovery....
Cloud Migration & Infrastructure Modernization
Aging infrastructure and big-bang migrations put operations at risk. LABUSA assesses your environment, places each workload on AWS, Azure, private or hybrid infrastructure, and migrates in tested waves with rollback....

AWS Managed Services
Opening an AWS account takes a few minutes. Operating one so that it is secure, recoverable, observable and not quietly expensive is a continuing job, and it is the job most organizations underestimate because the platfo...
