02Regional realities for managed it services
In the Okanagan, good urban fibre in Kelowna and Vernon with thinner options across the surrounding valley. That affects how we architect managed it services for Kelowna: where we host workloads, how we manage devices remotely and what failover we recommend. We also consider disruption risk - wildfire smoke and evacuation orders, summer heat and power interruptions that make cloud-based continuity a necessity - when choosing backup frequency, recovery objectives and the location of offsite copies.

There is no lock-in, GST is 5%, and a launch discount of 10% is available. Reach us at (604) 632-4959 or info@SAZ.ca.
