Why Northern Data Centre
Recovery deserves more than an assumption.
NDC is building a Canadian, recovery-focused service for organizations that want clearer evidence, closer support, and honest operating boundaries.
Our point of view
Data protection is a business outcome.
The value of a backup appears at the moment it must become usable data again.
We begin with the workload, its dependencies, the organization’s fallback options, and who has authority to act. That context helps define a protection approach that can be explained and reviewed.
Recovery objectives are not guarantees unless they are measured, supported, and expressly contracted. NDC will not imply otherwise.
Operating principles
Clear by design.
Verify the path
Use agreed recovery activity and evidence to improve confidence and expose gaps.
Operate in Canada
Design service delivery around private Canadian infrastructure and accountable local support.
State the boundary
Document inclusions, exclusions, dependencies, and assumptions before an incident tests them.
What we will not imply
Capability without overpromising.
- No automatic failover claim. High availability is a different service and is not included by default.
- No universal RPO or RTO guarantee. Objectives depend on workload, architecture, testing, and contract.
- No 24×7 promise by implication. Support windows and escalation paths must be explicit.
- No continuity guarantee. Backup and recovery services reduce risk; they do not remove it.
Recovery starts with context
