The Fundación Universitaria Agraria de Colombia (Uniagraria) sought to enhance the availability and resilience of its financial and academic systems against potential contingencies on its main platform.
Ayté implemented a cloud backup solution on AWS, ensuring information redundancy in a secure and isolated environment. As a result, Uniagraria now has a reliable system that guarantees operational continuity in the face of any eventuality.
Executive Summary
About Uniagraria
The Fundación Universitaria Agraria de Colombia (Uniagraria) is a higher education institution focused on rural sustainability, offering programs that promote agroecology, agronomic engineering, and sustainable development.
Uniagraria is recognized for training professionals committed to transforming the Colombian countryside.
The Challenge
To ensure the continuity of its operations, Uniagraria needed a solution that would provide a backup copy of its information in a secure and isolated environment from the main site.
The institution sought to prevent interruptions to its critical services and ensure the protection of its technological infrastructure against potential incidents.
The Solution
Ayté proposed and implemented a cloud backup solution using AWS storage services.
Creation of a dedicated AWS account for Uniagraria.
Implementation with Amazon S3 and Amazon EFS to optimize performance.
Automation of backup tasks to ensure constant and updated copies.
Monitoring and validation of the process by Ayté’s technical team.
Ayté’s Differentiator: The comprehensive support from design to solution optimization allowed the adaptation to Uniagraria’s specific needs, ensuring secure and efficient backups.
Results Achieved
Peace of mind and confidence: By having backup copies stored in a secure environment, separate from the main site.
Improved performance and cost efficiency of backups through the use of high-performance storage for hot data and low-cost storage for cold data.
Guaranteed availability of critical information in the face of any eventuality.
“The greatest benefit Uniagraria has gained is the peace of mind that comes from knowing that their backups are secure and isolated from any risks that could affect their main systems.”
Sandra Granados, Project Leader, Ayté
Conclusion and Next Steps
The solution implemented by Ayté allowed Uniagraria to strengthen its disaster recovery strategy, ensuring the continuity of its critical operations. This case demonstrates how educational institutions can improve their operational resilience through cloud solutions.
