DISASTER RECOVERY PLANNING

It Pays to Be Prepared.

In short, the more that a business relies on IT, the more break-downs in infrastructure can cause massive headaches. That’s because both natural and man-made disasters can cause business slowdowns or shutdowns. For example, everything from hurricanes and floods, to cyberattacks, civil disturbances and other unfortunate events can leave companies with an IT mess. Additionally, deleted files, misconfigured hardware, and power outages can knock your business offline, causing productivity to grind to a halt. Therefore, to protect your data in these situations, businesses need to plan ahead by putting together a solid disaster recovery plan.

TYPES OF DISASTER RECOVERY PLANS

Different Application Environments Require Different Solutions.

Data Center Disaster Recovery Plan

To begin with, this plan focuses primarily upon the infrastructural impacts of the disaster. That is, it mainly takes care of the physical aspects of the IT infrastructure. For instance, that may include the facility location, power system, storage facilities, and office premises.

Network Disaster Recovery Plan

On the other hand, this specific plan relates to the network infrastructure of the business or corporation. Before the development of this kind of plan can even be considered, it is essential to understand the entire network infrastructure and its layout as well as its functionalities.

Virtualized Disaster Recovery Plan

As the name suggests, in this plan, a virtual machine engages almost immediately after any disaster takes place. Therefore, it not only preserves the saved data, but also helps retrieve the application data.

Cloud Disaster Recovery Plan

Cloud-based recovery plan vary from the backup of necessary files to the complete backup of data. Although crafting this kind of plan is the responsibility of the provider that is hosting the cloud-based environment, the business or corporation must also work in conjunction with the provider to ensure that its data can be downloaded quickly onto the new servers after disaster strikes.
