What Is Disaster Recovery?
In IT, disaster recovery involves a set of procedures to be taken in the event of serious, unplanned disruptions to operations. Disasters can result from a variety of causes. Below are some examples:- malware
- power outage
- hackers, compromise of critical systems
- cable, infrastructure failure
- natural disasters (e.g. hurricane, flood)
- human error
Why Is Disaster Recovery Important?
When done well, disaster recovery can, indeed, make the difference between going out of business and carrying on. Aside from the "bottom line", it can also have consequences for the quality of life, and life itself, depending on the nature of your business.Disaster Recovery Planning
Planning and prevention are key to any good disaster recovery plan. Some events can not be prevented (hurricanes, floods), but some can.For events that can not be prevented, a good disaster recovery system will account for:
- Notification - Parties with an interest in the system need to know, and understand, what is occurring.
- Isolation - So that damage, and risk, do not spread further
- Critical Systems Repairs - So that normal business operations can continue
Methods of Disaster Recovery
General, organizations employ redundancy to make disaster recovery possible. This allows secondary stores of data to be brought on-line when primary systems fail.NetworkElites can house your data securely, and safely. You will not have to ever worry about disasters again.
