Best practices for protecting business data and avoiding downtime
Here we are in the 21st Century where an ‘always-on’ culture and ‘highly-available-everything’ infrastructure makes us all subscribe to the notion that we are protected and ready for anything. But are we? It’s not possible to mitigate every disaster, indeed cost and time constraints often force us to focus on very specific big disasters at the behest of the smaller ones (or vice versa) but surprisingly less than half of all businesses are truly ‘ready’ for the kind of disaster they spend a lot of money to protect themselves from.
With downtime costing your average small to medium business (SMB) real money per hour or sometimes per minute, the unforeseen costs of this kind of recovery far outweigh the sensible upfront costs of a solid plan to mitigate such occurrences and have a failover plan for the unplanned failure.
The aim of this white paper is to discuss those options and introduce some best practices for protecting your business data and utilize industry-leading backup and replication tools to drive business continuity when the theoretical worst-case scenario becomes reality. The white paper covers:
- An introduction to the concepts of disaster recovery, business continuity, and high availability
- Considerations when planning and compiling a disaster recovery strategy, and the approach for testing and improvement of a strategy
- An assessment of RTO and RPO measurements, and the 3-2-1 approach
- Examining disaster recovery specifically within edge environments
