Tape Storage Where are my Tape Backups stored? How quickly can I access them?
Business Needs Businesses Demand Sub 24-Hour Recovery Backup alone, will not achieve sub-24 hour recovery Source: Gartner Group Gartner survey results Today more than ever faster recovery times are required to keep businesses profitable and compliant with industry regulations. The results of a survey conducted by Gartner uncovered the following results: Roughly 60% of all companies responded that they require 24 hours of less recovery times for their key systems, applications and data These increasingly aggressive recovery time requirements are the catalyst behind the evolution in data protection and disaster recovery technology
The Cloud Can Help Choosing the right type of cloud can help mitigate your risks! Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) can only solve part of problem Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) Addresses all the challenges Economies of scale All DR resources are provided Offsite team to manage your recovery
Cloud v. Legacy Strategies $$$$ Hot site Warm site Cost Cold site $ Seconds Hours Days Weeks KEY TAKEAWAY: The cost of fast recovery has been drastically reduced for me Key points: Hot sites and warm sites used to require duplicate equipment, secondary sites, and more manpower Businesses could do DR really cheap if they used tape and a cold site. But cold site recovery is very slow – timing that does not meet the needs of most organizations today When companies use cloud for DR, they can take advantage of shared infrastructure and virtualization technologies. A hot site or warm site in the cloud is much more affordable Recovery Time
