Causes of Downtime

Strategy Considerations How quickly do I need to recover? -Cost of every hour (minute) to business ops and reputation What level of outage do I need to protect against? -System outage -Site within a campus -Within or across countries How does my strategy change with virtualization? How do I prove my strategy? -Testing without impacting production Business Continuity Work Group

Traditional Disaster Recovery Involves: -Complex processes and infrastructure -Precise training, documentation and execution Requires: -Dedicated identical hardware -Significant consumption of time and resources -2 to 3X the capacity used for production -Unacceptable levels of WAN utilization Results in: -Inability to test or often failed tests -Recovery times of days or weeks Business Continuity Work Group
