5. What considerations we care about?  Recovery Point Objective (RPO)  Recovery Time Objective (RTO)  Test Time Objective (TTO)  Cost  Reliability  Complexity  Automation 5 CS526 - Spring 2010

6. Common DRP  Back up  Image Capture  Replication  server cluster  virtualization 6 CS526 - Spring 2010

7. Why virtualization is the best ? Simple Portable  Controllability Automation  Fast  High availability Isolated  Security reliability 7 CS526 - Spring 2010
