Search Disaster Recovery, Thursday, April 18th, 2024
A disaster recovery (DR) site is a facility an organization can use to recover and restore its technology infrastructure and operations when its primary data center becomes unavailable.
The decision about what kind of DR site an organization needs and its location requires careful planning and a balance of costs against any risks. Disaster recovery sites should be a part of a business continuity plan.
Hot, warm and cold disaster recovery sites
How long it would take a disaster recovery site to replace the service in the event of a failure is usually expressed by how hot or cold it is.
