An Accurate CMDB Is What's Missing In Your Backup And Disaster Recovery Plan
Techstrong.IT, Friday, May 23rd, 2025
Ensuring an organization has a dependable backup and disaster recovery program (BDR) in place is an important responsibility of an IT operations team to maintain business continuity.
Therefore, practices and tools must be in place to ensure, at the very least, that mission-critical data and systems can be restored to operation as soon as possible. One effective tool that is often overlooked in BDR efforts is a CMDB.
BDR is a source of sleepless nights for IT professionals. One survey reported that only 40% of IT professionals were confident in their backup systems, while another 30% had doubts about their backup strategy. These concerns and fears can be greatly reduced with the use of a CMDB, a tool that should already be a part of every organization's daily IT operations.
