What is disaster recovery (DR)?
Disaster recovery (DR) refers to the processes and strategies that enable a business to resume operations after a disruption caused by catastrophic events, such as cyberattacks, natural disasters, or pandemics. It's crucial for maintaining business continuity, as disruptions can lead to significant costs and operational losses.
Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) is a cloud-based model that allows businesses to back up their data and critical IT infrastructure with a third-party provider. This approach eliminates the need for upfront investments in disaster recovery resources, making it more accessible for organizations. The market for DRaaS is expected to grow significantly, reaching an estimated $41 billion by 2025.
How do RPO and RTO impact disaster recovery planning?
Recovery Point Objective (RPO) defines the maximum age of data that must be recovered to resume operations, while Recovery Time Objective (RTO) indicates the maximum time allowed to restore operations after a disruption. Together, RPO and RTO help organizations determine the frequency of data backups and the necessary strategies and technologies for effective disaster recovery.
