Disaster Recovery Is Different for the CloudCategory: Business, Data, Infrastructure
Disaster Recovery Plans (DRPs) have received increased attention due to disruptions from cyberattacks, natural disasters, and the pandemic. A well-developed DRPs can mitigate those risks, but DRPs for the cloud are somewhat different than those for traditional on-premises assets.
On-premise and cloud installations have distinct recovery advantages and challenges, and disaster recovery plans absolutely must account for the differences.
Your infrastructure team is responsible for all hardware needed to support your deployments at scale, including sufficient resources to ensure capacity needs are met and that resources are available to perform regular backups of critical data.
RPO is a measure of how much data you are willing to risk losing, and RTO measures how long it will take to have your data operational after a disaster.
