A robust disaster recovery plan is Paramount. Hurricane Katrina among other more recent hurricanes shows us that in addition to thinking about system and communication failure, you should also consider the possibility that your premises might be destroyed and rendered unusable either temporarily or permanently. Consider adding a response general contractor to your disaster plans as well. You need to think about system recovery, but you also need to consider hardware replacement or recovery, relocating available personnel in new office space, and replacing communication systems. Confidence in a provider’s reliability is paramount. Amazon’s pitch for disaster recovery business suggests growing confidence that businesses are ready to step further onto the cloud with their most mission-critical apps. I feel that having a third party is Paramount in having a solid disaster recovery plan.
