Disaster Recovery Solutions
Restore operations at lightning speed with Insight’s DR Solutions
In the event of a natural or human-caused disaster, a correctly implemented Disaster Recovery solution can quickly recover your critical data and applications with minimal interruption. This enables off-site replication of data and services to fully protect your mission critical IT environments. DR forms a subset of Business Continuity, which focuses on avoiding or mitigating risks, while DR restores the organisation after a disaster has occurred.
A Disaster Recovery solution must be based on a solid Business Continuity plan that has taken into account the reality of the business requirements for recovery. This must encompass the:
Recovery Point Objective (RPO)
This is the age of files that must be recovered from backup storage for normal operations to resume if a computer, system, or network goes down.
The period of time within which systems, applications, or functions must be recovered after an outage, for example one business day. RTO’s are often used as the basis for the development of recovery strategies, and as a determinant as to whether or not to implement the recovery strategies during a disaster situation.
