When was the last time you looked at your disaster recovery plan? The beginning of a new year is an excellent time to review it and make sure it is ready for changes within your data center, and changes to the types of threats your data center faces.
Since most data centers are heavily virtualized, recovery expectations are higher than ever and retention requirements more strict. There are also new capabilities available to you; block-level backups, in-place recoveries and of course the cloud. And the threats change. Protection from natural disasters and hardware failure are as important as ever, but now outside cyber-threats like ransomware create new requirements for backup and recovery processes.
Our white paper, “Realigning Disaster Recovery for 2018,” makes sure that you are ready for 2018. This paper will ensure your data center is ready to meet increasing recovery expectations of users and increasing protection requirements from threats like ransomware. The white paper is available exclusively to those attending our webinar, “2018 Disaster Recovery Checklist – 5 Key Areas to Improve.”
