Disaster Restoration Services: Complete IT Disaster Recovery Solutions

Outages, critical process bugs, natural disasters, and other emergency events can happen at any time, interrupting your network and leaving your system’s doors wide open to additional risk. When things don’t go as planned in your IT environment, it’s important to have an in-depth, strategic, tried-and-tested disaster recovery plan to help get you back on your feet.

While many businesses think of an IT disaster as a weather-related issue that affects their datacenters, there’s much more to it. The most common types of disasters that can disrupt your IT systems are:

When a common organizational IT disaster happens, your business needs to have a thorough disaster restoration plan in place. Without a disaster plan in place, you run the risk of losing more than just valuable data and internal resources - you can damage your brand image and customer relationships in an irreparable way.

Disaster recovery planning is a critical element that every enterprise and SMB should employ. According to Gartner, the estimated "size of the [Disaster Recovery as a Service] DRaaS market will be approximately $1.3 billion, with a related compound annual growth rate of approximately 30 percent. By 2018, Gartner estimates that the size of the DRaaS market will exceed that of the market for more traditional subscription-based [disaster recovery] services.”

With the proper disaster recovery plan and disaster restoration services, your business can be more prepared by:

  • Exploring various disaster scenarios and the implications that each can have on your business
  • Running through real-world testing to find any vulnerabilities
  • Establishing a secure database to lessen the risk of attack
  • Meeting strict rules, regulations, and governance
