When disaster strikes, people go into panic. We cannot afford to panic in a cloud-based environment, if we panic, we risk losing all data with our reputations sinking in the ocean.
Instead of panicking over data loss, we need a solid disaster recovery strategy beforehand because when data loss occurs, it accompanies severe consequences like operational disruptions and business closures.
Here, cloud-based disaster recovery plans come in like a life-saving grace.
In a cloud environment, disaster recovery employs cloud computing to keep all data and applications safe against any potential disasters. It involves maintaining and storing electronic records in a cloud infrastructure, ensuring that all data is backed up in case of data loss.
A specialized form of cloud-based disaster recovery is the DRaaS, Disaster Recovery as a Service, which is a service companies use to outsource the hosting and replication of servers to third-party providers.
So, instead of an in-house recovery plan, they get the backup outsourced, enabling them to continue business no matter the calamity. These third-party facilitators assist in data recovery and rapid business continuity.
Cloud-based disaster recovery offers several benefits compared to traditional methods, such as being more cost-efficient, scalable, flexible, and providing faster recovery times.
Cloud solutions follow a pay-as-you-go approach, removing the need for large upfront investments in physical hardware.
These solutions allow businesses to easily adjust storage and computing resources according to their requirements, supporting business expansion and preventing over-provisioning expenses.
Cloud-based disaster recovery minimizes Recovery Time Objective (RTO) and Recovery Point Objective (RPO), ensuring quicker data recovery from the cloud.
It is imperative that you choose a reliable and trustworthy DRaaS provider as it concerns your million-dollar business. There are factors from infrastructure, compliance, and security to customer service and pricing that you should consider.
However, the most important features to note are the SLAs. They define the provider’s obligations concerning performance and availability, providing transparency and a course of action if issues arise.
