ABSTRACT:
Before you begin reviewing the available technologies that support disaster recovery, you first must consider the business. You need to identify which business processes are most important to keeping your business operational.
Once you have identified the most critical business processes, work with the business units to determine their availability requirements for each process. Document the requirements in an internal SLA that specifies the availability goals for each process and articulates the costs of not meeting the goals.
Documenting the cost of not meeting availability requirements helps you determine the value of a software investment used to improve availability. This information also helps you prioritize the processes to analyze. After documenting the service levels required, you can start analyzing the availability needs of each business process technology by technology.
This white paper will help you ensure business continuity and survival by leading you through three essential steps from understanding the concepts of disaster recovery and information availability to calculating the business impact of downtime.
