Business Continuity And Disaster Recovery
Disaster recovery and Business Continuity Planning are processes that help enterprises prepare for disruptive events. Disaster can strike at any time and in most cases with little or no warning. Business Continuity Planning(BCP) is meant to keep an enterprise continuous by operating in the event of major disasters. A business continuity plan outlines the steps that enterprises can immediately respond to after a disaster takes place. The plan determines how to continue operations as well as recover and restore any data that was compromised.
DISASTER RECOVERY (DR)
Disaster Recovery (DR) is very often an integral part of business continuity. It focuses on the technology part of enterprise. The recovery objectives are measured in seconds or minutes, a good recovery plan can keep an enterprise running through interruptions of power failures, IT system crashes, natural disasters, and more. While creating a disaster recovery strategy, one must first focus on two key metrics; the recovery point objective (RPO) and recovery time objective (RTO).
