DISASTER RECOVERYAn important, yet often overlooked part of your business continuity plan is IT disaster recovery (DR). In broad terms, this is how you deal with and prevent IT downtime. Even if every other part of your business continuity plan is executed perfectly, you remain at a standstill if your IT systems go down and stay down. And the situation will only get worse as your revenue and reputation take a beating.

There’s a huge difference between disaster prevention and disaster recovery. Both are necessary. But the former only mitigates the risk of downtime through high availability. The latter makes sure if downtime happens you can actually get your IT back online quickly through geographic redundancy.

AOS Cloud Services Solution:Unless you’re one of the few businesses in the world that has the money, data centers, hardware, networks, and expertise, in-house DR is difficult—if not impossible. When you do DR yourself, there are just too many technical complexities and too many compromises struck between minimizing downtime and controlling costs for DR to be reliable. Fortunately for businesses, AOS CLOUD SERVICES makes designing, deploying and managing a DR plan less painful—and more vaffordable.

AOS CLOUD SERVICES DR solutions are not one size fits all. They are designed for each customer’s business, technical and budget needs. Just as important, they are fully managed—backups, data replication, application recovery, server recovery, assessments and DR plan testing are backed 24x7x365 by our expert staff.
