This paper talks about Disaster Recovery as Business Continuity. IT professionals no longer can afford the luxury of removing information from service for any reason. Businesses simply cannot tolerate the downtime needed to back up data, run batch processing, maintain various systems, and perform a wide variety of required computing processes. In the event of computer disaster or other interruption, rapid restart capability has become mandatory for businesses of all types. A successful restart program is a function of a well-architected and managed IT infrastructure. Built correctly, an information infrastructure provides for high reliability to mission-critical systems and provides for disaster recovery at minimal cost.
