Leveraging Cloud And Colocation To Avoid Downtime

Duration: 1 hour

IT teams in organizations of all sizes are under increasing pressure to avoid unplanned downtime and maintain high availability. Growing app reliance in every business sector, near 24-x-7 data demands and new technologies (IoT, AI, etc.) all require consistency when it comes to data center performance. Add to that unprecedented costs due to outages and cyber-security threats and the need for high levels of Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery (BC/DR) are clear.

Fortunately, IT leaders and executives can choose from a broad array of BC/DR options to safeguard data and meet challenging business requirements. In this webinar, we’ll discuss the advantages and limitations of the three primary BC/DR models:

We’ll look at these three approaches in-depth to determine which BC/DR model optimally suits your data center, and whether the cost of what you wish for matches the reality of your budget. We’ll also address key aspects relevant to each model, such as dual colocation methods for on-premises DR, advantages of a private, dedicated connection for virtualized environments and the ability to “right fit” applications using the hybrid BC/DR model.
 
It stands to reason that it’s critical to think ahead and start planning now for the future, especially as new innovations are constantly being adopted.  We’ll discuss the importance of making the right BC/DR choice in the present for capitalizing on future potential. For example, this might include evolving from a Classic model to leveraging a virtualized solution for faster DR.
