Disaster Recovery

Information about disaster recovery hot sites is all over the Web these days, and you can get it almost with a single mouse click. Just perform a simple Web search and you'll find dozens of websites for disaster recovery companies. So what's the big deal in the business world about disaster recovery? Allow us to explain.

Let's be frank: If your business buildings burned down right now, how would you make sure your employees would be as safe as possible? If a flood, tornado or earthquake occurred and stopped your business for a time, how would you recover from the disaster? You need to ask yourself these questions, and when you do, you'll realize that it is critical to have an effective emergency contingency plan in place for every major kind of disaster that could occur to your company. Thankfully, it doesn't have to take weeks to figure out the best way to recover from a disaster. There are companies and services that can help you plan quickly so that you feel prepared for anything that may happen to your business facilities or employees.

A disaster recovery hot site is a place where you can go to continue conducting your business in the event of an emergency. A hot site is fully operational, so you don't have to worry about carting your own computers out of your building in the middle of a fire or other disaster. The hot site will have the necessary hardware, software and networking capabilities to allow you to go on working without interruption. You'll have the office space, equipment and furniture you need.

Another disaster recovery option for your business is a cold site – similar to a hot site, but different in that you only receive office space; you must provide the necessary equipment to keep doing business. Most hot and cold sites cost a monthly rental fee, and many include data backup services that store your data regularly at the recovery site in case a disaster strikes your primary business place.
