Disaster Recovery White Papers

Classes of Recovery

Overview Backup and recovery solutions are often thought of as expensive ways for IT personnel to have peace of mind in the event of an interruption to important business functions. This is true in many cases because the solutions are based on budgetary constraints instead of business needs. Enterprises would benefit instead by developing a methodology to determine the characteristics of a recovery, and by placing each business function into an appropriate class of recovery. By classifying each business function and assigning a corresponding priority, performing an actual recovery will be more successful and will result in smaller loss to the company in the event of an outage.
