Disaster Recovery: Are You Prepared?

Overview Scores of IT infrastructure professionals have been working night and day to recover data centers that were either devastated or put out of service due to Hurricane Katrina. The lucky ones, which were prepared for such a catastrophic disaster, recovered their systems at alternative locations weeks ago and are now in the process of planning an orderly migration back to their old data center, or in some cases, a new data center. The less fortunate ones who did not have a solid disaster recovery plan are still struggling to deliver mission critical and financial data to their respective business teams.
