Ziff Davis Enterprise Virtual Tradeshow:
Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity
Keeping Your Business Going
When the Unexpected Happens
Event date: July 30, 2008
Disaster recovery, also known as business continuity, also known as continuous data protection, has been a common practice for as long as businesses have kept records. But its real meaning didn’t become clear for many until Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans in August 2005. Hundreds of businesses in Louisiana and southern Mississippi were forced to invoke plans that hadn’t been used before but had to work perfectly at the time.
There are many aspects to disaster recovery that warrant exploration. What kind of event constitutes a disaster? For many, it would not take an event the size of Katrina to put a business out of commission. In fact, small businesses may have a more pressing need to establish a sound disaster recovery plan than the largest corporations, which may be able to absorb blows on a local level. IT managers need to ask themselves if their current disaster recovery plan is sufficient, and what if any new technologies should be deployed to make a plan more reliable and more flexible depending on the crisis.
Join us at the Ziff Davis Enterprise Disaster Recovery Virtual Tradeshow and gain insight into how to prepare your company for the worst, while expecting the best.
