Abstract:
The risk of network failure—whether due to increasingly sophisticated cyberthreats or natural disasters—poses a significant threat to business continuity. An incident response and disaster recovery (DR) plan is essential for organizations to mitigate such risks. Traditionally, organizations preferred physical or on-premises infrastructure for backup and recovery, which was expensive and lacked scalability. However, with the advent of cloud storage, implementing a robust and scalable DR strategy has become more feasible, efficient, and cost-effective. This webinar will discuss the role of the cloud in enabling businesses to develop and implement robust and agile business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR) operations. Attendees will understand the latest strategies and technologies for implementing an effective cloud DR plan.

Key Takeaways: 

• Advantages of cloud-based DR over traditional DR solutions
• Key considerations for developing a resilient cloud DR strategy
• Best practices for automating and testing DR plans
• Cost-effective approaches to cloud DR implementation
• Real-world case studies of successful cloud DR deployments
