Why implement a disaster recovery solution

Last published : Aug 26, 2026
A DR solution is vital for businesses that rely on the availability of data.
A well-designed DR solution prepares a business for unexpected disasters and provides the following benefits in a DR situation:
  • Minimizes economic loss due to the unavailability or loss of data.
  • Provides a plan for the safe and orderly recovery of data in the event of a disaster.
  • Ensures safe and efficient recovery of data and services.
  • Minimizes any decision making during DR.
  • Reduces the reliance on key individuals.
Strategically planning a DR solution provides businesses with affordable ways to meet their service level agreements, comply with government regulations, and minimize their business risks.
Note: A DR solution requires a well-defined backup strategy. Refer to your backup product documentation for information on configuring backup.
