BACKUP VS. DISASTER RECOVERY

A backup gives you data. DR gives you a way back.

Backup answers “Do we have a copy?” Disaster recovery answers “How do we restore operations, in what order, and how long will it take?”

Backup

Creates recoverable copies of systems and data, with defined frequency and retention.

  • What is protected?
  • How often?
  • How long is it retained?
  • Where are copies stored?

Disaster Recovery

Turns those copies into an operational recovery process.

  • What comes back first?
  • Where will it run?
  • Who performs recovery?
  • How quickly must it work?
Backup is a component of disaster recovery. It is not the entire plan.

STOP GUESSING. START KNOWING.
