Even organisations that have a business continuity plan can still be faced with the down-time problems associated with server or network failure. As a result, business may be disrupted for days or weeks before facilities, equipment and personnel are brought together to resume operations. No matter how much or how little data is unrecoverable after a server crash, there will be a significant amount of downtime before the recoverable data is accessible to users and applications.
Business Continuity
Business Continuity planning is more than just planning for a disaster; it is planning for the controlled continuity of business when the unexpected but planned for event occurs. With careful forethought, these events can be planned for in advance so that normal operations can be resumed as soon as possible and data loss brought to a minimum or even eliminated.
