See how disaster recovery has evolved as a result of today’s advances in technology. Virtualization and cloud innovation has made disaster recovery a must-have solution for companies of all sizes due to its scalability, lower cost, and improved efficiency. Not very long ago disaster recovery was a luxury afforded by only the very large companies due to the prohibitive cost and effort required. Frequently even these large companies were unable to justify the investment and went without a disaster recovery plan. Today, virtualization and cloud enables companies of all sizes to implement a scalable, highly efficient disaster recovery plan without a huge investment.
