Disaster Recovery “Benchmark” Data
How many companies that invested in disaster recovery are completely confident that they could recover all their applications & data in the event of a disaster?
• 24% SCUG 9/11• 27.5% HUG 9/12• 26% KC RUG 10/18• 10.5% NY/NJ RUG 10/18• 27% MARUG 10/21• 10.5% RMUG 10/25• 20.5% OCEAN 11/19• 6.7% InFocus 12/4

What do these numbers reveal about DR?
and Proven Recoverability.
There is a GAP between Disaster Recovery
EXPERIENCE. INNOVATION. Velocity Proprietary and Confidential 8
Why the gap?
• “DR Team” already has full-time job- Production support always trumps DR- There will always be production issues to resolve
• Lack of executive sponsorship• Lack of testing
- Testing is not practical- Business can’t or won’t engage
• Testing not complete• Too much time since last test
- Plan not up to date- Too many changes to Production
• Not a business priority- Not perceived as important
• Lack of skills, understanding, funding, etc.• Uncertainty of staff availability in actual regional disaster event

They Assume Recoverability!

How can we permanently change the way our organization approaches disaster recovery?
1. Scratch out Disaster Recovery, write Recoverability
- Disaster Recovery Recoverability Plan
- Disaster Recovery Recoverability Spending
- Disaster Recovery Recoverability Solution
- Disaster Recovery Recoverability Projects
EXPERIENCE. INNOVATION. Velocity Proprietary and Confidential 11
How can we permanently change the way our organization approaches disaster recovery?
1. Scratch out Disaster Recovery, write Recoverability
2. Define Recoverability
EXPERIENCE. INNOVATION. Velocity Proprietary and Confidential 12
The Velocity definition of Recoverability
The Power to Recover Your Business Applications & Data
EXPERIENCE. INNOVATION. Velocity Proprietary and Confidential 13
How can we permanently change the way our organization approaches disaster recovery?
1. Scratch out Disaster Recovery, write Recoverability
2. Define Recoverability
3. Does Recoverability Matter?
EXPERIENCE. INNOVATION. Velocity Proprietary and Confidential 14
Does Recoverability Matter?
• Most would say yes, but results reveal otherwise…
(GAP between Disaster Recovery & Recoverability is not new)
• Did you know?- SOX, HIPAA, PCI, FERPA do not require Recoverability
(at least Not Yet)- The Disaster Recovery Check Box vs. Proven Recoverability- How many CXOs are aware that their companies compliance with SOX,
HIPAA, etc does not actually mean they are Recoverable?

4. What would it take to Prove Recoverability?
EXPERIENCE. INNOVATION. Velocity Proprietary and Confidential 16
What would it take to be completely confident that you
could recover all your applications & data in the event of a disaster?
EXPERIENCE. INNOVATION. Velocity Proprietary and Confidential 17
What would it take to Prove Recoverability?
1) Plan it – Define all components required (create a matrix)2) Build it – Implement all the pieces to the puzzle3) Test it – Keep testing all pieces until you get it right4) Prove it – Testing that includes business users & processes5) Maintain it – Keep yourself Recoverable at ALL times6) Guard it – Eliminate every potential single point of failure
The goal is for everyone in your business to be completely confident you are Recoverable!

5. Eliminate single points of failure
EXPERIENCE. INNOVATION. Velocity Proprietary and Confidential 20
Single Points of Failure in Disaster Recovery
• Not enough DR capacity to run Production
• Recovery facility in same FEMA region
• Recovery team in same region as Production
• Production team responsible for recovery
• Recovery depends on “one” person
• DR “team” lacks application expertiseJD Edwards/Technical Application ExpertiseE1, Dev, Web, JAS, 3rd party tools, etc
• Out of date recovery plan, untested plan
• Incomplete testing, unsuccessful or infrequent testing
• DR is an IT exercise rather than Business Process Validation

Make the business case
• “The Problem”• Common Drivers
- Compliance- Executive sponsor- Customers- An event
• Tips- Tie DR to business initiatives- Speak the truth- Show cost savings- Can you chargeback the business?
