WHAT IS DISASTER RECOVERY AS A SERVICE?
(DRaaS)
DISASTER RECOVERY AS A SERVICE (DRaaS)
1. The replication and hosting of physical and virtual servers to a second location, either to a second appliance or the cloud, which is usually located in a distant second site. In the event of a man-made or natural catastrophe, those replicated systems and data can be booted and accessed.

SO, HOW IS THIS DIFFERENT FROM TRADITIONAL DISASTER RECOVERY?
You don’t need to build or manage a secondary site.
No extra I.T. resources needed to manage or test.
Lower disaster recovery costs.
DISASTER RECOVERY AS A SERVICE MEANS
END USER
Recovered & Virtualized
...but users can continue to work with recovered apps virtualized from the appliance or within the cloud.
Servers and applications are down...
