Achieving Business Continuity with Cloud: DRaaS Explained
With the list of possible disruptive events that can take a business offline growing in number year over year, it's no surprise so many organizations' leaders are now asking IT departments to strengthen their stance against these threats. But what role can DRaaS and the cloud play in ensuring this greater resiliency?
DRaaS to Cloud: What are the Benefits?
Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS), like its cousin Backup as a Service (BaaS), provides technology to ensure business continuity, a target site and infrastructure, and the management of the process that it takes to ensure its success—all delivered to you as a service. The key for DRaaS is that the target site and infrastructure are in the cloud, rather than in a on-premises datacenter as a traditional DR solution might usually entail. The management is provided by a team of professionals who live and breathe DR and backups, which allows your IT staff to reallocate valuable time to business projects of greater daily importance.

It also encourages cloud-hesitant IT members to learn the ropes of the AWS environment in a non-production scenario.
