What is a Disaster Recovery Plan?
Disaster recovery (DR) is an organisation’s ability to restore access and functionality to IT infrastructure after a disaster event, whether natural or caused by human action (or error).
- DR is a subset of business continuity, explicitly focusing on ensuring that the IT systems that support critical business functions are operational as soon as possible after a disruptive event occurs.
- Disaster recovery planning is crucial for any business, especially those operating either partially or entirely in the cloud.
- Disasters that interrupt service and cause data loss can happen anytime without warning—your network could have an outage, a critical bug could get released, or your business might have to weather a natural disaster.
- Organizations with robust and well-tested disaster recovery strategies can minimize the impact of disruptions, achieve faster recovery times, and resume core operations rapidly when things go awry.

Every business needs to be able to recover quickly from any event that stops day-to-day operations, no matter what industry or size.

How disaster recovery works?
Disaster recovery relies on having a solid plan to get critical applications and infrastructure up and running after an outage—ideally within minutes.
An effective DR plan addresses three different elements for recovery:
- Preventive: Ensuring your systems are as secure and reliable as possible, using tools and techniques to prevent a disaster from occurring in the first place. This may include backing up critical data or continuously monitoring environments for configuration errors and compliance violations.
- Detective: For rapid recovery, you’ll need to know when a response is necessary. These measures focus on detecting or discovering unwanted events as they happen in real time.
- Corrective: These measures are aimed at planning for potential DR scenarios, ensuring backup operations to reduce impact, and putting recovery procedures into action to restore data and systems quickly when the time comes.
Typically, disaster recovery involves securely replicating and backing up critical data and workloads to a secondary location or multiple locations—disaster recovery sites. A disaster recovery site can be used to recover data from the most recent backup or a previous point in time. Organizations can also switch to using a DR site if the primary location and its systems fail due to an unforeseen event until the primary one is restored.
*What is a disaster recovery site?
It’s a second, physical data center that’s costly to build and maintain—and with the cloud, made unnecessary.
