Today, businesses operate in uncertainties ranging from pandemics to cyberattacks to natural disasters. To achieve their objectives, be it business agility, customer service excellence or employee productivity, they need to have business processes that are up and constantly running without disruptions. To effectively counter the growing uncertainties and to conduct business efficiently, companies need to have strong business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR) plans that minimize downtime and help organizations to keep functioning even when there is any disruption.

Businesses have been familiar with the concept of backups for decades. Most businesses today employ different backup solutions to replicate their data in safe locations. However, the need for continuity of business can only be achieved by having a backup solution. As businesses expand and their reputation soars, being available to customers and other stakeholders is increasingly becoming important. BCDR is one such strategy that is helping organizations stay all the time afloat.
