If my school teacher explained so patiently and politely, i would have never taken a leave. So lucid explanation.. His voice is euphonic too.

After the most important question (downtime), you have to ask yourself "Am I willing to put up with the security hasle of properly securing your DR site so that ransomware software can't jump environments. I work in hosting, and I can't count how many times I've seen DR sites get ransomed because they wanted full interconnects between the environments.

For Interview Enthusiasts :
Recovery point objective (RPO) is defined as the maximum amount of data – as measured by time – that can be lost after a recovery from a disaster, failure, or comparable event before data loss will exceed what is acceptable to an organization.

Amazon is putting 4 different DR strategy based on the cost and SLA, last one and most cost-effective DR solution is backup. you can recover your primary site failure using backup solution as well, however it will increase RTO. I have been 13 years of experience on the backup field, i would like to highlight main purpose of having backup is data protection, but also you can make data migration, data protection, ransomware protection, data protection, data analytic, DR Solution, etc.

For Interview Enthusiasts: Determining an RTO Recovery Time Objective
RTOs are used to measure how much time it takes after the disaster for the IT department to recover the data. For their assessment basis, RTOs represent the overall needs of your business and determine how long your business can survive without IT infrastructure and services.

Just one opinion, this seems more fit the title "Disaster Recovery vs. Backup Restore "

How does Disaster Recovery relate to *replication* then?

Rather than DR vs Backup, I think the better one is DR vs HA, I think they most often get confused with eachother.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge ... Awesome !!!

[MohamedABahloul]

now tell me what is is the different between D.R and business continuity

[bigpan]

if you talk about DR, you should say something about RTO RPO at least

[wake.up.and.be.awesome]

Why does DR Require you to have a human say start? Why not automatically?

Misleading approach, some clients cannot afford a "streaming" DR strategy, leaving them with back up as strategy, yes, back up is a DR approach
