When determining the right Disaster Recovery services for your organization, there are three aspects to consider:
- Severity of System – Each organization differs based on priorities and on how they engage with their clients. For example, your Sage application will likely take priority over your Intranet.
- Recovery Point Objective (RPO) – Point in the past to which you will recover from (maximum amount of data that can be lost based on the time between your last back-up and the unplanned outage.) Essentially, RPO is about how much data can be lost before it seriously impacts the organization.
- Recovery Time Objective (RTO) – Refers to the point in time that you will be up and running again. The gap between the disaster and the RTO is the timeframe for which your application or network will be down and non-functioning (“downtime.”) Some organizations can withstand a downtime of days while for others, just minutes of downtime can be devasting to the business.

Cloud at Work offers a cost-effective solution for Disaster Recovery where businesses determine their level of risk and spend accordingly. In addition to knowing exactly where their data is backed up, our clients know how and when they will have it restored should a disaster occur.
