Disaster Recovery & Business Continuity

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) brings several viable alternatives to traditional database backup and recovery mechanisms. Highly-available, highly-redundant, and scalable storage has evolved to become a central component of the service offering from most vendors.

Instead of building brick and mortar failover datacenters, some organizations are opting instead to create physical standby databases in the cloud that auto-scale to production capacity in the event of an actual failure at their primary datacenter.

With the easy point-in-time snapshot functionality provided by virtualized infrastructure, new instances can be brought online nightly to serve up compute capacity for reporting or data warehousing operations, and then shut down as soon as they are no longer in use.

You only pay for what you use, so creative use of IaaS can have a considerable, and often immediate, impact on your bottom line.
