Outsourcing and replication considerations in disaster recovery planning

摘要: Purpose – This paper aims to use a case study approach compare the performance of traditional models and an in‐house outsourced solution assess importance adequate network bandwidth in remote replication process.Design/methodology/approach Using authors’ autonomous computer system, cost/benefits five different disaster recovery (DR) are determined reported table. Further, experimental data gleaned from series updates on replicas connected via internet reported.Findings The results indicate that lack flexibility. virtualized replica model similar terms investment cost, but former offers attractive sound reliability characteristics, provided bandwidth. minimum practical speed support system was 10 Mbs.Research limitations/implications herein on...
