In a world driven by data, the importance of disaster recovery solutions cannot be overstated. From natural disasters to cyberattacks and human errors, the risks of data loss continues to grow alongside businesses. Today, we will cover the 3 common mistakes companies make when creating a DR strategy, key steps for building an effective DR strategy for your business, and the ways Opti9 can protect your data in AWS.

Since its launch as the first public cloud in 2006, AWS has been a leader in cloud technology, helping organizations cut costs and simplify the way they build infrastructure and access their data. While the public cloud has continued to grow in popularity with time, many organizations still find themselves stressing the task of migrating or maintaining their environments efficiently. Overall, 95% of organizations cite lack of expertise as their main struggle in leveraging the public cloud.

Businesses are facing threats every day, ranging from natural disasters to cyberattacks. When it comes to ensuring your business is protected, two critical concepts play a pivotal role in ensuring an organization’s resilience: disaster recovery (DR) and high availability (HA). While both are integral components of a robust business continuity strategy, they serve distinct purposes and are two sides of the resilience coin.

Data security and resilience are non-negotiable for businesses since downtime can result in significant financial losses and irreparable damage to their reputation.
