Overview

Virtualization has changed the way organizations approach disaster recovery, as it has introduced technologies that allow for a more efficient and simple restoration of data and services after a disaster. Still, DR is an ongoing process, and an effective strategy requires in-depth understanding of the tools and policies used in the disaster recovery plan. And it’s not just admins who need to be in-the-know. All IT staff members and key business personnel must be trained in DR event management.

In this interactive classroom, we cover key knowledge about implementing a disaster recovery strategy, taking advantage of DR tools and setting processes and policies.

Lesson 1: Disaster recovery isn’t a technology, it’s a way of thinking. In this tip, an expert outlines how to approach creating an effective DR plan, including tool selection, storage considerations and more.

Lesson 2: IT admins have a wide range of tool options for disaster recovery. While native hypervisor tools may have all the capabilities that smaller organizations need, larger environments may require the use of third-party tools. This podcast covers selecting tools that will best monitor your environment, manage resources and execute the recovery process in the event of a disaster.

Lesson 3: A disaster recovery plan is ongoing and continually changing along with the business. Your successful DR strategy will require up-front considerations and ongoing maintenance and documentation. In this webcast, an expert delves into the many steps of disaster recovery planning and how to set effective policies and processes.

Lesson 4: Quiz. After completing the three lessons on disaster recovery, test your knowledge by taking our quiz.
