When disaster strikes, you better have a solid plan for where you’ll recover your operations. Join me, W. Curtis Preston, and Prasanna Malaiyandi, as we explore the nitty-gritty details of your three main options for a disaster recovery site.

We’ll dig into the pros, cons, risks, and costs associated with rolling your own DR site, hiring a third-party service, or leveraging the public cloud. Each path has its twists and turns. How do you keep a secondary site in sync? What if a regional disaster takes down your DR provider? Can the cloud flex to meet your recovery needs? Tune in for straight-shooting answers.

This episode tackles the tough questions so you can make informed, bulletproof decisions on housing your failover infrastructure. As always, I’m drawing from decades of experience as a recovering backup admin, and I've designed this podcast just for pros like yourself.

Batten down the hatches and prepare to take notes - it’s time to build a life raft for your data!
