Business Continuity > Recovery
To ensure fast and complete recovery from an IT disaster, it's essential that you implement a carefully conceived business continuity plan that includes power protection and robust hardware and software that lets you return to full operations as soon as possible and minimizes potential damage to your IT infrastructure and impact to your bottom line.


High Availability
It's important that your infrastructure offers high-availability features during a disaster. Virtualization is one of the best ways to ensure this: system, data and applications are encapsulated into a single virtual machine file system, which transforms and simplifies tasks such as server migration, backup and recovery, replication and disaster recovery. This allows these tasks to be treated as a simple data migration, file copy or file export activity; thus, the recovery process remains independent of the recovery hardware-one of the key benefits of virtualization.

For businesses with a standard infrastructure, a business continuity plan that includes the latest server hardware and software from HP ensures that mission-critical data and applications will remain available. To learn more about high-availability servers from HP, click here.

Disaster Recovery
Developing and implementing a disaster recovery plan requires a process-one that can be considerably simplified by the use of appropriate technology. It involves identifying all potential risk factors-natural (fire, storms, water damage/flooding, earthquakes or extreme weather) or human (hackers, exploits, security breaches, terrorist attacks, crime or vandalism)-that may threaten your IT infrastructure, and then planning exactly how to resume full operation.

Power Protection
Having uninterrupted power while waiting for emergency power to kick in, or until utility power is restored, is extremely critical to your business' operational sustainability. Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) units protect computers, data centers, telecommunications equipment and other electrical equipment from a number of problems such as voltage surges, spikes and sags, to total power failure. UPS units can be small enough to back up a single computer or large enough to support entire data centers or buildings.
