According to the article:-
(When Disaster Strikes)
- More than one-third (36%)of organizations lost one or more critical applications, VMs, or critical data files for hours at a time over the past year, while nearly one in five companies have lost one or more critical applications over a period of days.
- Even more alarming, one in four respondents said that they had lost most or all of a datacenter for hours or even days!
- Reported losses from outages ranged from a few thousand dollars to millions of dollars with nearly 20% indicating losses of more than $50,000 to over $5 million
(How about the plan)
- More than 60% of those who took the survey do not have a fully documented DR plan and another 40% admitted
- The DR plan they currently have did not prove very useful when it was called on to respond to their worst disaster recovery event or scenario
- When companies do test their DR plans, the results are most disturbing. More than 65% do not pass their own tests!
