Disaster Recovery with Hybrid CloudWhen Minutes Matter MostLarry LangPresident and CEO


Downtime tolerance decreases asbusiness moves IT closer to customers

ESG Research Report2010

56% of companies with fewer than

25 servers said they could withstand only one hour or less of downtime before losing revenue or suffering

other significant adversities.

Symantec SMB Disaster Preparedness Survey

2011

28% Only

of SMBs have tested their backup plan.

Aberdeen Group 2012

Downtime costs a mid-sized company

an average of

an hour.


Case Study: False Security in New Orleans

• October 25, 2010

– Five years after Hurricane Katrina

• Parish of Orleans Civil District Court mortgage and conveyance database crashes

– Index of thousands of mortgage records, filling two floors

• Cloud backup service stopped receiving good updates in July, older records purged to save money

– No testing to reveal problem

• New Orleans with no real estate records or transactions for over 3 months

– About 179,000 paper recordsmanually re-entered

• Clerk of Court Dale Atkins still employed

– Acting CTO Tynia Landry is not


Case Study: Prepared for Super Storm Sandy

• October 29-November 3, 2012

– Super Storm Sandy

• 24 Seven International

– International staffing company for creative industries

• Payroll and personnel records in Manhattan office

– Lost power for almost a week

• Recovery system allowed rapid shift of operations to Los Angeles office

– “We tested each recovery node to make sure it would come up OK, and we tested the synchronization between offices. During the storm, everything came up right away, according to plan. Working with the staff in LA, we were able to bring everything up within an hour.“

— Doug Feltman, director of systems and applications


Lessons Learned: Business IT Disaster Recovery

• Natural disasters grab headlines, but mundane problems more common

– Facilities (fire, plumbing...)

– Hardware (disk failure, board burnout...)

– Software (BSOD, update gone rogue...)

– User Error (deletion regret...)

• Big gap between “ought to work” and “known to work”– Frequent testing only way to

bridge this gap

• Backups automated, yet most recovery still manual

• It’s not about backup, but how fast you’re back up


Traditional Backup• Lengthy restore—hours

or days

• Infrequent, inconvenient testing

• Unwieldy, unsecure offsite media

Issues with current options forprotecting servers, applications and data

Replicated Data Center• Costs more than double

• Complex to integrateand maintain multiple components

Cloud Backup (Storage)• Longer restore because of

limited download

• Waiting for media shipments

7 vendor products230 manual pages

>700 lines of scripts3 TB download

>6 months @ 1.5 Mbps>3 days @ 100 Mbps

“More than 50% of the time, a full recovery attempt from tape will result in failure.”
