You can save time and money by properly scoping your Disaster Recovery (DR) capabilities prior to creating the actual DR plan. Properly scoping DR will prevent over spending and ensure a good return on investment.
The process of examining your DR plan can be broken down into a series of steps:
- Understand and measure the current DR plan.
- Determine what DR plans are necessary.
- Determine the extent of the ideal DR plan.
- Determine the cost of the ideal DR plan.
Use this tool to define the recovery objectives your organization requires and the necessary DR budget to realize those objectives.
