Busting Myths About IT Disaster Recovery & Business Continuity – David Hall
Does moving your systems to the cloud eliminate the need for a disaster recovery strategy? Is it accurate that high availability renders DR obsolete? This episode of the Resilient Journey has a bit of a MythBusters vibe to it.
Host Mark Hoffman interviews David Hall, disaster recovery architect for the City of Tulsa. David explains the connectivity between business continuity and disaster recovery, and the need for developing a completely fleshed-out backup strategy.
David and Mark talk about ways to interact with our IT partners and how to translate tech-speak into language anyone can understand…and be sure to listen until the end as David drops a nugget about how to approach IT to get the conversation started.
This is a good one.
