About this talk
The landscape of disaster recovery is undergoing a significant transformation as cloud computing becomes increasingly central to business operations. In this context, disaster recovery strategies are transitioning also. This is not without its challenges - it involves navigating new technological terrains, adapting to different operational models, and managing the complexities of cloud environments. Once confined to self-controlled data centers, disaster recovery exercises now need to be reimagined in the dynamic and often decentralized realm of the cloud.
In this session, Ray Holloman (Founder and CEO of Holloman Solutions) delves into the intricacies of adapting disaster recovery processes to the cloud. He will explore the unique hurdles encountered when dealing with multiple cloud providers, shed light on the integration of on-premise workloads with cloud platforms, and the discuss critical role of testing within these new environments. Moreover, Ray explores the impact of external factors such as third-party testing and the necessity of staying actively involved in the monitoring and reporting processes throughout the transition to cloud-based disaster recovery.
Key takeaways include:
- Understand the Shift: Explore the fundamental changes and challenges in moving disaster recovery strategies from on-premise to cloud environments.
- Navigate Multi-Cloud Complexities: Discover how to manage disaster recovery across various cloud platforms and integrate them with existing on-premise systems.
- Redefine Testing Approaches: Establish new testing patterns and strategies tailored for cloud-based disaster recovery scenarios.
- Key Considerations for Transition: Identify key factors that will allow you to effectively adapt your disaster recovery testing as you shift workloads to the cloud.
