Business continuity and disaster recovery practices have come a long way from the days of simply storing information on backup tapes offsite. Today, companies with mission critical applications know that they have to be prepared for hardware failure or losing access to their equipments.

Penta's objectives of disaster recovery planning include:

• Providing our clients with a sense of security
• Minimizing risk of delays
• Guaranteeing the reliability of standby systems
• Providing a standard for testing the plan.
• Minimizing decision-making during a disaster

Many businesses are now turning to Penta’s world-class data centers in combination with their own backup systems for a more complete business continuity solution.
