What is Disaster Recovery?

Plans and systems for restoring operations after major failures

Why It Matters

Disaster recovery ensures your business can survive major outages or incidents

Real-World Example

Having a secondary data centre that can take over if the primary fails

“Understanding terms like Disaster Recovery matters because it helps you have better conversations with developers and make smarter decisions about your software. You do not need to be technical. You just need to know enough to ask the right questions.”
