Workload mobility – the next step in business continuity planning

No-one can predict what the future holds and as recent events have shown, you never know what’s just around the corner. Service providers have offered monitoring, testing, backup management and disaster recovery services for years but the scope of recovery needs has changed.
Recent ransomware attacks have caused even the most established enterprises weeks of business disruption. Recovery solutions need to rewind data quickly and efficiently and keep downtime to the absolute minimum.
Business continuity and data backup services exist to recover systems and data in the event of a disaster. But what is now also business critical is the ability to move workloads quickly and seamlessly in response to changes in business requirements driven by internal and external factors, including threats.
What businesses need is flexibility. The flexibility to scale up or down, move from on-premise to cloud, move between clouds, change the geographical location of your data, and separate workloads onto different platforms – according to need and cost.
Business continuity services are there to guide your business through the very worst. You never expect this to happen, but events can and do – we have all learned that these past months. The complexities of moving to mass remote working have meant that agility, mobility, scalability and data security and protection have become even more critical to prevent interruptions to business operations.
