This involves a quick Recovery Point Objective (RPO) and Recovery Time Objective (RTO). Hot DR is ideally used and absolutely vital for Mission Critical applications such as core financial and banking applications.

warm disaster recovery representation on gcp disaster recovery services

Focus on applications and infrastructure with a slightly higher RPO and RTO. May involve non-core banking applications, DMS, MOSS and print and file servers.

cold disaster recovery representation on gcp disaster recovery services

This has a slightly higher side of data recovery time compared to the Hot and Warm DR, involving a higher RTO and RPO. Used ideally for Non Critical applications.

backup as a service representation on gcp disaster recovery services

It involves backing up your systems and restoring them from backup in case of any disaster. We implement strategies that help reduce your backup footprint using a method of deduplicating data at each node, job, and site. As a result, you get speed backup and faster recoveries. Cloud4C is known for its global deduplication systems that efficiently execute bare metal recoveries.

Security and Compliance during Disaster Recovery

Disaster Recovery is a complex and multi-faceted operation and during a disaster, all your resources and energies are focused to ensure a speedy and complete recovery. However, security attacks and data breaches are more likely to happen when you are in the most vulnerable state. That’s why it’s of paramount importance that systems and data are always secure (at rest or in transit), especially during a DR operation.

Cloud4C frameworks, methodologies, processes and people are pre-compliant with leading regulations and standards in the industry and in different geographies. This is why you can trust us to manage and augment your Business Continuity programs.

GCP Draas - FAQs

  • What is Disaster Recovery in GCP?

    -

    Disaster Recovery in GCP is the historical point from where businesses restore their data which has been hosted on Google Cloud Platform.

    This mechanism helps the company resume its operations in time if a disaster, natural or man-made, happens.

    Disaster Recovery in GCP is an accurate means of avoiding financial and reputational damage due to data loss.

  • Why should I choose Google Cloud for Disaster Recovery Planning?

    -

    Google Cloud can significantly reduce the costs associated with RTO (recovery time objective) and RPO (Recovery point objective) compared to achieving RTO and RPO requirements on-premises.

    DR on Google Cloud offers strong redundancy, better scalability and agility, and a chance to host your infrastructure on a global network.

    It ensures that your business will easily recover from unexpected downtimes during a natural or a man-made disaster.
