Disaster Recovery

IBM’s System Z mainframes are famed for their high availability characteristics, but some events can result in significant application outages within even the most resilient setup.

Disaster Recovery Module

Our Disaster Recovery module is a critical component of our Mainframe Availability and Resilience Service (ZMARS). It evaluates and enhances your disaster recovery capabilities to ensure your organisation can respond effectively and promptly to major outages where you can no longer conduct business from your primary production site.

Importance of a Disaster Recovery Plan

By having a well-structured and thoroughly tested disaster recovery plan, you can significantly reduce the downtime associated with site failures, ensuring that your business operations can resume quickly and efficiently, minimising financial and operational impacts.

Governmental and industry regulatory bodies require adherence to strict disaster recovery requirements. A disaster recovery plan is essential to ensure compliance with these legal and regulatory requirements, avoiding potential fines and other legal consequences.

Demonstrating that you have robust measures in place to protect data and maintain operations in the face of disasters builds trust with your customers and stakeholders, ensuring business continuity and safeguarding your company’s reputation.
