    1. Identify applications, data and the dependencies needed for recovery.

    Questions about this service

    Is every server restored in minutes?

    No universal recovery time is promised. Timing depends on the server, application, data, connectivity and agreed recovery plan.

    What does failover mean?

    A working copy runs in the cloud while the original server is recovered, where covered and technically suitable.

    Are backups tested?

    The service includes automatic daily backup tests. We also agree what application and user checks are needed.

    Does this replace a continuity plan?

    No. People need agreed access routes, responsibilities and communication arrangements as well.
