Disaster Recovery as a Service

Is Disaster Recovery as a Service Right for You?

Unlike traditional disaster recovery, which often involves complex, costly on-site systems, DRaaS is managed by a third-party provider. This allows companies to back up their systems in the provider’s secure cloud environment.
