Reducing the Cost of Planned Maintenance
Every business continuity plan is designed to ensure that critical business services are available to employees, customers, suppliers, and other entities which need access to these services. With business continuity plans in place, the enterprise is prepared to address and overcome natural disasters including hurricanes, tornados, floods, and earthquakes, as well as malicious attacks ranging from terrorism to virus and denial of service attacks to avoid unplanned downtime. However, no matter the level of investment, even the most detailed plan cannot completely eliminate the need for planned downtime to perform periodic maintenance.

Architecting the 'Right' Continuous Availability and Disaster Recovery Environment
Architecting the “right” continuous availability (CA) and disaster recover (DR) environment can be a difficult, if not daunting task. However, by understanding which applications in your environment are critical to the successful operation of your business, the task becomes a bit less troublesome. Short of performing a complete business impact analysis (BIA), which is a time consuming and costly exercise itself, there are ways to determine what your availability needs are and in which direction your should turn for a solution to solve the problem.
