Hyperconverged infrastructure solutions are making substantial inroads into a broader set of use cases and deployment options, but limitations exist. I& leaders should view HCI solutions as tools in the toolbox, rather than panaceas for all IT infrastructure problems.

Modern DR knocks the socks off traditional DR: It’s faster, cheaper, less resource-intensive, and doesn’t lock up organizational capital and human assets.

The biggest boost that modern DR provides is push-button DR. There’s no need to pull out the plan, assemble the team, and circle the wagons. It's easy to achieve a low Recovery Time Objective (RTO) with the right technology.

Read the tech brief, Stone Age vs. Space Age DR, to learn the benefits of modern DR, including why:

• Moving away from multiple point solutions and physical infrastructure is a good thing
• Many modern DR approaches use Disaster Recovery as a Service, which combines backup and DR, to improve performance, security and integrity, plus lower costs
• An on-demand DR model can help you achieve low RTO, not only for disasters, but also for scheduled outages, migrations, and data center upgrades too
