Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between backup and disaster recovery?

Backup is a copy of data; disaster recovery is the ability to restore whole services within an agreed time. You can have good backups and still take weeks to recover if there is no plan, no recovery infrastructure and no tested order of restoration.

What is the difference between disaster recovery and business continuity?

Disaster recovery restores IT systems; business continuity keeps the whole organisation operating during disruption. Business continuity also covers people, premises, suppliers and manual workarounds, and the DR plan is one part of it.

Should our DR site be in another emirate?

It should be far enough away that one local event cannot affect both sites, and close enough for acceptable network latency and staff access if needed. Many organisations pair a primary site in one emirate with a recovery site in another, or use a UAE cloud region as the recovery site.

How often should we test disaster recovery?

Test restores regularly, at least quarterly for critical systems, and run a larger failover or tabletop exercise at least once a year. Also test after major changes to systems or infrastructure, because changes are the most common reason runbooks stop working.

Can we use the cloud as our disaster recovery site?

Yes. Replicating critical servers to a cloud region avoids building a second data centre, and you mainly pay for storage until failover. Network design, identity, licensing and failback need careful planning, and some legacy systems may not run in the cloud.

How long does it take to put a DR solution in place?

A backup-based DR plan for a small estate can be designed and tested within weeks. Replication-based DR for many systems, with a recovery site and full testing, usually takes a few months. The business impact review at the start sets the scope and timeline.

Do we still need DR if our applications are in Microsoft 365 or SaaS?

Yes, in a different form. SaaS providers keep their platforms available, but they do not always protect against accidental deletion, malicious changes or retention gaps. A plan should cover SaaS data backup, identity recovery and what users do if a key SaaS service is unavailable.
