backups, businesses can recover lost data after a ransomware attack, hardware failure, accidental
deletion and numerous other incidents.

2. What are the problems in old backup system?

Answer:

1) Recovery failure
2) Data corruption
3) Broken backup chains
4) Infrequent backups
5) Slow recovery
6) Limited recovery options
7) System inefficiency
8) Vulnerability to ransomware
9) Vulnerability to on-site disasters

3. Why you are select DR to backup data, what is the reason?

Answer:

To reduce the recovery failure or any corruption during data copying DR is best approach to achieve our
goals

8. What are the disadvantages of DR System?

Answer:

Disadvantages

A. Dependency on a service provider: Many companies cite a dependence on a third-party

provider as the main drawback where DRaaS is concerned. Given how crucial a DR plan remains
to modern operations, many simply feel safer taking care of recovery point objectives (RPOs)
and timelines themselves. Ultimately, you’ll be at the mercy of another company during the
disaster process. If they experience issues or delays, you won’t be able to do anything, and will
still feel the sting.
B. Potential migration issues: Given that DRaaS storage happens entirely independently from the
rest of your business infrastructure, you also face the risk of migration problems if disaster does
occur. This is especially likely in the case of a cloud-based DRaaS, but even a second
infrastructure in a data centre won’t help if you have no way to access it in-house when
necessary.

9. Which technologies are used in DR System?

Answer:?

10. When disaster happen how data is recovered?

Answer:

According to situation many types of disaster can be occur, for example security issues, data loss power
issue etc.

Answer:

location, and about when does it occur is already discussed as :
