Frequently Asked Questions
How does disaster recovery work for Florida businesses?
Florida businesses face unique risks from hurricanes, flooding, and power outages. Our DR plans include cloud-based backups stored in geographically diverse data centers, automatic failover to out-of-state infrastructure during storms, and documented procedures for remote work activation. We also provide pre-hurricane checklists and post-storm recovery support.
What are RTO and RPO?
RTO (Recovery Time Objective) is how quickly your systems need to be back online after a disaster. RPO (Recovery Point Objective) is how much data you can afford to lose, measured in time. For example, an RTO of 4 hours means your systems will be restored within 4 hours. An RPO of 1 hour means you'll lose at most 1 hour of data. We help you define these based on your business needs.
How often should we test our disaster recovery plan?
We recommend quarterly DR testing for critical systems and annual full-scale DR drills. Additionally, we perform pre-hurricane season reviews every May to ensure your plan is current. Regular testing is the only way to ensure your plan will work when you need it.
Can you help with hurricane season IT preparedness?
Yes, hurricane preparedness is a core part of our Florida-focused DR services. We provide pre-season infrastructure reviews, ensure cloud backups are current, verify failover systems, distribute remote work procedures to staff, and provide priority support during and after storms.
What's the cost of not having a disaster recovery plan?
The average cost of IT downtime is $5,600 per minute. For a Tampa business hit by a hurricane without DR planning, the combination of data loss, downtime, and recovery costs averages $50,000-$200,000. Many businesses without DR plans never reopen after a major disaster. DR planning typically costs a fraction of what a single incident would cost.
