Disaster Recovery
Wed Sep 10, 2003 - Wed Sep 10, 2003

Disaster recovery planning has become an important business challenge for many companies, even before last months blackout brought the issue back into the headlines. Mary Kay Corporation has asked for feedback from other member companies on high availability options for data center disaster recovery. This conference call addressed Mary Kays issues and provided an opportunity for other companies facing similar challenges to compare experiences and share best practices.

Topics for discussion included:

Defining what the business needs (i.e. cost/benefit justifications)
Options for full or partial data center mirroring (e.g., data only, only some applications)
Advantages and risks of parallel active sites versus passive mirroring
Consulting firms for planning and implementation
