Until recently, disaster planning for businesses focused on recovering centralized datacenters following a catastrophe, either natural or man-made. While these measures remain important to disaster planning, the protection they provide is far from adequate for today's distributed computing environments. The goal for companies today is to achieve a state of business continuity, where critical systems, applications and networks are always available.
