This is the place to start if you are only somewhat familiar with disaster recovery, information availability, business continuity and IT resiliency.

• Why must I consider my entire computing environment in determining a DR/information availability solution?
• What is the difference between reliability and availability?
• Data or applications? Which is more important to DR?
• What are the most common downtime challenges to information availability?
• Are you at risk from unplanned interruptions/downtime? And why you should be concerned?
