Disaster Recovery & Backup Modernization
RPO/RTO targets, restore drills, and cross-region resilience for critical workloads
The Challenge
Backup tools chosen per team with inconsistent retention and encryption
No regular restore drills; leadership lacked confidence in stated RTOs
Single-region dependencies for databases and object storage
Compliance asking for proof of immutability and access controls
Our Solution
Catalogued tier-1 applications with agreed RPO/RTO and dependency graphs
Standardized backup policies, encryption, and immutability where required
Automated quarterly restore tests with pass/fail reporting to stakeholders
Introduced warm standby patterns for the most critical data paths
Integrated alerting when backup jobs fail or fall out of compliance windows
Measurable Impact
Routine
Quarterly exercises with documented outcomes and remediation items
Higher
Measured restore times replaced slide-deck estimates
Reduced
Fewer unknown single points of failure in data protection
Aligned
Evidence packs mapped retention, access, and testing to control frameworks
"We finally treated recovery like a product feature. Drills were boring in the best way—predictable, measured, and owned."
