When making disaster recovery plans, don’t forget virtualized and cloud computing environments. That’s the warning from research which found that 44% of enterprise data stored on virtualized systems is rarely backed up, and 60% of virtualized servers aren’t included in corporate disaster recovery plans — up from 45% of servers in 2009.
Those results come from a survey of 1,700 enterprise employees, conducted by Applied Research, for Symantec’s sixth-annual study of corporate disaster recovery trends.
