Considering the rising cost of downtime and the competitive “always on” business landscape, it should come as no surprise that companies are re-evaluatting their application and site failover capabilities. IDC’s latest report, Dev Ops and The Cost of Downtime, revealed how costly downtime is:
- For the Fortune 1000, the average total cost of unplanned application downtime per year is $1.25 billion to $2.5 billion.
- The average hourly cost of an infrastructure failure is $100,000 per hour.
- The average cost of a critical application failure per hour is $500,000 to $1 million.
So, what are your IT peers’ current disaster recovery capabilities? And what are they prioritizing for new disaster recovery as a service solutions (DRaaS) for 2015?
A new report from ActualTech Media –sponsored by Infrascale – revealed that most companies are not prepared for application or site failover, are burdened by their legacy DR solution, and believe on-demand failover is out of reach. You can get the full report here.
