Backup vs Archive vs Disaster Recovery (What Businesses Should Know)
Have you ever been locked out of an important folder or realized a colleague accidentally deleted a key client file? Maybe you’ve faced a hardware crash or a sudden power outage. These glitches are part of daily work life. While each situation involves your business data, they aren’t all the same and they shouldn’t be handled the same way. One morning you might just need to grab a file you edited an hour ago. Another day, you might need a record from five years back. And in a worst case scenario, you might need to get your entire business back on its feet after a major disaster. This is why mixing up backup, archive and disaster recovery is risky.
