Disaster Recovery

Stateless Computing for Enterprise Clouds

Keywords: stateless, workload mobility, Disaster recovery.
Authors: Anthony Skipper and Dave Roberts, ServiceMesh.
Abstract: One of the primary benefits of cloud computing is workload mobility, the ability to move workloads from cloud to cloud to achieve best pricing, disaster recovery, and meet the needs of changing application requirements. Unfortunately, workload mobility can be hampered by the needless coupling of infrastructure and application state. In this session, we'll cover the need for stateless computing, the major stateful components of enterprise systems, and techniques that enterprises are using to remove and isolate application state from workloads to achieve significant benefits in workload mobility.

Achieving business continuity goals with a cloud-based DR plan

Session Date and Time: Day 3, March 25, 9.45am EST (6.45am West Coast) (45min)
Keywords: Disaster Recovery, Continuity Cloud, Data Replication, Standby Resources, Transatlantic Replication
Authors: Mark Ball, iLand.
Abstract: Ensuring the continuity of your business means being prepared for the unpredictable with nimble infrastructure that’s resistant to catastrophe and able to recover quickly when disaster strikes. A cloud-based disaster recovery (DR) plan can provide cost-effective business continuity options to enterprises of all sizes. In this presentation, iland will present case studies that show real examples of the cloud computing solutions described. We can also provide demonstrations of key solutions including software-based and SAN-to-SAN data replication, standby resources, and transatlantic replication.

Cloud Computing: Who's watching your back?

Keywords: security, business continuity, disaster recovery
Authors: Ron LaPedis, Seacliff Partners International, LLC.
Abstract: Cloud computing is all the rage, with Amazon’s Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) and Simple Storage Service (S3), Agathon Group, ElasticHosts, and dozens of other providers available to you. Amazon S3 was down for nearly 8 hours on July 20, 2008, Gmail has suffered multiple outages of up to 2 1/2 hours affecting more than 113 million users, Ma.gnolia bookmarking service suffered a database failure, and Carbonite lost data belonging to 7,500 customers. Most recently, thousands of T-Mobile Sidekick users lost access to their cloud-based data for several weeks.

Would an outage of any length affect your company?

Do you have a business continuity plan should your hosted applications or data go offline, become corrupted, or destroyed?

And who really owns your data in the cloud and who is responsible for protecting it from theft or alteration?
