Business continuity and disaster recovery planning is more critical now than ever before. Disasters and outages cost organizations time, money and reputation.  And customers are now demanding 24/7 availability for nearly all technical services. The competitive landscape requires comprehensive assessment, planning and execution, encompassing three critical paradigms: protecting data, maintaining availability and safeguarding applications.
 
The Azure cloud platform provides comprehensive capability to help you achieve these paradigms. In this session, we will talk through business continuity concepts and principles, business challenges and the solutions Microsoft provides. Following, we will dive deep into each of the three functional areas and demonstrate Azure’s capabilities in real world scenarios. Attendees will leave with an understanding of how they can immediately implement these services in their environments and how to begin their business continuity journey.
