BCP and the Small Business: Computing Infrastructure
posted by Chip Witt

BCP, or Business Continuity Planning for long, is the art practiced to insure that when disaster strikes, your business doesn't crumble. It can, and should include such things as site evacuation plans, key communication information, details on business processes you or others may have to follow from scratch should the worst happen, any dependencies for the smooth operation of those business processes, recovery timeframe requirements, and, of course, information on key computing technology configurations to make recovery of required services possible...if not easy. While all of these things are important aspects of BCP, and deserve your focus and attention when putting together a comprehensive plan, I would like to spend some time talking specifically about business continuity and distaster recovery for your computing infrastructure, and what you absolutely MUST have squirreled away somewhere safe to reduce headaches and downtime when tornados land, the ground quakes, or hard drives fail.
