Business Continuity

Encapsulates the idea that workers have uninterrupted access to the data and applications their productivity depends upon. The same virtualized infrastructure that enables workplace flexibility or WorkSurfing also provides a highly effective foundation for maintaining business continuity through disruptions of all kinds planned and unplanned:

  • Routine system maintenance
  • Power failures
  • Critical system outages
  • Seasonal illnesses
  • More serious situations such as natural disasters (flash floods, fires, tornadoes, blizzards, earthquakes, etc.)

Given the potential a disruption has to substantially impact a company's bottom line, due to diminished productivity, lost revenue, missed opportunities, failure to meet service level agreements and customer defections… It's no wonder that business continuity is the number one reason to virtualize your apps and desktops.

Business Continuity planning has most recently focused on failover and disaster recovery for the datacenter. However, this is only part of the solution. Employees need access to:

  • Files
  • Applications
  • Data
  • Communication and collaboration tools
