Even if the big D never hits you, there are still plenty of things that frequently go wrong that will noticeably hurt your productivity unless you have a data center disaster recovery plan.
3. File integrity. There are so many ways a file can become corrupted these days. There are viruses and worms and myriad hacker tricks, disgruntled employees, as well as just plain old software malfunctions. If one of those corrupted files is a super important document, like, say, the master copy of your company's primary product, then you will have a lot of recontructing to do. There could be sensitive information needed to triumph in a lawsuit. The corrupted file could be part of a program that you need and then the program could quit running altogether or just barely run at a crawl. Any of these could put a serious dent in your bottom line if the corrupted file can not be fixed quickly. But if you have a computer backup system, these problems can be fixed on the fly by restoring the corrupted files from the originals in your backup system and you're back up business in no time at all.
4. Productivity. If files that are part of a critical program or process are damaged or deleted somehow, the ability of your company to carry out it's normal functions could be seriously hampered. But computer backup systems can get productivity right back up to normal by restoring the damaged or deleted files so you get a momentary lag in productivity, as opposed to a major delay or stoppage. It's useful to remember that data center disaster recovery plans aren't just for calamities. They are also very useful in taking care of less serious problems immediately so they don't cause major delays or shutdowns in productivity.

Why Should I Even Think about Having a Data Center Disaster Recovery Plan?
What are some reasons why a business owner should think seriously about putting a data center disaster recovery plan in place? Here are a couple:
1. Reassuring to customers and employees. Customers like to deal with a company that takes their transactions and other records seriously enough to make sure they can always access them. Employees, too, will feel proud and more confident about their company, knowing that there is protection against disaster. They will be more confident knowing their company is planning ahead and is ready for the unexpected, increasing the likelihood it will be able to deal successfully with whatever may come its way. This level of reassurance helps keep employees and current clients loyal and is also a valid point to raise with potential clients who would prefer to deal with a reliable company that is prepared for worst case contingencies.
2. Accurate tracking of files and folders. One of the integral parts in any data center disaster recovery plan are computer backup systems. In order for these to be set up, the data's file structure must be accurately documented and this, in itself, can be a big boon to the business. The good systems can sort and organize data quickly and easily, which could be enormously helpful in case of need to find or restore files or programs that have been lost or deleted by accident.

No Data Center Disaster Recovery Plan. What, Me Worry?
When you're just starting off a new business a data center disaster recovery plan just doesn't seem all that necessary, not even a priority. You watch every nickel until the bottom line starts to go black. Then your every thought is how to grow that number and then begin to take some of it for yourself. It probably never enters the new business owner's mind that everything she has worked on could be wiped out in a moment. You may have insurance on your buildings and equipment and material things, but what about all your records and other data?
Perhaps you think that nothing will hit your computers. You are somehow immune to all the viruses and trojans and hackers who dedicate their lives to bringing down data systems, as well as software and mechanical failure. Perhaps horrific thunderstorms, floods, hurricanes, tornados, blizzards, earthquakes and other natural disasters that affect electronic things will never happen where you are. Perhaps you think you don't have any worthwhile electronic data to be lost. If you look honestly, it's not very likely any of these will be true. The fact is, having a well-designed data center disaster recovery plan always makes good sense.
