The State of Backup and
Disaster Recovery
Data backup solutions used to be straightforward. Depending on internal capacity,
organizations would copy data to physical media such as tapes, external hard drives or
the cloud at varying intervals. Disaster recovery was often reserved for catastrophic
events, and its importance was underestimated until businesses faced real problems.
IT environments have since grown more complex and the data they rely on is more
abundant. Worldwide, the volume of data being created, stored and consumed is
growing exponentially—from two zettabytes in 2010 to an estimated 180 zettabytes
in 2025 (Statista). With this huge increase comes a greater risk of sophisticated
cyberthreats and unpredictable natural disasters. This creates a need for more reliable
backup and DR solutions to futureproof your data.
