In this Q&A, written by John Hilliard from TechTarget, independent disaster recovery (DR) expert Paul Kirvan discusses specific issues organizations should consider before choosing a colocation data center for DR.

considerations, such as who will have access to data and will it be available if a DR situation arises.
