Client/Server Architecture and Implementation
Published in Steven F. Blanding, Enterprise Operations Management, 2020
Although management tools are emerging for the client/server environment, they are still few and far between. Therefore, it is important to have knowledgeable staff who understand the nut-and-bolts of the operating system, the interrelationships of the applications, and the networking environment. The reason for this is disaster recovery. Many companies do not fully appreciate or understand how they are going to manage distributed data on multiple servers that may be scattered all over the country. When disaster strikes, it is important to have a recovery plan already in place so that vital data does not get lost. An effective disaster recovery plan will not only be thoroughly scripted to correspond with various disaster scenarios, but be tested periodically and refined, if necessary.

A disaster recovery plan (DRP) is a formal written document [45], a plan [46], or a set of tools and procedures [47] created by an organization and contains detailed instructions describing the steps that the organization will use to respond to unplanned incidents or disasters and restore operations after major disruption to its information technology assets. The primary aim of a DRP is to get over or minimize the effects of a disaster and restore normal operations quickly. The major components of a disaster recovery plan are the emergency plan, backup plan, recovery plan, and test plan.

A disaster recovery plan (DRP) is an essential business document that describes how an organization can quickly resume work after an unplanned incident. The disaster recovery plan is an essential part of a business continuity plan, designed to assist the company in the recovery of system functionality and prevention of data loss to ensure a smooth resumption of operations in the aftermath of an incident. The primary objective is to balance the cost of downtime along with the cost of continuity of business for the critical systems. For business enterprises, disaster recovery is a top priority [4].

Another important application of data replication is disaster recovery, which refers to programs designed to get a business back up and running after an unexpected interruption of services. A disaster recovery plan designs the response to a disruptive event, to restore crucial business functions. The recovery process includes the restoration or relocation of sources like servers and storage systems, reestablishment of system’s functionality, data recovery and synchronisation, and finally, restoration of business functions [14].
