Why Cloud-Based Disaster Recovery Becoming A Necessity In Nigeria?

The increase in reliance on digital infrastructures has created a growing digital economy, which in turn has generated a great demand for companies to have access to their data. The creation of Cloud-Based Disaster Recovery allows for the establishment of Recovery Environments that are not dependent upon physical hardware, such as Data Servers, which are susceptible to Environmental and Operational Disruptions. Companies can restore their operations quickly without being dependent on their physical Data Servers for all aspects of their Business Recovery Operations.

 

1.     Rising frequency of IT disruptions and downtime

2.     Growing threat of cybersecurity attacks

3.     Cost effectiveness for all sizes of enterprises

 

Rising frequency of IT disruptions and downtime

 

The increase in downtime caused by the growing frequency of IT failures in Nigeria is a result of both the growing frequency of Power Interruptions in Nigeria, as well as the poor quality of the Digital Infrastructure throughout Nigeria. In addition, many companies currently have a Disaster Recovery as a Service in Nigeria, which will not be effective when there is an extended power cut or physical damage to the Disaster Recovery Data Centre.

 

Growing threat of cybersecurity attacks

 

Cybercrime is on the rise in Nigeria as businesses utilize digital methods for payments, collecting customer information, and performing other day-to-day business functions. Cybercriminals are attacking businesses by using Ransomware, Data Breach, and System takeover, creating tremendous risk to Enterprises that have not established a solid Recovery Plan.

 

Cost effectiveness for all sizes of enterprises

 

Traditional Disaster Recovery requires a large amount of UPFRONT capital in the form of redundant Hardware, Secondary Data Centres, and continued maintenance and support of the entire system. Organizations in Nigeria that are small or medium-sized companies face the challenge of COPIOUS costs associated with this type of Cloud Based Disaster Recovery Nigeria. Organizations can now scale their resources as demand fluctuates, and they will pay for only the amount of Storage and Recovery Services they actually USE.
