Move workloads with clarity, not guesswork. Define recovery time and recovery point objectives. Refine runbooks from test results.
Outdated designs, unclear dependencies and scattered support responsibilities make technology projects harder than they need to be. For Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS), the work follows a tailored sequence. Define recovery time and recovery point objectives. Design replication, standby capacity and failover roles. Exercise recovery sequences and data consistency checks. The work is scoped around existing systems, security expectations, change windows and a clear acceptance process.
Who This Service Is For
Organisations evaluating cloud adoption, workload migration, hybrid hosting or cloud cost optimisation. The initial focus is clear: Define recovery time and recovery point objectives. The intended close-out is: Refine runbooks from test results.
Challenges We Help Address
- Unclear starting point: Important details may be missed unless the current state and decision requirements are established.
- Execution risk: Planning must address real dependencies: Design replication, standby capacity and failover roles.
- Uncertain handover: The expected result should be documented and accepted, rather than assumed complete.
What Is Included
- Initial review: Define recovery time and recovery point objectives.
- Solution or action planning: Design replication, standby capacity and failover roles.
- Coordinated execution: Exercise recovery sequences and data consistency checks.
- Completion and next steps: Refine runbooks from test results.
Our Approach
- 01Discover the environment. Define recovery time and recovery point objectives.
- 02Design the solution. Design replication, standby capacity and failover roles.
- 03Deliver in controlled stages. Exercise recovery sequences and data consistency checks.
- 04Validate and hand over. Refine runbooks from test results.
Deliverables & Quality Checks
Intended completion activity: Refine runbooks from test results. Supporting records may include approved configurations, testing evidence, architectural or operational records and a support handover, as applicable. The proposal should define acceptance conditions and any work specifically excluded.
Engagement & Dependencies
Available formats may include an assessment, fixed-scope implementation or, where confirmed, a recurring support arrangement. Access permissions, third-party licensing, change windows, ownership and support coverage must be agreed before work begins.

Frequently asked questions
Helpful details about scope, preparation and delivery.
What does Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) include?
The proposed engagement has three key activities. Define recovery time and recovery point objectives. Design replication, standby capacity and failover roles. Exercise recovery sequences and data consistency checks. The exact deliverables are confirmed before engagement.
What should we prepare for Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS)?
To begin, share current assets or applications, access to relevant owners, existing diagrams or records, business-critical dependencies and preferred change windows. The first step is: Define recovery time and recovery point objectives.
How is Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) reviewed or completed?
The intended completion activity is: Refine runbooks from test results. Handover or filing evidence and any open actions are documented to the extent included in the agreed scope.
Will Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) interrupt existing operations?
Impact depends on dependencies and the chosen change window. Planning includes: Design replication, standby capacity and failover roles. Validation includes: Refine runbooks from test results. Downtime and rollback requirements must be agreed in advance.
