Business Continuity Planning for IST Managed Systems
Summary: Subscribing to IST services for hosting your applications or for centrally funded systems does not necessarily guarantee that a full continuity plan or remote site is included. Recovery services can be provided for most; and many do subscribe, but it costs extra which means that customers sometimes choose to add that additional protection and other times they elect not to.
