Best Practice Strategies to implement a cloud based disaster recovery plan

In the face of an increasing number of disasters, local councils are realising the crucial need for infrastructure resiliency, including IT systems.

Both natural and man-made disasters can result in large numbers of human fatalities and significant financial damage. In fact, natural disasters are estimated to cost an average of $1.14 billion annually in Australia.

Prevention of calamities and containment of damages are key challenges facing Australian local councils— and these agencies are incurring large planned and unplanned expenditures to address them.

It is time to plan ahead at this year’s 2^nd Annual Cloud Services in Local Government conference, taking place on 26-28 July in Sydney. The event aims to assist you in driving economic vitality for your regions by reducing IT costs, improve citizen services and business model transformations.

The best part of my job as a Conference Production Manager is to create and manage my own conferences from concept to delivery, identify future conference topics as well as giving me a chance to expand my business card collection.
