'What's UP' - Warning, Host, Alert, Task, Support
Procedures of operation, data backup, voice continuity and restoration processes are crucial components in disaster and damage control. Nevertheless, they are not the only factors that organizations need to consider when defining the necessary strategy in protecting critical situations against various disasters. Events such as severe weather, natural disasters or power failures occur unexpected. In these situations organisations need to take applications, servers, networks, communications, work spaces, and people into account. Effective business continuity needs an insurance that technologies are in place and guaranteeing effective operation continuity.
What’s-up is an automated self discovering damage control system. The regulating process of What's-up analyses the impact of all selected operational functions and assesses any function suffering outages. Based on predefined scenarios What’s-up effectively distributes tasks, alarms and warnings and controls messages to the responsible staff. Metrics are in place to ensure continuity, damage and disaster recovery including time-lines for recovery point objectives (RPOs) and factors defined as recovery time objectives (RTOs).
