Disasters are an inevitable certainty for any organization -- but while inevitable, disasters are also generally unpredictable. The best strategy then in the face of inevitable but uncertain negative events is to have a holistic plan that sets out the process by which an organization can return to normal operations after a disaster.

This paper will define some core concepts around disaster recovery, contrast it with the related but distinct field of High Availability, and give some key guidelines as to how an organization can plan, react and recover from a disaster.
