IT Business Continuity with Disaster Recovery Focus

Our Goal:We are slowly moving to cloud based servers, however we do not have a detailed disaster recovery plan created.Our goal is to have the students review and evaluate our current business continuity procedures (at the moment we have a few procedures in place however nothing concrete) then provide recommendations on updating plan. We want to develop a detailed, written business continuity plan following industry standards.What we expect the students to work on:Evaluate our current business continuity proceduresProvide advice based on industry standards for creating a planOur network is mostly virtualized (VMWare is the platform used)Currently using VMWare back up software.Create a failover system (ie create a plan to start up remotely or in the cloud should something occur in order to be able to provide IT services 24/7)Experience in networks and storage is preferredExpected DeliverableA written review and report of current and recommended disaster recovery plan based on industry standards.
