System and method for datacenter recovery

Abstract:

An improved approach for disaster recovery is provided, along with corresponding systems, methods, and computer readable media. In the improved approach, a set of applications are assigned one or more application weightings (e.g., based upon asset type, a recovery time objective, a recovery time capability, a criticality to key business functions, vendor hosting, interfaces with other systems), etc. The one or more application weightings are utilized for ranking the applications, and the ranked set of applications is utilized to generate a disaster recovery boot sequence whereby specific recovery tasks and infrastructure device requirements are arranged temporally to achieve one or more recovery time conditions.
