Disaster Recovery Service Provider
Every minute of downtime costs money — $5,600 per minute on average according to Gartner. Yet most organisations have untested recovery plans, manual failover procedures, and backup strategies that have never been validated under realistic conditions. Opsio designs, implements, and tests disaster recovery solutions that actually work when disaster strikes.

Protect Your Business With Proven Recovery Capability
Most disaster recovery plans are theoretical — written once, filed away, and never tested under realistic conditions. When disaster actually strikes — a ransomware attack encrypting production databases, a cloud region outage taking down customer-facing services, or a catastrophic hardware failure destroying on-premises infrastructure — organisations discover that their backup strategy has gaps, their failover procedures are outdated, and their recovery takes days instead of hours. The result is extended downtime, data loss, customer impact, and in regulated industries, compliance violations. Opsio's disaster recovery services replace hope with certainty. We design DR architectures using AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery, Azure Site Recovery, Zerto, or Veeam that provide continuous replication with defined recovery time objectives (RTO) and recovery point objectives (RPO). For critical workloads, we implement active-active architectures with sub-minute RPO and near-zero RTO. For cost-sensitive workloads, we design pilot-light or warm-standby configurations that balance recovery speed with infrastructure cost.
Testing is where our approach differs fundamentally. We conduct quarterly DR tests — not tabletop discussions but actual failover exercises that validate recovery of every protected workload. Each test is documented with timing metrics, issues discovered, and improvements implemented. When you need to demonstrate DR capability to auditors, insurance underwriters, or board members, you have concrete evidence that your recovery plan works — not just a document that claims it will.
What We Deliver
DR Architecture Design
Design of disaster recovery architectures tailored to your RTO/RPO requirements and budget. Active-active for mission-critical systems, warm standby for important workloads, and pilot-light for cost-optimized recovery. Multi-region and multi-cloud DR strategies for maximum resilience.
Automated Replication & Failover
Implementation of continuous data replication using AWS DRS, Azure Site Recovery, Zerto, or Veeam with automated failover orchestration. Recovery plans that execute with a single click — sequencing server startups, updating DNS, and validating application health automatically.
Ransomware Recovery
Immutable backup strategies with air-gapped copies that cannot be encrypted by ransomware. Recovery procedures specifically designed for ransomware scenarios including clean-room recovery, integrity validation, and forensic-safe evidence preservation before restoration.
DR Testing & Validation
Quarterly failover tests that exercise complete recovery of all protected workloads. Non-disruptive testing in isolated environments that validates recovery without impacting production. Documented results with timing metrics and improvement tracking.
Business Continuity Planning
Business impact analysis identifying critical systems and acceptable downtime thresholds. Business continuity plans covering IT recovery, communication procedures, alternative work arrangements, and regulatory notification requirements.

Disaster Recovery Service Provider FAQ
What is disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS)?
DRaaS is a managed service that provides continuous data replication, automated failover, and recovery orchestration for your critical systems. Opsio implements and operates DR infrastructure using AWS DRS, Azure Site Recovery, Zerto, or Veeam — including ongoing monitoring, quarterly testing, and 24/7 support for actual disaster events. You get enterprise-grade DR capability without managing the infrastructure yourself.
What RTO and RPO can Opsio achieve?
Recovery capabilities depend on architecture: active-active configurations achieve near-zero RTO and sub-minute RPO. Warm standby achieves 15-30 minute RTO with 1-5 minute RPO. Pilot-light configurations achieve 1-4 hour RTO with 15-60 minute RPO. Opsio designs tiered DR strategies that match recovery speed to business criticality and budget — not every system needs the most expensive option.
How often should disaster recovery be tested?
Opsio recommends and conducts quarterly DR tests for all protected workloads. Critical systems may warrant monthly testing. Each test validates complete recovery including application functionality, data integrity, and network connectivity. Test results are documented with timing metrics and any issues are remediated before the next test cycle.
Can DR protect against ransomware?
Yes — with the right architecture. Standard backups connected to the same network can be encrypted by ransomware. Opsio implements immutable backup vaults (AWS Backup Vault Lock, Azure immutable blob storage), air-gapped copies, and recovery procedures specifically designed for ransomware scenarios including clean-room restoration and integrity validation before reconnecting to the network.
How much does disaster recovery cost?
DR costs depend on data volume, RTO/RPO requirements, and architecture tier. A pilot-light DR setup for a typical 10-20 server environment costs $2,000-$5,000/month. Warm standby runs $5,000-$15,000/month. Active-active for mission-critical workloads costs $15,000-$50,000/month. Opsio includes DR testing, monitoring, and 24/7 support in the managed service fee.
