Disaster Recovery Planning (DRP) emerged in the 1970s, during the era of electronic data processing when mainframe systems were used to crunch data and provide reports for business analysis. The importance of DRP is undeniable especially after the 911 terrorism attack and many natural disasters experienced by many countries; much effort has then poured in to maintain a set of workable DRP. However, though high investment is allocated for information technology and DRP, there are still IT service outages interrupted the business, crippled the operations and impacted the overall organization long term strategic plan. Questions arose on why DRP could not ensure an uninterrupted IT service environment. This paper aims to study the critical dimensions impacting the development and maintenance of DRP process, specifically to understand the dimensions that contribute to a successful DRP that aims to minimize the impacts of IT service outages. This study used a theoretical model, technology-organization-environment framework (TOE) to explore the adoption of DRP process in financial institutions in Malaysia. Following IT service management concept, individual components that comprise of trading partner readiness, staff competency, roles and responsibilities were included in the study. This study evidenced that 8 dimensions were critical for the implementation of DRP, in which 2 of 3 individual components being studied were part of the lists. These 8 dimensions could be used as guidance for future successful DRP rollout and its ongoing maintenance activities; with the ultimate objective to minimize outage duration of IT services that support critical business.

“…In particular, the application task and offloading process consist of other aspects, in terms of performance and quality. In case where the resources on data centers or location-oriented cloud racks are not enough to serve a certain resource sharing procedure resulting in failures, there are schemes that aim to face the associated resource failures in the context of data centers and are well addressed in recent literature [17,18]. However, these schemes do not consider the cloud-to-cloud (in the context of data center to data center) and the cloud-to-device resource migration, which plays an important role in the resource manipulation and offloading procedure, in case where cloud resources and cloud service requirements are not met.…”

This chapter presents a dynamic cloud computing scheme for efficient resource migration and 3D media content processing in mobile computing environments. It elaborates on location and capacity issues to offload resources from mobile devices due to their processing limitations, towards efficiently manipulating 3D video content. The proposed scheme adopts a rack-based approach that enables cooperative migration for redundant resources to be offloaded towards facilitating 3D media content manipulation. The rack-based approach significantly reduces crash failures that lead all servers to become unavailable within a rack and enables mobile devices with limited processing capabilities to reproduce multimedia services at an acceptable level of quality of experience (QoE). The presented scheme is thoroughly evaluated through simulation tests, where the resource migration policy was used in the context of cloud rack failures for delay-bounded resource availability of mobile users. IntroductionUtility computing [1] offers synchronous and asynchronous availability of services, in the context of cloud computing paradigm. The services offered through utilitybased cloud computing platforms, mainly emerged from the appearance of public
