It's a typical Monday in Financial Fiction. Employees are focused on their daily tasks, the IT team monitors the systems, and customers access their online accounts seamlessly. Business is going smoothly, as always, until…disaster strikes.

At 9:47 am, an unexpected lightning strike hits a nearby electrical substation, causing a massive blackout throughout the city. What seems like a simple power outage soon turns into a nightmare: local servers of Financial Fiction, where all critical business information is stored, are turned off instantly. Without immediate support and with local infrastructure out of service, the company is paralyzed. Transaction systems are down, employees can't access data, and customers are starting to report problems.

In the boardroom, the managers aredesperate. They know that every minute of downtime represents significant financial losses and, worse yet, an erosion of their customers' trust.How could this happen?They wonder. The answer is simple, but painful:they do not have a Disaster Recovery Plan (DRP).

With panic rising, the IT team desperately tries to restore the systems, but with each step they encounter a new obstacle. Local backups are also inaccessible due to the blackout, and the only hope is to wait for the power to return. But the hours pass, and the uncertainty grows. Meanwhile, social media is beginning to fill with complaints from dissatisfied customers. The local press takes note and, from one moment to the next, the situation of Financial Fiction It becomes news. The reputational damage is enormous, and what is worse, the financial damage is beginning to be irreversible.

But what would have happened if Financial Fiction would you have had a DRP in the cloud?

With a DRP in the cloud, the story of Financial Fiction It would have been very different. Instead of being at the mercy of on-premises infrastructure, the company could have relied on the cloud's ability to keep its critical operations running, no matter what was happening on the physical level. The instant lightning struck and on-premises servers went down, the IT team could have activated DRP, automatically migrating operations to a secure, remote cloud environment.

Customers would have noticed minimal disruption, if any at all. Employees would have continued working without problems, accessing data from anywhere with an internet connection. Managers, instead of running around, would have followed the DRP protocol, ensuring that the entire business continued running as if nothing had happened. Cloud DRP would have acted as aprotective umbrellaabout the company, keeping its reputation intact and ensuring business continuity.
