Customer Reviews

Great Book!

My orginal DR guide was lost in a basement flood, I was looking for a replacement for my desk libary at work. There was some math (statistics)on availablity / reliablity that was a little hard to follow - my college math is quite rusty, but it was nicly summerized in a graph format, so I could follow it. The network and data center sections are very well done.

Conceptually very good, Methodology too

This is my first book about this matter. Although I have some experience implementing solution with HA/DR requirements, this book was very clarifier. Topics are conceptually clear and also this proposes a good methodology to face HA/DR requirements. You will get some technical details about components that allow implement HA/DR, however it is not in deep. Don't think you will get a comercial product review. This is not the target. It is a very good book.
