Using cloud services for backups
In recent years, there have been several cloud service offerings that provide storage space
on the cloud to back up an organization's critical data. This eliminates the need for organiz-
ations to set up a different physical site to back up their data. Services such as Amazon's
AWS provides storage as a service that can be accessed over the Internet. They provide
several disaster recovery architectures that make it easy to set up a backup site on the
cloud. More information on Amazon's offering can be found at
