Backups, Recovery, and Continuity: Understanding BaaS, RaaS, and DRaaS
Description
Not all data recovery services are created equal. In this episode, we break down the core differences between Backup as a Service (BaaS), Recovery as a Service (RaaS), and Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS)—three acronyms often confused but with radically different capabilities, costs, and outcomes.
We use relatable analogies and real-world examples to highlight what each service offers:
- Why BaaS is like data insurance for when files go missing
- How RaaS provides a “virtual standby system” for faster recovery
- And why DRaaS is the “white glove” option for mission-critical operations that can’t afford downtime
You’ll hear how recovery needs shift depending on your business—whether you're a small company with minimal IT resources, an e-commerce brand with a lot riding on uptime, or a financial institution that demands real-time replication and zero data loss.
By the end, you'll have a clear framework for choosing the right recovery service based on your budget, RTO/RPO goals, risk tolerance, and infrastructure complexity.
🛡️ Because in today’s threat landscape, data recovery isn’t a luxury—it’s essential.
