Azure Backup, Availability Zones & Disaster Recovery: What You Actually Need
An outage can interrupt operations in minutes. How confident are you that your organization could recover quickly from a ransomware attack, critical infrastructure failure or unexpected disruption?
Join Long View’s Azure experts for a practical discussion on protecting your data, keeping essential services available and building a recovery strategy that meets your business needs.
Date: Tuesday, November 3rd 2026
Time: 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM ET
Location: Virtual Microsoft Teams
We’ll explore how backup, high availability and disaster recovery in Azure work together, where each plays a role, and how to make informed decisions about cost, complexity and protection.
What You’ll Learn
- Protect critical business data: Explore Azure Backup best practices and common gaps to address.
- Plan for recovery: Understand the role of Azure Site Recovery (ASR) in your disaster recovery strategy.
- Set realistic recovery targets: Define how quickly services must be restored and how much data loss your business can tolerate.
- Build an actionable continuity plan: Align your recovery approach with business priorities and critical workloads.
- Test your readiness: Validate recovery plans before an incident exposes their weaknesses.
- Avoid common mistakes: Identify planning and implementation decisions that can undermine recovery.
Do You Really Need a Second Azure Region?
We’ll discuss how Availability Zones, Zone Redundant Storage (ZRS) and zone-aware Azure services can support availability within a region, and when protection against a wider regional outage calls for geographic redundancy.
Join us on November 3 to better understand your options and take practical steps toward a more resilient Azure environment.
