    I mean disaster planning is about finding ways to mitigate things like power or internet going down to minimize or eliminate their impact. That said, accepting the risk of downtime because alternatives are too expensive is a perfectly valid decision as long as it’s an intentional one.

      It depends on the industry. Some industries have very critical systems that can’t go down period.

        Yeah, in which case you wouldn’t accept the downtime and would drop the cash on redundant systems.
