Cloud Computing Based Disaster Recovery
Abstract
Disaster recovery is a persistent problem in IT platforms. This problem is more crucial in cloud
computing,because Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) have to provide the services to their customers even if the data
center is down, due to a disaster. In the past few years, researchers have shown interest to disaster recovery using cloud
computing, and a considerable amount of literature has been published in this area. However, to the best of our
knowledge, there is a lack of precise survey for detailed analysis of cloud-based disaster recovery. To fill this gap,this
paper provides an extensive survey of disaster recovery concepts and research in the cloud environments.We present
different taxonomy of disaster recovery mechanisms, main challenges and proposed solutions. We also describe the
cloud-based disaster recovery platforms and identify open issues related to disaster recovery
