Organizations are demanding higher levels of system and network availability, and cost-effective business continuity. However, all this must be managed and maintained by a single department with one IT budget.

The results are delivered as the Ovum Decision Matrix (ODM), which considers the significance of all three aspects of a backup and recovery strategy and how these influence how technology is deployed, used, and controlled.
