Looking at my laptop at this moment, I see one very complex set of hardware and software interfacing with an almost unimaginably complex array of hardware and software though a very simple plug. I can remove that plug, move the laptop, and plug it back in somewhere else and the integration will be (nearly) instantly restored. With the addition of a cloud drive, I can remove the laptop, plug in one I’ve never touched before, and be full productive in as little as 10 minutes.
The only reason most web site DR plans don’t resemble the above scenarios is because no one has taken the time to standardized their interfaces to the level of simplicity of the humble cable. And the cable works that simply only because a number of people decided it must be.
Think about it.
