Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery technologies include hardware, software and services aimed at preventing losses of crucial, potentially sensitive business data, whether from intermittant power outages or full-fledged natural disasters. The evolution of product and service delivery into Cloud Computing and virtualization will serve to boost the sector's growth, since little or no hardware provisioning would be required on the client's site. While the global economic downturn has hurt the sector, ABI Research anticipates growth will pick up again in 2010 and beyond.

This report covers the market for business continuity and disaster recovery solutions in the period 2004-2015, segmented by major global region, by category (hardware, software and services) and by size of business (SBM/SOHO vs. Enterprise).
