Disaster recovery in single-cloud and multi-cloud environments: Issues and challenges

Information Technology (IT) data services provided by cloud providers (CPs) face significant challenges in maintaining services and their continuity during a disaster. The primary concern for data recovery (DR) in the cloud is finding ways to ensure that the process of data backup and recovery is e...
