CLOSING THE DISASTER RECOVERY GAP: ENABLING RESILIENT OPERATIONS ACROSS THE MEA REGION
Orange Business is seeing a growing number of enterprises across MEA reassess their resilience and disaster recovery strategies as geopolitical uncertainties and infrastructure dependencies put business continuity under pressure during prolonged disruptions.
Traditional resilience strategies focus on recovery after an incident. But during a systemic crisis, businesses also need an architecture that keeps critical operations running while conditions remain unstable. CIOs are seeking a more dynamic and agile approach to adapt to changing conditions, mapping technology dependencies and planning for operational continuity in periods of instability.
This iterative resilience includes strengthening backup and recovery architectures, adopting multi-site and cloud-based redundancy, automating failover processes and continuously stress-testing recovery readiness to maintain services under adverse conditions.
“Recent escalations have made enterprises realize they need to be more proactive and flexible when it comes to resilience, but this is not easy with the complexity and distributed nature of modern interconnected infrastructures,” explains Sahem Azzam, President of IMEA and Inner Asia at Orange Business. “As a trusted partner with a local and international footprint, we are uniquely placed to help CIOs right-size their resilience strategy and do what is necessary in terms of disaster recovery based on current risks to ensure they can continue operations during periods of turbulence”.
CIOs steering through an increasingly volatile digital landscape must treat business continuity management as a continuously evolving capability rather than a one-time plan.
Building resilient, future-ready operations
By leveraging the scalability and geographic diversity of cloud infrastructure, enterprises can ensure that data remains accessible – even in the event of catastrophic failure.
Orange Business helps organizations address this through hybrid cloud resilience with secure replication in its sovereign offer, Cloud Avenue, and provides co-location support in secure data center environments. Data can be segmented and mirrored based on business requirements.
A regularly tested resilience plan should be reinforced with real-time monitoring automation and embedded cybersecurity controls to enable rapid detection, response and recovery – ensuring uninterrupted operations in the most volatile situations. Orange Business works closely with Orange Cyberdefense, which is skilled at strengthening resilience through continuous security oversight and threat expertise.
Platformization: a unified and trusted digital foundation
In addition, platformization remodels disaster recovery from static backup plans into a dynamic, automated resilience solution. Where security, compliance and recovery are built into the same operational fabric.
Building on its platformization announcement in the region last year, Orange Business is also highlighting its modular approach to cloud, connectivity and cybersecurity to support continuous operations as part of a business continuity management strategy.
Evolution Platform’s modular and composable architecture allows customers to select and link together network and security functions as required, for example. It includes backup integration and dynamic SD-WAN failover to re-route critical traffic.
Across the MEA region, the conversation has shifted. The real challenge is no longer whether to accelerate digital transformation, but how to build trusted cloud and platform foundations that give organizations the confidence to innovate while maintaining secure, continuous operations in an unstable environment.
