ISP Recovers in 72 Hours After Leveling by Tornado

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the now-that-is-what-i-call-disaster-recovery dept.

aldheorte writes "Amazing story of how an ISP in Jackson, TN, whose main facility was completely leveled by a tornado, recovered in 72 hours. The story is a great recounting of how they executed their disaster recovery plan, what they found they had left out of that plan, data recovery from destroyed hard drives, and perhaps the best argument ever for offsite backups.
