Listers - Poll question of the day: How one goes about determining a good "distance" between 2 data centers. One which is primary and one which could be used as a DR site.
Is there any papers, manuals, redbooks that give a good ROT for this topic? And what is your feelings on this issue. Is 4 miles between two data centers too close? is 1000000 miles between two data centers to far? Any thoughts or a pundit's 2cents worth on this? I have been trying to determine this in a generic way. Not based on what we have for connectivity. But what would be a good business case to show upper management that if we had XX miles between our data centers, then a regional issue would not take out our business. But if we were only 4 miles apart, we would be in a world of hurt.
