Next week, as the record numbers of iPads purchased this holiday season are finally unwrapped, millions will be pondering the countless ways to use their shiny new devices. They may pause to think about the iPad’s workplace advantages, but IT managers have already been thinking about (and fretting over) the huge flood of personal devices logging onto corporate networks and accessing sensitive company data on January 2nd. The prospect of a “BYOD IT Cliff” has never been greater.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/post-holiday-byod-party-could-cause-it-cliff-so-be-ready/)

In 2012, our partner community grew significantly – from January to October alone, we added 735 new partners, and, from the first half to the second half of the year, we saw a 40 percent increase in partner deal registrations!](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/2012-another-great-year-acronis-channel/)

The hashtag #GartnerDC was created to allow attendees to share their thoughts, engage in conversations and discuss industry trends – and let those of us not as fortunate to be in attendance follow along. Some of the trending topics stemming from this week’s show included issues surrounding Big Data, data storage and, of course, the cloud.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/emerging-it-trends-weeks-gartner-data-center-conference-las-vegas/)

Economic conditions have caused organizations to do more with less. They are tasked with protecting a growing amount of mission-critical data, often with a shrinking budget.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/make-most-your-it-budget-q4/)

It involves a great deal of planning and results in a high degree of satisfaction once the environment is complete, the budget is justified and the equipment is procured and configured. Overall it is a gratifying experience– until it’s time to test the solution.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/failed-testing-another-hidden-hazard-diy-dr/)

One of these hazards is hardware/software drift. Since your disaster recovery site represents a working replica of the production environment, it will need to be maintained on an ongoing basis. There are several strategies for how hardware and software are provisioned for your DR site. The strategies you choose will determine the how much maintenance will be needed to keep your DR site running at an optimal level.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/how-avoid-hardware-software-drift/)

One of the biggest mistakes that you can make is to choose a colocation site that is too close to your production site. It’s way too easy for a power grid failure to knock out both your primary and your colocation site if both sites are located in the same metropolitan area. (It happens!) But the challenge of in-house DR is that the technical team responsible for bringing your DR site online will need access to that site. This means that the approach and technology used to deliver a disaster recovery solution must be capable of remote activation.

But creating an effective disaster recovery solution is a complex project and there are several unplanned costs and other hidden hazards associated with it. I’ll identify some of these hidden hazards over the next few weeks.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/hidden-hazards-san-san-replication/)
