Over the last few years, the media and entertainment vertical has witnessed huge amounts of big data generation and rising adoption of digitization. For instance, in the case of 3D videos, in particular, the required storage and backup can be huge, along with the need for data protection. Moreover, digital media plays a key role in sports for recording and creating a catalog for every play, which can again lead to time-consuming backup. Moreover, as digital media may require older data in the future, traditional backup is not feasible for maintaining longer periods of backup, as they may become corrupted or lost. These factors are leading to increasing demand for DR services owing to their benefits of unlimited storage, speed backup, data availability, and improved data protection. The global DRaaS market for the media and entertainment industry is witnessing growth across all regions due to the increase in adoption of digital channels that allows customers to keep moving across various channels, such as mobile, TV, and tablet. This provides media and entertainment companies an opportunity to track customers and ensure recovery of vital data on the secondary site. The media and entertainment industry delivers content on the web, resulting in huge traffic of customers and partners. Such content depends completely upon the performance of the infrastructure on which it is being run. DRaaS frees up IT resources and enables enterprises to focus on developing and marketing new products and services. DR services enable the media and entertainment industry to store all crucial data and access the same at any point of time in the future. Given the huge quantity of data being generated in the media and entertainment industry on a daily basis, there is a need for DRaaS to keep the data safe and secure.
