The DBSi Advantage

The Real Cost
of Downtime
Failure of business critical services can cause a devastating loss of money. According to a 2001 Merrill Lynch/McKinsey report, each hour a business spends “down” can cost from $14,000 to $6.5 million, depending on the industry dollar amounts that are downright conservative by 2007 standards.
Once inflation and the increased prevalence of the Internet are factored in, the numbers could easily range from $25,000 to $10+ million per hour.
