CISM 2022: IT Service & Data Availability

Ensuring IT service and data high availability can reduce downtime and increase business productivity. The configurations put in place to achieve high availability align with standard business continuity requirements.

In this course you will discover the importance of high availability as it relates to business objectives. Begin by exploring load balancing as a method of optimizing application performance and availability. Next you will learn how to deploy a cloud-based application load balancing solution. Examine various backup types such as differential and incremental in order to adhere to the Recovery Point Objective (RPO). Then configure backup for Windows Server and for Microsoft Azure resources and find out how redundant array of inexpensive disks (RAID) levels apply to data availability and resiliency to disk failures. Finally configure software RAID on the Windows and Linux platforms and enable availability in the cloud by enabling storage account and virtual machine replication.

This course can be used to prepare for the Certified Information Security Manager (CISM) exam.
