Disaster Recovery as a Service Cost UK: What Businesses Should Pay
Disaster recovery as a service is the hardest IT line to benchmark: per-VM subscriptions, per-gigabyte replication fees and bespoke managed quotes that cannot be compared. This guide puts real UK figures on all of them — Azure Site Recovery at £18.81 per VM, AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery at $0.028 per server hour, the £25–£75 managed band, a fully worked 40-VM budget (£979 to £5,250 a month depending on route), and the hidden costs of testing, failback egress and duplicated licences that never appear on the first quote.
